Early 2020 Breakouts: Wide Receiver
What was once the frenetic pace of free agency has now slowed significantly. But the player movement that took place has transformed the fantasy landscape. It has also blended with the impending NFL Draft to impact the decision-making process of owners, regardless of which formats you are involved with. That’s why the team at RotoBaller is delivering […]

Deeper Draft Sleepers - Third Base
Entering the 2020 MLB season, third base is arguably the deepest fantasy position on the diamond. 16 of the top 100 players are 3B-eligible, according to NFBC ADP. Compare that to a normally deep hitting position like first base, where just 11 guys make the cut. What that early depth does, specifically for standard leagues, […]

Running Back Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis

First Basemen Likely to Return A Loss in 2020
We all dream of drafting the sleeper pick who vastly outproduce his draft-day value and carries our team to victory. However, the truth is that those types of selections are few and far between. Often a player will give you more value than you would normally expect from his draft slot, but it's likely only […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Colts

Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis
Just a year ago, we were bemoaning how boring the tight end position was in fantasy football. There was Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, George Kittle and a bunch of scrubs. Everyone else was lumped into an unappealing mass of nonproductivity. Then the season came and names like Darren Waller and Austin Hooper emerged as studs, not […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Chiefs
The Chiefs offense was not the juggernaut last season that we saw in 2018, but the team capped off the year with a Super Bowl title. Will we get a championship hangover from the team or will we see closer to the highly productive fantasy scoring team from the year prior in 2020? Will the […]

Engel's Angles: Ways To Keep Fantasy Fires Burning During Sports Outages
