Who to Buy in the 49ers Offense

The 2018 San Francisco 49ers may have been one of the bigger disappointments to fantasy owners. Much was to be expected from Jimmy Garoppolo and this offense led by Kyle Shanahan. All that seemed to come crashing down just three games into the season as Garoppolo lost to a knee injury. The entire offense then […]

Rookie Spotlight - Drew Lock

As we often have said on the RotoBaller afternoon show on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio, mock drafts prior to the NFL Draft are just exercises full of swings and misses.

Rookie Spotlight - Josh Jacobs

After our recent RotoBaller rookie dynasty draft, organizer and lead editor Pierre Camus asked us if we could conceivably select one position to pick from, where would it be? My answer was easy, although it sounded amateurish at first: Give me the first pick. Not because of the pomp and circumstance surrounding it. I want […]

Just a Sophomore Slump - Third-Year Players Who Will Rebound in 2019

Will Arizona's New Offense Rise Like a Phoenix?

I think that there are times when we fantasy football writers need to own up to our past mistakes.

No, I mean when we get things very wrong, as I did back […]

Rookie Spotlight - D.K. Metcalf

The Seahawks appeared to pull off a very nifty move in the 2019 NFL Draft when they traded up to the 64th pick to nab Mississippi WR D.K. Metcalf. Widely regarded as one of the top wideouts available, there was much speculation he would be picked in the first round. When he started to drop […]

Rookie Wide Receivers Set to Make a Splash in 2019

The 2019 NFL Draft saw 28 wide receivers find homes with NFL teams. A handful others were added as undrafted free agents. The influx of new talent into the league every year always has an effect on the players already there. It goes without saying that most of the rookie WRs will have no impact […]

Teams That Won and Lost the 2019 NFL Draft

If the 2019 NFL Draft took place 10 years ago, with the exact same pool of players to choose from, Kyler Murray would not have been the first overall pick. He would likely not have been the first quarterback taken, and perhaps would not have been drafted in the first round. He is short in […]

All three were drafted in 2017 but did […]
