IDP One-Man Mock With Multiple Personalities

For those of you in fantasy football IDP leagues (Individual Defensive Player), it can be hard to find content that helps you decide when you should draft defenders in your drafts, and when you should expect others to select them. To help you through this process, we are going to conduct a one-man mock with IDP players […]

Is Hopkins' Fantasy Potential Nuk'd in Arizona?

Wide receivers changing teams is often a red flag for fantasy owners. Learning a new offensive scheme while simultaneously attempting to mesh with a new quarterback can lead to unpredictable hiccups when projecting players in unfamiliar situations. In fact, since 2015, no player other than Brandin Cooks has changed teams and still finished as a […]

One-Man Backfields to Chase in 2020

We're talking about fantasy football here, and in fantasy, volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a great running back in an RBBC backfield and his volume--and thus his […]

Sophomore RBs Set to Bust Again in 2020

One of the more difficult things to do in fantasy football is to predict player fluctuation every year. For every player who you can depend on each season (like Ezekiel Elliott), there is another that is extremely productive seemingly out of nowhere (DeVante Parker). The ability to avoid potential landmines is almost more important than […]

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 […]

Who Replaces Deebo Samuel in the 49ers Offense?

In the midst of a quiet portion of the early NFL offseason, the defending NFC champs were dealt a blow to their chances of returning to the big game. During a workout with teammates on June 18, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel injured his foot. As it turns out, Samuel suffered a broken […]

Justin Jefferson - Fantasy Football Rookie Profile

For the past three seasons, the Minnesota Vikings had one of the better starting WR duos in the league when their top two targets were on the field together. Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen presented major challenges for opposing secondaries. But during the 2019 season, Diggs openly expressed unhappiness with his role in the offense, […]

The King's Keeper Corner: Offseason Trade Strategies, Reader Mailbag

With not much activity going on in dynasty and keeper leagues right now, some fantasy players are getting antsy. Others are always trying to make trades to the point where they overdo it and never settle on an ideal roster. Yes, you should always look to improve your team in any format.  But there are […]

Atlanta Falcons 2020 Fantasy Outlook

The Atlanta Falcons have been struggling to advance in the playoffs since the 2016 season when they made the Super Bowl and the “comeback” happened (sorry Falcon fans). 2019 was the second consecutive year the team missed the playoffs, and coach Dan Quinn is certainly on the hot seat once again this season. The defense […]

Dynasty Market Watch: NFC North

The NFC North has been predominately known as the defensive division in the conference. But in recent seasons, we have seen the less great play from the defenses which has opened the door to increased opportunities for fantasy scoring. In 2019, those offenses took a step back, whether it be due to injuries (Minnesota Vikings/Detroit […]

This season I will be implementing a new fantasy football strategy. If you have been keeping up with this series, you know that by now! But for those who haven’t, I can give you a quick recap! My strategy is to build a safe base in the early rounds and then target pure upside players. […]

New England Patriots: Should We Avoid Them All In Fantasy?

Yes. That's the short answer but, of course, it is not so simple. Here, we will look at some players you may actually want to consider in fantasy drafts. It is tough to think of the New England Patriots as a fantasy wasteland. They have been so good for so long. Their dynasty may (finally) […]

Running Back Standard Rankings, Tiers and Analysis

In the NFL, everyone knows that quarterback is the most vital positions to the success of their team. But in fantasy football, the most vital position is running back, with seven of our top nine ranked players at the position. That's especially true in standard scoring leagues. It's such a relief to have one of […]

RB Handcuffs to Target: NFC Edition

Imagine the feeling of using your early start-up draft pick on a bell-cow running back. He is a lock to get a majority of your team’s carries. He is going to be a major factor in the receiving game. Heck, he may just mess around and lead the league in rushing touchdowns because he is […]

Detroit Lions 2020 Fantasy Outlook

The Detroit Lions are the definition of mediocre in the NFL. Look no further than a string of average records in each of the past eight seasons (sans 2014). The Lions finished at the bottom of the NFC North in 2019, going 3-12. It’s no surprise that coach Matt Patricia has his job on the […]

Deshaun Watson Will Be the Overall QB1 in 2020

Deshaun Watson has established himself as one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL. His dual-threat, playmaking ability has translated particularly well in fantasy football. In his three year career, Watson has averaged 24.12 (1st), 20.73 (4th), and 22.13 points per game (2nd), making him one of the most coveted quarterbacks in fantasy drafts.  But […]

Dynasty Price Check: Antonio Brown

On June 12, 2020, seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Antonio Brown plead no contest to three different criminal charges. With no outstanding legal charges against the free-agent wide receiver, it may clear the way for teams to begin looking at signing him.

Later-Round WRs with Upside and Safer WRs to Avoid

If you've read my recent articles or watched the RotoBaller Youtube channel, you already know my new draft strategy for 2020. My plan is to get a safe base in the early rounds and then strictly target players that have upside. The reason is twofold: if those upside fliers don’t work out, I can drop […]

Best-Ball Tight Ends: Finding Sleepers with "12" Personnel

You have to draft at least two players at each position -- yes, even defense and (blech) kicker -- to cover your best-ball roster because you can't make in-season moves. I'm not one to draft two tight ends in most typical leagues, but I will in TE-bonus setups like FFPC contests, the Scott Fish Bowl, and […]

Fantasy Football is a fantastic game to play. It brings friends together throughout the season and keeps that contact with one another. As you may have realized by now (especially if you follow me on Twitter) I'm based in the UK, where NFL and fantasy football, in particular, is growing. However, with more new people getting […]

Born to Run: Why You Should Go RB/RB in Rounds 1 and 2

The draft strategies we implement in our fantasy drafts can change from season to season. One year it will be advantageous to load up with wide receivers early in the draft and the following it’s best to draft heavy at running back. This is because the player pool is always changing. We always have a handful […]
