Week 2 Dynasty Matchup Analysis

You probably have found enough articles that explain what to watch for each week. For the dynasty community however, we look at each week a little differently. Breaking down each matchup with a dynasty focus will allow you to buy or sell players early. The key to winning long term in dynasty formats is being […]

Dynasty League Rookie Round Up - Week 1

Each week, I'll take a quick look at the top rookies in dynasty fantasy football leagues. I'll review their recent performance (PPR scoring) and offer some thoughts about their upcoming games as well as their long term dynasty value. As the season progresses, the format might change a bit, but for Week 1, I'll review […]

Injury Impact - David Johnson Out 8-12 Weeks

So you got the first pick in your league. Awesome. You considered Le'veon Bell, but his injury history scared you off a bit. Same with Odell Beckham Jr. Antonio Brown was appealing, but a wide receiver first? Hmmm. Heck maybe you even considered Ezekiel Elliot, if you drafted before the news of his suspension. But […]

Buy Low, Sell High Candidates For Week 2

It is time for fantasy football owners to channel their inner Gordon Gecko by buying low and selling high! The opening week of the NFL season was filled with breakout performances by rookie running backs (Dalvin Cook, Kareem Hunt, Leonard Fourcette) and sluggish starts for veteran quarterbacks (Tom Brady, Eli Manning, Andy Dalton). Now is […]

Fantasy Football Risers & Fallers - Week 1

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

#TrendingNow - Dynasty Risers and Fallers

There’s nothing like a great start to the fantasy football season. In one of my leagues, we always play the game “you know football is back when” and I want to kick this article off with a good one. You know football is back when you have to plug your phone in multiple times on […]

Week 2 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

Don't overreact. Don't overreact. Fantasy owners need to repeat this many times before making lineup decisions after one week of regular season football. The same goes for ranking the players and trying to judge relative value. This week, I'll resist temptation to put Kareem Hunt as overall RB1, steer clear of Carson Palmer, and try […]

Week 2 Do Not Drop List - Don't Panic Yet

Every NFL season, the early part of the schedule sees players dropped in fantasy leagues that wind up having hugely productive fantasy seasons for a team that didn’t draft them. It’s a phenomenon that is especially important to pay attention to early, as your impatient league mates might cut players that you want on your […]

Week 1 Rankings Analysis - Pierre Camus vs. Industry Consensus

If you've spent the last 24 hours crying your eyes out because you passed on Kareem Hunt, benched Mike Gillislee, or paid up for Gronk, you're not alone my friend. The obvious almost never happens in fantasy football, which of course is what makes it so exciting (and frustrating). I will admit I own no […]

Under-the-Radar Lineup Booms and Busts (Week 1)

Passing On Passers - A Case For Drafting Your QB1 Late

You hear it every year: wait, wait, wait, and wait some more on quarterback. It's arguably the most common fantasy strategy out there these days. The premise is simple; waiting on your QB1 allows you to soak up all of the stronger running backs and wide receivers, ending up with a late round passer who […]

Fooled me Once, Not Again - Sophomore Wide Receivers Set to Bust, Again

There were four wide receivers chosen in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft. Those receivers were: Corey Coleman, Will Fuller, Josh Doctson, and Laquon Treadwell. The next two receivers picked were Sterling Shepard and Michael Thomas. You might notice that one of those lists contains four names that are not very high on […]

Fooled me Once, Not Again - Sophomore Running Backs Set to Bust Again

There were some really strong performances by rookie running backs in 2016. Ezekiel Elliott was a top pick and performed up to--if not better than--expectations. Jordan Howard came out of nowhere to establish himself as a fantasy stud, someone who is getting drafted very high this season. There was...you know, actually there wasn't much happening […]

Half-PPR Wide Receiver Rankings Analysis

Heading into 2016, wide receivers were considered the “safest” fantasy option, but that changed in a hurry. Running backs were three of the top five non-QB scorers according to ESPN scoring in 2016. Every team does need to fill in wide receiver positions, and this year there is certainly an amount of depth at the […]

Half-PPR Running Back Rankings Analysis

Playing in half-point per reception leagues are one of the more difficult things to do in fantasy. Owners need to weight which players not only will catch passes, but also have touchdown upside as well. Running backs that catch more passes should certainly have increased value over backs that are strictly running the football on […]

2017 Rankings Analysis - Quarterback

That said, […]
