One of the biggest edges that fantasy managers can unlock is nailing the quarterback position. Finding a player who can elevate fantasy scoring as both a passer and rusher has long been a cheat code in fantasy football. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been one of those cheat codes throughout his career. 2025 was […]

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) suffered a massive ankle injury in Week 3 of 2025 that saw him carted off the field, unable to walk under his own power. He was later placed on season-ending injured reserve. It seemed like it could be the end of his career, as he's now 31 years […]

We're heading into Week 6 for fantasy football, and most of us are almost halfway through our regular season. We've entered the window where we need to decide if we're disappointed or concerned about well-known players who are underperforming.

Throughout the season, we'll dig into the weekly mechanics of building winning rosters. We're here to help you take down your Week 6 matchup! RotoBaller analyst Jorden Hill drops his MUST START DEFENSE (D/ST) units for […]

Last week’s bold predictions weren’t perfect, but I deserve credit for my LSU-Kentucky overtime call. After a week of college football that was even crazier than I could have predicted, I’m ready to call some more crazy shots for Week 7. This weekend’s slate has the potential to be season-defining for a number of teams. […]

Several key players are back in action this week after being on a bye, but a new group of must-start players is out of action. Bye weeks are impacting lineups significantly, and we're here to help you find the top available options. Below are our top 400 college fantasy football rankings for Week 7. RotoBaller's […]

With four teams on bye weeks in Week 6 and injuries continuing to pile up each week, fantasy football teams are being stretched to show off their depth as we near the middle of the fantasy football regular season. As you work through your roster choices each week, it's imperative to have depth options available, […]

It's finally time! My projections are built, rankings are done (well, for now), and I am ready to dive headlong into my content series that will lead you up to the start of the 2026 fantasy basketball season. My rankings and projections for the top 200 players have been live for about a week and […]

This year's rookie class has a ton of hype surrounding it, and rightfully so. We are all collectively excited about the NBA debuts of Cameron Boozer, A.J. Dybantsa, Caleb Wilson, and Darryn Peterson (among others). But let's not overlook last year's rookies either. Cooper Flagg has already established himself as a first- or second-round pick […]

Week 5 saw yet another coveted FAAB target go down hurt in Will Shipley, which makes for three weeks where a buzzy add has gone down, but at least he scored first! While we can avoid getting overeager about players with pre-existing (and reported) injuries by the time waivers run, there's only so much we […]

If you're not punting in Head-to-Head leagues, are you even trying? Punting categories is all the rage, and when you boil it down to the idea that you just need to win five out of nine categories when it comes time for the fantasy playoffs, it makes a lot of sense and can be a […]

What the heck is a Post-Hype Breakout? For this piece, we will define a Post-Hype Breakout as a player who was either over-drafted the prior year (or years) or has simply been forgotten by time, but is now ready to break out in a big way. A fantastic exercise during fantasy draft season is to […]

Everyone always wants to know who you are drafting first. The fantasy community simply cannot get enough content on the 15 best players in the world. I am absolutely guilty of feeding that machine, too. Come a little closer, now, and soak in the worst-kept secret in fantasy basketball. The truly fun part of your draft […]

Like any analyst worth his salt, I make fantasy basketball rankings. I just happen to make mine with containers! The concept of the "Bucket" is pretty straightforward, at least in theory. Players are separated into tiers based on where I see quantifiable drop-offs. The tiers function like a rankings list, but with a bit more […]

Another week of the 2026 NFL season is complete, as a busy Week 5 brought plenty of action. While plenty of questions have been answered, many more remain regarding fantasy football, as injuries continue to pile up, committees cause confusion for fantasy managers, and surprise players step up and perform. As RotoBaller does each and […]

Week 6 of the NFL season kicks off Thursday night as the reigning Super Bowl Champions will travel to Denver to face the Broncos. In addition to our start/sit recommendation and matchup ratings for each player, you can also read the fantasy football outlooks for key players like RJ Harvey, Emanuel Wilson, J.K. Dobbins, Jaylen […]

Many experts subscribe to the theory that one good pick typically cannot win your league, but one bad pick just might lose it. This may be more appropriate for picks made in the first two or three rounds, but grabbing a player who lays an egg feels terrible no matter the round. Below, we will take […]

If I am being honest (and I really try to be), I wasn't sure if I'd have the time or energy to finish this research project, compile my results, and share them with you before the season started. But the reaction to the first part of this series was so awesome that I decided I […]

The football season is well underway. That means teams, both real-life and fantasy, are dealing with injuries and ineffectiveness that could derail their season. NFL teams are always churning through free agency to find running back depth as they work to address injuries. Sometimes teams look at players who are young and looking for their […]

Once again, the waiver wire isn't necessarily loaded with must-add players, but fantasy managers who remain proactive and find sneaky upside plays each week are usually the ones competing for a championship in the end. We're here to help guide your Week 6 decisions with our RotoBaller Staff waiver wire picks, including Samaje Perine, Darius […]

If you ask every NFL fan who their team's most beloved player is, you are likely to get an immediate answer. Favorite players often include legendary quarterbacks, players who made big-time plays, and simple fan favorites who pleased the crowd. For many fanbases, these players are unanimous in their selection. Below, we will attempt to […]

As is always the case in this article, we're looking a week ahead, focusing on defenses rostered in fewer than 30% of Yahoo! leagues, giving you some potential options on the […]

Week 5 in the NFL was a bit of a slog. The early games did not feature many points scored, and the later games featured a handful of blowouts. However, a lot of movement occurred this week. The clash between the Seahawks and 49ers did not disappoint, with San Francisco emerging victorious. Elsewhere, the Chargers […]

Hey RotoBallers! Another week of NFL action is behind us, which means it's time to turn our attention to the waiver wire. In the opening month of the season, we have learned the importance of stashing, as many "backups" have become lineup locks, like Emanuel Wilson. Below, we will look at some sneaky high-upside stashes […]

The Philadelphia Eagles flew to London last week, and even a change in country couldn't stop the injuries from continuing to pile up. After starting the year 2-0, the team has lost three straight after the Jaguars kicked a last-second field goal to win, 19-17. While Dallas Goedert (knee) returned in that loss, DeVonta Smith […]

New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) finished as the RB10 overall in PPR fantasy football leagues last season. He rushed 260 times for 1,107 yards and seven touchdowns and caught 36 passes for 292 yards and six touchdowns. He also only fumbled one time. He seemed to have everything you want in […]
