WR/TE Stat Analysis: Catch Rate and Drawn Pass Interference

When it comes to drafting stud wide receivers and tight ends, we all pursue the same stats: receptions, yards, and touchdowns. It makes sense. Those three stats are the ones that ultimately yield actual, tangible fantasy points in every fantasy league, no matter the format. The savviest fantasy GMs often focus on targets, as without […]

Rookie Tight Ends in Best Fantasy Situations (Post-Draft)

Rookie tight ends have it tough as it is, so the only way they are going to post decent numbers that will help fantasy football managers is by being in great situations. First-year tight ends usually struggle in their first year in the NFL, whether they are first-round picks or seventh-round picks. Look at last […]

Old Faces, New Places: Free Agent Risers

There is no way to describe the average NFL front office. Each franchise has its own set of rules, follows different parameters when evaluating players, and builds its roster in a very particular way. Even with a clear mindset, an organization's principles might be tweaked in order to accommodate players into the salary cap, for […]

Trimming the Fat - FFPC Best Ball Slim Draft Strategy (WR/TE)

I mentioned the below in part one of this series, but in case this is your first time seeing an article on this, I thought I'd keep the intro the same. If this feels repetitive, feel free to skip down to the wide receiver portion of the article. Perhaps the most popular format in FFPC […]

Running Back Stat Busts - Missed Tackles Forced

Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season. Especially in the case of running backs, considering overall elusiveness is arguably the best way to determine how good (or bad) a player's performance was. And that's what this is all about. I will […]

Trimming the Fat - FFPC Best Ball Slim Draft Strategy (QB/RB)

Perhaps the most popular format in FFPC Best Ball leagues is their 28-round 12-team team formats. These leagues follow a relatively standard roster format, requiring you to start the following on a weekly basis: 1 Quarterback 2 Running Backs 2 Wide Receivers 1 Tight End 2 Flex 1 Kicker 1 Defense They are a lot […]

Coaching Matters: 2021 Tennessee Titans Coaching Staff Preview

After every NFL season, NFL teams take the time to evaluate not only the players but also the coaching staff and front office as well. While many teams choose to retain the same head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator, a few other teams opt to go in a new direction with their coaching staff. […]

UDFA Running Backs To Watch In Dynasty

One of the biggest names in the fantasy game last year was Jaguars running back James Robinson, who went from UDFA to fantasy stud out of nowhere. Or at least it was out of nowhere if you didn't read last year's version of my UDFA to watch piece, where I mentioned Robinson. (Note: I also […]

UDFA Pass Catchers To Watch In Dynasty

One place where fantasy value can be found is in the large crop of players who sign as undrafted free agents. Just because a receiver wasn't taken in the first seven rounds doesn't mean that they aren't good players. Often, very talented players don't hear their names called during the draft, but they'll latch on […]

Early 2021 Breakouts: Tight End

It is never too early to check a crystal ball to see what the future might hold --- especially in fantasy football. Detroit’s T.J. Hockenson had an injury-marred rookie campaign in 2019 that ruined the title hopes of many fantasy general managers, but the former first-round pick rebounded like Dennis Rodman in his sophomore season. […]

Early 2021 Breakouts: Quarterback

While it is early yet - no training camp, no OTAs, no pre-draft trades, is it really ever too early for fantasy predictions? Potential moves involving superstars Deshaun Watson or Aaron Rodgers could definitely shake things up. But for now, don't count the following gentlemen out as quarterbacks who could carry your fantasy team. Change […]

NFL Draft Winners - Dynasty League Risers

After countless mocks, rampant speculation, and media smokescreens, the 2021 NFL Draft proved unpredictable as ever. Several teams got what they hope is their eventual franchise quarterback. Running backs continue to be devalued while wide receivers flew off the board early and often. The subsequent domino effect on veteran players will shake things up for […]

Running Back Stat Sleepers - Elusiveness Rating

A lot of elements go into making a running back desirable for fantasy football. Opportunity, a good offensive line, and a good offense are all key elements. However, something equally important is how elusive those running backs are, this includes breaking tackles and gaining yards after contact. Often players who have these traits fall into […]

Daniel Jones Set Up for Success - Will It Work?

Given his status as a surprising top-10 pick in the 2019 NFL draft and a relatively successful rookie season, the 2020 season was seen as a make-or-break year for Daniel Jones for many NFL fans. Unfortunately, Jones (and the Giant’s offense as a whole) struggled to take the next step around the second-year signal-caller. The […]

NFL Draft Reaction - RB ADP Fallers

I am going to start this column by introducing the concept of ADP, which I'm pretty sure you are already familiar with. Just in case you're not, Average Draft Position (ADP) indicates the average position where a player is drafted over more than one fantasy football draft. You can consider it as the price you […]

Which Rookie QB Can Turn Their Franchise Around?

Last Thursday, the annual NFL Draft happened in Cleveland, but you know this already, reader. And you also know that the Jaguars drafted Trevor Lawrence with the No. 1 overall pick. You also know that five quarterbacks were taken in the first round. But, will any of those players be able to turn around the […]

Late-Round Rookie RB Targets for FFPC Best Ball

The NFL Draft has officially concluded, and we've celebrated and wept as new player values were realized (Myles Gaskin) while others feel as if they've faded into the abyss (James Robinson). In regards to rookies, a rather underwhelming draft class led to several running backs falling to the much later rounds or going undrafted altogether. […]

NFL Draft Reaction - RB ADP Risers

We've already looked at QB ADP Risers and TE ADP Risers following the 2021 NFL Draft. Now, let's look at the most heavily-scrutinized position of all - running back.
