We're at the point in the fantasy football draft season where we won't overanalyze things. The goal is for players to remain healthy for the rest of the preseason, with signs pointing to these players being regular starters in our fantasy lineups. Most of these players we highlight will come from the early to middle […]

Even though it's always nice to have a bell-cow running back who dominates touches, you don't want to miss out on alpha wide receivers, either. These are pass-catchers who can dominate target share, giving you an ideal combination of weekly floor and ceiling. In this column, I'll choose six alpha wide receivers to target for […]

Earlier this week, I wrote about wide receivers who stand to benefit this season as a result of roster turnover in the offseason. Now, it's time to look at the tight ends and running backs who could also see an uptick in usage in 2026. We tend to focus on targets and air yards for […]

The biggest edge in fantasy football is uncovering undervalued players with the greatest opportunities. This article will focus on the running back position; guys being drafted outside the top 24. For one reason or another, these five players are going later in fantasy drafts than they should be. That presents an opportunity for you, the […]

As we inch closer to the start of another NFL season, now is a good time to ramp up preparations for your annual fantasy football draft.

Every year, only a few players end up becoming legit difference-makers in the fantasy football season. Not to say sleepers and late-round picks don’t matter, but they don’t move the needle as much as we make them out to. ESPN data showed that only five players were found on 20 percent or more of championship […]

One more weekend. Then we can sit back, watch some football games, and enjoy reaping the rewards of all our fantasy football draft preparations! But we're not there just yet. I've done dozens of best ball drafts and several industry drafts, but I still have two of my most important drafts ahead of me -- […]

Zero RB is a draft strategy where you wait until after the sixth round to select your first running back. The goal here is to load up your wide receiver room, along with adding an elite quarterback and/or tight end before taking the most volatile position in fantasy football, running back. From there, you can […]

We're in the heart of draft season right now. Most fantasy football drafts will happen this week, so it's the perfect time for me to highlight my All-Breakout team.

We have reached the final draft weekend before Week 1 starts. At RotoBaller HQ, we published rankings for PPR and Half-PPR formats, and now it's time to focus on standard leagues.

In this piece, we will spotlight some of the top "league-winners" at the quarterback position who you can find within these parts of the […]

Breakouts win leagues. Fantasy football differs from other sports in the sense that a few players really can make-or-break your week and season. It is not like baseball, where you want to build a deep team to compete over a very long season. In football, the lineup is smaller, and the scoring is more big-play […]

The wide receiver position seems to produce excellent values, and even a few league-winners in the later rounds of drafts or even among those wideouts who aren't drafted in most fantasy football leagues. A big part of the appeal of drafting multiple running backs early in redraft leagues is that their roles are usually more […]
