The 2025 rookie class of running backs generated considerable excitement throughout the fantasy community surrounding their entrance into the NFL. Enthusiasm surged due to the exceptional depth within this talented class, as a group of these newcomers appeared destined to deliver sustained value to managers who selected them during the 2025 draft season. One year later, […]

The 2026 NFL season may still be a few months away, but there's no better time than the present to prepare for your redraft fantasy football leagues. Having already completed at least 50 drafts, I can tell you the back end of this year's running back landscape is particularly interesting. Today, we'll look at eight […]

Your Google or Outlook calendar is now displaying the month of July, which obviously means that the preseason for fantasy football has started. From a fantasy perspective, that means we have arrived at our version of training camp, in the weeks before most players do the bulk of their drafting. Of course, many high-stakes players […]

Often, fantasy football managers put too much emphasis on hitting in the first couple of rounds of their drafts. While it is important to avoid early round busts, it’s nearly impossible to be crowned a champion without a little late-round help. With June now behind us, all 32 teams will begin their training camps in […]

Finding league-winning value at wide receiver is all about identifying talented players before the rest of your league catches on. Half of this year's ADP top four -- Puka Nacua and Amon-Ra St. Brown -- were once considered deep sleepers. Are the sleeper names on this list going to become All-Pro wide receivers and recurring […]

Summer is in full swing. Hopefully you’re making the most of it and have enjoyed a few trips and grilled a few hot dogs along the way. As summer moves along, that means NFL training camps and preseason games are now just a few weeks away. It also means fantasy football drafts will be here […]

This article is back for the third year in a row. Alvin Kamara and Javonte Williams were hits in the 2025 edition, while Joe Mixon and James Conner were not so much (but that was mostly due to injury). As always, with many of my articles, I won't highlight the obvious players who fit the […]

This article highlights five of the top rookie targets for the 2026 fantasy football season. These players stand out because of their talent, opportunity, and late-season upside, but they are not the only rookies worth drafting. Rookies can change fantasy seasons. In dynasty leagues, they are the most important selections of every rookie draft. In […]

No fantasy football leagues are won because of which players fantasy managers draft in the first, second, or third rounds. Championships are won because of the golden gems drafted in the late rounds -- and I am not talking about kickers. It is easy for fantasy footballers to draft the likes of Atlanta’s Bijan Robinson, […]

The resurgence of running backs in fantasy football was clear in 2025 and will have a major impact on fantasy football managers in 2026. However, NFL teams have also gotten better (and smarter) at splitting their backfields to keep players fresh and maximize efficiency. Identifying and attacking those edges is a way for fantasy managers […]

Cincinnati Bengals top target Ja’Marr Chase is the No. 1-ranked wide receiver in dynasty fantasy football leagues heading into the upcoming NFL season. Case closed. And why shouldn’t Chase be numero uno? The last two seasons, he has racked up 252 receptions for 3,120 receiving yards and 25 touchdowns. He led the league in targets […]

Every season, some players go so late in fantasy football drafts and eventually emerge as league winners. Players like Drake Maye, Javonte Williams, Alec Pierce, and Harold Fannin Jr. were some of the late-round steals in fantasy drafts last summer. This year, more late-round steals will emerge. In this article, we'll dive into the eight […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers -- it's time for another edition of our updated fantasy football rookie rankings for single-QB leagues.

We're here to help you make the right picks […]

It is almost time for fantasy football drafts to start. This means it is time to find out which rookies are worth taking and which ones should be left in the queue. July 6 starts the Scott Fish Bowl. It's the official start of the fantasy football season. There are 22 rounds, and many players […]

To define breakouts, we're looking at players who haven't yet scored 200 fantasy football points. The 200 fantasy point threshold is often a marker for a breakout season since it weeds out the points per game monsters, who scored well in 2-3 games. Besides the 200 fantasy point threshold, finding players within their first 3-5 […]

With the NFL calendar turning its page from the 2025 season onto the 2026 season and with the NFL Draft and free agency now in the rearview mirror, it’s time to focus on the most recent fluctuations in the dynasty market, particularly that of the running back position. While many fantasy assets, especially those of […]

Some NFL teams have the same WR1 year-over-year. Puka Nacua, Ja'Marr Chase, and Amon-Ra St. Brown come to mind. These guys aren't going anywhere, and they're set to produce for fantasy teams once again in 2026. Other teams turn over more often, either via trades, free agency, or the NFL Draft. New players assume new […]
