Everyone has their favorite approach to drafting their teams in this wonderful game of fantasy football.

The 2026 season is quickly approaching as fantasy football managers gear up for their drafts. While most managers focus on early round players and maybe a few deep sleepers, the ones who win leagues dominate the mid-rounds.

It's usually pretty easy to find players that you like for the upcoming season and provide all the reasons why fantasy managers should draft those players. But writing about which players to fade can be a bit more challenging. Don't get me wrong, there are certainly some things to like about the players that I'm […]

Each year, many fantasy gamers make the mistake of largely ignoring the later rounds of their drafts. They wrongfully assume these picks are meaningless and don't put much effort into making them. What these managers fail to realize is that there are still a plethora of players in the latter stages of drafts who could […]

Check out my early-round targets and mid-round targets for a good overview of the players I want to build my fantasy football teams around this season. You'll notice there are no […]

Every NFL season, there are a handful of players who do special things around the league. Cooper Kupp's 2021 Triple Crown, Saquon Barkley's 2024 2,000-yard season, and Peyton Manning's 2013 5,000-yard season all come to mind. Those are performances that will live in infamy forever and were not predictive. Those aforementioned season-long performances are indicative […]

Josh Allen has owned the quarterback position in fantasy for the last several years. He has finished as the QB1 or QB2 for six straight seasons. An impressive streak, to say the least. He is virtually untouchable because of his unbelievable rushing touchdown volume and elite passing skills. However, there tends to be a rotating […]

Throwing for 4,000 yards is the standard for upper-echelon quarterbacks in the NFL. Much like 1,000-yard seasons are the standard for running backs and wide receivers, 4,000-yard seasons from quarterbacks are indicative of a solid-to-great season. Players such as Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes II, and Josh Allen regularly achieve the feat. Behind them is often […]

The process for identifying rebound candidates involves examining players who underperformed or were inefficient. It could be for various reasons, like an injury, the offensive environment, or small samples. These potential rebound candidates fit those molds. When other players rise, some may fall, including ones on their own teams. It can be tricky to figure […]

Let's start this article with an immediate peek behind the curtain. My must-draft, my guys, league-winners, whatever vernacular you use, have changed again and again. Rough draft after rough draft.

As much as I love talking about all my favorite draft-day sleepers and targets, in this article I will be selecting five overvalued wide receivers who fantasy managers should avoid. All these wide receivers are solid talents, but they come with significant risk at average draft position (ADP). Sometimes it's the offensive environment, the quarterback, […]

Late-round running backs aren’t fillers. They’re calculated shots at players who have a realistic path to becoming 200-, 250-, or even 300-touch contributors, with the best late-round targets often checking more than one box. When evaluating backup running backs, I’m looking for four specific categories that create that path: the 1B/standalone value back, the ambiguous […]

Hey RotoBallers! The kicker position is often the most frustrating position in fantasy.

In this piece, we […]
