Welcome back RotoBallers! Below you will find our staff's updated 2020 fantasy football rankings (top 450) for standard scoring formats. For those who are not familiar, standard scoring is the default for many providers and means that skill players do not receive any extra points for receptions. These rankings are being released after the conclusion of the 2020 […]

Jerick McKinnon (RB, SF) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted) ANALYSIS: Jerick McKinnon is one of the most gifted athletes to step foot on a football field this century. The problem is that he has not played a single snap of regular season football for the 49ers in his two years with the team. After being […]

Dolphins See Lynn Bowden Jr. As Wide Receiver Option

This makes more sense. The Miami Dolphins traded for rookie running back Lynn Bowden Jr. on Saturday, seemingly complicating a backfield that already had Jordan Howard and Matt Breida. But reports indicate that the team believes Bowden can play wide receiver for them, a position he's played during his college career. Miami is shallow at […]

Raiders Trade Lynn Bowden Jr. To Dolphins

The Las Vegas Raiders have traded rookie running back Lynn Bowden Jr. and a sixth-round pick to the Miami Dolphins for a fourth-round pick. Vegas is set at running back with Josh Jacobs and solid backups like Jalen Richard and Devontae Booker, while the Dolphins have spent the past few seasons struggling with their running […]

Matt Breida (RB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~95 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~110 ANALYSIS: Miami could have thrown the 2019 season down the sink, but even with their middling roster and chances at achieving anything of substance they played for the win every single week and finished with a 5-11 record on the season. The rebuilding effort keeps as active […]

Josh Rosen Released By Miami

The Miami Dolphins have released quarterback Josh Rosen, which means that if Rosen is on an NFL roster this year, it'll be the third team in three years for the 2018 first-round pick. It's been a sharp fall for Rosen, who has completed just 54.8 percent of his passes in his two seasons, with 12 […]

Dolphins Fielding Trade Offers For Josh Rosen

The Miami Dolphins have fielded trade inquiries in recent days on former first-round quarterback Josh Rosen, according to league sources. Rookie Tua Tagovailoa has looked healthy in training camp, making third-stringer Rosen expendable, with a moving possibly coming this weekend. The former first-round pick of the Cardinals in 2018 has no future in Miami with […]

Coaching Matters: AFC East Play-Calling Impact on RBs

In the next installment of this series, we will look at the AFC East. Catch up on the rest so far by reading about the NFC East, NFC West, NFC North, and NFC South. This division is interesting as three of the head coaches in it come from defensive-minded backgrounds: Sean McDermott, Bill Belichick, and Brian […]

Updated Running Back Draft Rankings - Standard Scoring (Non-PPR)

The NFL might be a quarterback-driven, pass-first league these days, but you are not going to win a fantasy football league without a decent running back corps. Even though more NFL teams are going with a running-back-by-committee philosophy rather than relying on a running back to be a three-down workhorse, fantasy rosters have to be […]

Boom or Bust WR Predictions: Brandin Cooks, DeVante Parker, Calvin Ridley

There is a tremendous amount of depth at the wide receiver position in fantasy football this season. At the same time, the trend of NFL teams using the running back by committee approach is making it harder and harder to find a bell-cow running back these days. Consequently, most football players have justifiably abandoned the […]

San Francisco 49ers Defense (D/ST, SF) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 16.3 (2nd D/ST) ANALYSIS: This pick should be no surprise, as it is the second-most-expensive among D/ST. But if you can get to the last rounds with the unit available you better get it. The 49ers rode a ball-hawking and dominant defense to the Super Bowl last year and it’s hard to point […]

The King's RotoBaller Challenge Draft Review

Fantasy Football is unique and often wonderful in how it can connect people and bring them together. The community aspect of the game has always made it so appealing, and it creates and sustains friendships and unique bonds. This is very evident when you consider how many people have office leagues, family leagues, and of […]

Updated Wide Receiver PPR Draft Rankings and Analysis

Saddle up, PPR drafters! Here’s your all-inclusive reference for each tier of receivers throughout your draft. We’re looking at how safe each receiver is, their potential upside (or lack thereof) and if they have a chance to jump up a tier in the receiver hierarchy or if they belong in the one below. Snagging a […]

The King's Updated Fantasy Football One-Man Mock Draft

This is my updated and final one-man mock exercise of the preseason. I put myself in the draft chairs and minds of every participant in an advance look at the 2020 campaign. The four rounds of this early one-man mock are based on a 12-team, full PPR format. I have considered roster structure for each […]

Updated Tight End PPR Draft Rankings and Analysis

For the first time in what feels like an eternity, there are more than five tight ends to get excited about heading into a fantasy football season! Breakout seasons from Mark Andrews, Darren Waller, and more propelled the position to new heights in 2019. Fantasy players will no longer be overcome with a sense of […]

Updated Running Back PPR Draft Rankings and Analysis

Hitting on the right RB can win you a league. Christian McCaffrey was a monster in 2019, rewarding fantasy players who took him over Alvin Kamara, Ezekiel Elliot, and in some instances even Saquon Barkley. Sorting out this year’s RB landscape could be the difference between winning it all and missing the playoffs. This year, […]

Updated Fantasy Football Dynasty Rankings: Post-NFL Draft

Welcome back RotoBallers! Below you will find our staff's updated 2020 fantasy football dynasty rankings (top 400) including RBs, WRs, QBs, TEs and NFL Rookies. These dynasty rankings are being released after the 2020 NFL Draft - factoring in trades, off-season moves and rookie situations - but things will of course change as we get closer to the […]

Andrew Lalama's Bold Predictions for 2020 Fantasy Football

I love bold predictions articles because I hate chalk. Preseason ADP is never anywhere near accurate when predicting the season, yet many fantasy drafters have trouble differentiating from the consensus. Last year I predicted that Lamar Jackson would break the QB rushing record, Chris Godwin would have a big season, and David Johnson would struggle. […]

Why Zero RB Won't Work In 2020 (and Beyond!)

In the 1970s, you didn't have to go far to find a funky cool cat cutting up the dance floor in a polyester leisure suit while his pet rock named Morton rested comfortably in his pocket. By the 1980s, people had realized things like the pet rock, and leisure suits were lame. Instead, it was […]

Why Zero RB Will Work In 2020

In a world where Christian McCaffrey is coming off a historic year comprised of 287 carries, 142 targets, 19 touchdowns and over 2,300 yards from scrimmage, the Zero RB strategy might seem like a losing recipe. How can you justify shooting for any non-running back at the top of drafts when we’ve seen just how […]

Kalen Ballage Fails Physical, Trade To Jets Voided

Running back Kalen Ballage will not be joining the New York Jets after all, at least not right away. After having been dealt by Miami, Ballage failed his physical due to a hamstring injury, which allows him to return to the Dolphins, who are not likely to hold onto him. Ultimately, Ballage could wind up […]

Late-Round Lottery Tickets: Undervalued Veterans

In the previous article focusing on late-round gems worth uncovering, we looked at rookies and young players with expanding roles for 2020. This time, we'll pivot to the veterans who are being overlooked or undervalued for various reasons. I refer to these players as lotto tickets. The beauty of taking such players late in the […]

Mike Gesicki (TE, MIA) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~108 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~126 ANALYSIS: 2018 pick Mike Gesicki improved during his sophomore season in 2019. The Penn State product was second on the team in receptions, targets, yards, and touchdowns, all behind DeVante Parker. No joke, considering the level Parker showcased once for all. He played 16 games in 2019, […]

Preston Williams (WR, MIA) - Wide Receiver Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~114 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~136 ANALYSIS: Williams had a memorable rookie campaign, racking up 428 yards and three touchdowns across eight games in 2019. He would catch 32-of-60 targets before tearing his ACL last November, standing as the 45th WR in both PPR and half-PPR leagues when it came to PPG. That amounted […]

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Wide Receiver Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~120 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~143 ANALYSIS: Despite missing a game in 2019, Anthony Miller was still on the field for 64.2% of the Bears offensive snaps and finished with the second-most targets among wide receivers in Chicago's offense. Although he did not make much of these in terms of scoring, only having […]

Jason Katz's Bold Predictions - 2020 Fantasy Football

In my group of friends, I am known for making outlandish claims that, most of the time, even I don't believe. It antagonizes them because they know I'm just complaining about how Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill is going to finish with zero receptions because it's 10 minutes into the first quarter and he hasn't caught a […]

Boom or Bust Tight End Predictions: Gronk, Fant, and Herndon

For the last few seasons, tight end position was essentially a barren wasteland - there were a couple of elite options in the top tier, but beyond that was slim pickings for fantasy players. This is no longer the case, as tight end is as deep as it's ever been. There are elite options at […]
