Albert Wilson Thinks He'll Be Ready For Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (hip), who missed half of last season with a serious hip injury, said that "there's no reason why I shouldn't be out there Week 1." He hasn't been able to practice since his injury on Oct. 21 but said he's "been outstanding with everything they've asked me to do" […]

Anatomy of a Draft - RotoBaller Expert Mock Recap

With the NFL Draft behind us and rookie drafts underway, the writers at RotoBaller felt the time was right to put together our first mock draft of the season. Yes, it may be quite early, but you can never be too prepared when it comes to the world of fantasy football. With tidbits of player […]

DeVante Parker The Best Player In Camp

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker has been the best player in camp the last five weeks. He hauled in two more touchdowns in practice on Wednesday and would be a Pro Bowler if he played like this in the regular season. That's been precisely the problem with the disappointing Parker to this point in […]

Brice Butler, Ricardo Louis Injured

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brice Butler (leg) left practice with what appeared to be a leg injury on Tuesday. The Dolphins also previously lost receiver Ricardo Louis (knee) for the season due to a knee injury this offseason. Butler has been competing with undrafted rookies Preston Williams and Trenton Irwin, Isaiah Ford and Reece Horn […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Has Outplayed Josh Rosen

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been better than Josh Rosen so far in offseason workouts. Fitzpatrick continues to take the first snaps with the first-team offense in team drills. Fitz was far from perfect in practice on Tuesday, but he didn't make any foolish throws that were intercepted, which couldn't be said for Rosen. […]

Dynasty Price Check - Mike Gesicki

Last year, the Miami Dolphins spent a second-round pick on Penn State tight end Mike Gesicki. Tight end had long been a rough position for the Dolphins, as the team hasn't had a player at the position hit the 500-yard mark since Charles Clay in 2014, but the move to pick Gesicki seemed like a […]

Damien Williams Is a Must-Draft... and Must-Sell

“You know what? Damien Williams is our starter,” said Chiefs RB coach Eric Bieniemy shortly before fantasy football Twitter burned down. My initial reaction to this: "No kidding, what are your other options?" Regardless, Damien Williams, it's now your turn. I don't just mean it's his chance to earn a starting gig on an NFL […]

Late-Round Dynasty Stashes and Deep Sleepers

One of the most fun parts of being involved in dynasty formats is watching your team evolve year after year. A part of that process is being aware of the landing spots of talented undrafted free agents. Not all the prospects are highly sought after by NFL teams, yet there is still value that tends […]

Dynasty Stock Watch - Tight Ends

The New York Stock Exchange is not the only place where people care a lot about whose stock is skyrocketing and whose is plummeting. The fantasy values of many tight ends have gone up and gone down during this interesting offseason. While nobody’s fantasy stock plunged more than Rob Gronkowski’s after he retired following winning […]

Mark Walton Could Be No. 3 Back

Miami Dolphins running back Mark Walton has impressed as a receiver during organized team activities and has a real chance to beat out seventh-round pick Myles Gaskin for the No. 3 running back spot behind Kenyan Drake and Kalen Ballage. A fourth-round pick of the Bengals last year, Walton had 14 carries for 34 yards […]

Preston Williams Turning Heads

Miami Dolphins undrafted wide receiver Preston Williams is standing out and opening eyes in organized team activities. The 6-foot-4, 210-pounder has speed, good body control and great footwork. Williams was undrafted after an off-field incident with a woman. He had 1,345 receiving yards last year and 14 touchdowns and he's constantly winning in practice and […]

Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)

It used to be that we ignored the tight end position until the middle rounds of a draft. Now, it's not uncommon to see a name like Kelce in the first round and not bat an eyelash, while Ertz and Kittle are guaranteed to be taken within the top 30 picks. In best-ball leagues, you […]

Late-Round Rookie RBs to Target in Dynasty Drafts

The 2019 NFL Draft is over, and the preparation for your fantasy football league’s upcoming season should be starting now, not in late August. In standard year-to-year fantasy leagues or keeper leagues where you can only hold onto a minimal amount of players, you are not going to find many late-round rookie running backs on […]

Start of a Dynasty - Expert Mock Draft Review

I’ll be honest, playing re-draft leagues for years can give an avid fantasy footballer tunnel-vision. You tend to look for the immediate impact of a player. In Dynasty leagues, you have to have a different mindset (except for Frank Gore who’ll play for another 10 years with at least 200 touches each time). Just after […]

DeVante Parker Stands Out In Red Zone

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker was excellent in red-zone drills at organized team activities this week, catching multiple passes. The new coaching staff and receivers coach Karl Dorrell are trying to use positive reinforcement with Parker, who has responded well to the approach. The 26-year-old is being given a second chance under the new […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Outplaying Josh Rosen?

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been better than quarterback Josh Rosen at organized team activities this week, according to a player that didn't want to speak publicly. However, Rosen has played well and Fitzpatrick threw two interceptions at practice on Tuesday. Rosen is doing his best work in the middle of the field and […]

Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)

Quarterback has to be approached differently in best-ball as opposed to re-draft leagues. Whereas in most competitive leagues, you can get away with drafting one quarterback and streaming throughout the year if necessary, you don't have that luxury in a draft-only format. Bye weeks, injuries, and flat-out bad play must be accounted for during the […]

The 26-year-old has 34 receptions for 471 yards and four touchdowns in 42 games over his three seasons with […]

Of the first 24 players overall, half of them are RBs. With the number of teams in the NFL to adopt the committee […]

Rookie Spotlight - Diontae Johnson

One of the most perplexing selections of the 2019 NFL Draft was Pittsburgh Steelers' third-round wide receiver, Diontae Johnson. The Steelers took Johnson in the third round ahead of dozens of WRs which the vast majority of scouts and analysts had ranked above him. Wherever I looked, I saw a sixth or seventh round grade […]

Mark Walton Trying Out For Dolphins

Free-agent running back Mark Walton is trying out with the Miami Dolphins during their rookie minicamp. The four-round pick of the Bengals in 2018 was cut this offseason due to off-field issues. The 22-year-old had 14 carries for 34 yards (2.4 average) and no touchdowns in his rookie season. He'd be nothing more than depth […]
