Nick Mariano's PPR Sleepers List (Premium Content)
All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. It'd be nice if we could avoid the word "sleeper" because it feels as though it has lost its meaning over the years, but SEO practices and the language of the fantasy landscape demands it. I believe it's important for each article to spell out […]

2017 Late Round Fliers for Fantasy Football Drafts (Premium Content)
All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. A good fantasy football player has a specific plan of attack for the later rounds of a draft. These aren't throw away picks. Or at least, they don't have to be if you study up and have an idea about which players have a […]

Best-Ball Sleepers - Who to Target Past Round 10 in MFL10 (Premium Content)
All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. I like to view best ball leagues as two 10-round drafts. In the first "draft" you are picking proven players who can carry you week to week and present lower risk. There isn't a ton of value to be found here as most players […]

2017 NFL Team Outlook - Oakland Raiders
The Oakland Raiders come into this season as one of the favorites to challenge the Patriots in the AFC, and according to David Purdum of ESPN, the Raiders have received the most Super Bowl bets at some Las Vegas sportsbooks. Their odds have gone from 20-1 to 6-1, at some casinos. They finished last season […]

RotoBaller PPR Mock Draft Recap - Rounds 2-3
Hallelujah, we’ve officially entered fantasy football draft season!

2017 NFL Team Outlook - Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers, along with a handful of other teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers, have consistently been front and center in the fantasy universe for the past eight or nine years.

2017 NFL Team Outlook - Houston Texans
At first glance, the 2017 Houston Texans don't look like a fantasy football powerhouse. Despite making the playoffs last season, the team finished 29th in both passing yards and total yards. Behind quarterback Brock Osweiler, the team struggled to move the ball, struggled to score, and struggled to avoid turnovers. In 2017, though, Osweiler is […]

Fantasy Football Auction Values Analysis - PPR Leagues
Auctions really don't get enough love. I am so much more excited for my auction drafts than I am for my snake drafts. There are a handful of players I am way more bullish on than consensus (which you'll see later on in this analysis) and in an auction, I know I have full control over […]

RotoBaller PPR Mock Draft Recap - First Round Recap
With fantasy draft season in full swing, it's time to dive into another one of RotoBaller's mock drafts. It's interesting to see the differences in these results compared to our Way Too Early Mock Draft in March. The settings for our "Mock Draft 2.0" were pretty straight forward: 12 teams, PPR scoring, QB, RB, RB, […]

2017 NFL Team Outlook - Carolina Panthers
2017 is an odd year, which means the Carolina Panthers should be good. They've improved their win total by at least four games in each odd year of the Ron Rivera era. The Panthers are 27-5 in the past two odd years. While the odd/even year theory is most likely just coincidence, it's hard to imagine […]

Fantasy Spin - Ezekiel Elliott's Suspension
Feel those shock waves? That's the fallout from the announcement that Ezekiel Elliott will be suspended the first six games of the 2017 season, stemming from allegations of domestic violence that occurred before his rookie season.

Three Ways You're Screwing Up Zero RB... and How To Fix Them
In 2016 Zero RB was the dominant draft strategy for most fantasy football players. For many drafters the strategy fell flat on it's face and they gave up on it after one try.

Names in this class like Leonard Fournette, Christain […]

Pay Up! - Auction Draft Strategies
I did my first auction draft back in 2010. It was an unmitigated disaster. I had gone into the draft very familiar with player values and I refused to overspend. I ended up with a fantastic team...if you could start every player on a 16-man roster! The All-Value team failed spectacularly because everyone was good, […]
