Fantasy Outlook in a Sentence: NFC Conference

I have been looking at data from the 2019 season since the Super Bowl finished. I have been looking at projections for the 2020 season for the past few weeks.

RB Handcuffs to Target: NFC Edition

Imagine the feeling of using your early start-up draft pick on a bell-cow running back. He is a lock to get a majority of your team’s carries. He is going to be a major factor in the receiving game. Heck, he may just mess around and lead the league in rushing touchdowns because he is […]

Detroit Lions 2020 Fantasy Outlook

The Detroit Lions are the definition of mediocre in the NFL. Look no further than a string of average records in each of the past eight seasons (sans 2014). The Lions finished at the bottom of the NFC North in 2019, going 3-12. It’s no surprise that coach Matt Patricia has his job on the […]

Sam Darnold Throwing With Saquon Barkley

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was seen on social media throwing passes to New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley. Players have had to get creative this offseason with no in-person organized team activities or minicamps thanks to the coronavirus, so it's not a surprise to see Darnold throwing with a player from another […]

Daniel Jones Draws Mixed Reviews from Joe Judge

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones drew mixed results from head coach Joe Judge in a phone call with NFL Media Reporter Kim Jones.

Later-Round WRs with Upside and Safer WRs to Avoid

If you've read my recent articles or watched the RotoBaller Youtube channel, you already know my new draft strategy for 2020. My plan is to get a safe base in the early rounds and then strictly target players that have upside. The reason is twofold: if those upside fliers don’t work out, I can drop […]

Born to Run: Why You Should Go RB/RB in Rounds 1 and 2

The draft strategies we implement in our fantasy drafts can change from season to season. One year it will be advantageous to load up with wide receivers early in the draft and the following it’s best to draft heavy at running back. This is because the player pool is always changing. We always have a handful […]

Early Summer ADP Risers at Tight End

Ah, our old friend, ADP. Average Draft Position indicates the mean position where a player is drafted over more than one fantasy football draft. You can consider it as the price you have to pay to draft and get a player in your team. A high ADP (that is, actually, a low-numbered ADP) means that a […]

How to Approach Rookies in a Dynasty Startup

In many ways, rookies in dynasty leagues are like icing. Too much can doom you and too little can shorten your window to win. But, just the right amount, combined with the other right ingredients, and you’ll have a delicious cake you can eat. The only difference between re-draft and dynasty is that you’ll be […]

Dynasty Market Watch: NFC East

As the calendar turns to summer, NFL training camps are right around the corner. With that, preparations for upcoming fantasy leagues ramp up. While a lot of owners are getting excited for 2020 re-draft leagues to get going, dynasty formats are what are on the main stage at the moment. We are in a difficult […]

Sterling Shepard's Health Should Be A Concern

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard's multiple concussions in 2019 is a cause of major concern for the organization. The 27-year-old was relegated to just 10 games last season after sustaining two head injuries throughout the year, which ultimately caused the former Sooner to log the worst campaign of his career. Shepard finished last […]

Darius Slayton Tabbed To Break Out In 2020

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton was recently named to CBS Sports' "Breakout Team."

Navigating the Dalvin Cook Holdout

On June 9, 2020, Adam Schefter reported that Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook plans to holdout from training camp unless he receives a "reasonable" deal. Cook is a young, ascending running back in this league and while he's very important to the success of the Vikings, he doesn't have much leverage. Player holdouts are going […]

Evan Engram Given Generous Fantasy Ranking

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram is anticipated to end 2020 as the sixth-best fantasy option at the position, according to ESPN. While the 25-year-old does have the potential to make some noise on the fantasy end, he will need to remain healthy throughout the year, something that has been an issue over the […]

Daniel Jones Expected To Produce In 2020

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones could be in store for a potential breakout, at least according to some at ESPN, due to his likely natural progression relating to his accuracy in addition to having some solid options on the offensive end. The sophomore signal-caller appeared in 13 games in 2019 after taking over for […]

Experts Predict Solid Year For Saquon Barkley

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley has arguably a higher outlook heading into 2020 than he has had at any point throughout his tenure in the league thus far.

Why Joe Burrow Will Be a Top-10 Fantasy Quarterback

The prevailing strategy that has taken over fantasy football is to wait on quarterback.

This strategy allows you to construct a roster filled with depth at wide receiver and running back. If you’re […]

The Fantasy Fallacy of Running Back Committees

Some of the scariest words a fantasy owner can hear is that their running back is now part of a committee (RBBC). However, people rarely look beyond this - failing to examine what this truly means, and how it impacts a player’s value. In simple terms, an RBBC is defined as having multiple running backs […]
