Will Zack Moss Get on a Roll With the Cincinnati Bengals?

It’s all changed at the running back spot for the Cincinnati Bengals heading into the 2024 season. The team signed former Indianapolis Colts RB Zack Moss to a two-year, $8m deal. They then announced they were releasing Joe Mixon, although this changed on Day 2 of the “Legal Tampering” period when the team decided to trade him to the Houston Texans instead. Just another normal…...

There’s No Place Like Home: The 2024 Outlooks for 3 Veteran Receivers Who Decided Not to Move

With free agency open, the floodgates broke for several players, including three veteran receivers staying home with their respective teams. Sometimes a veteran receiver might go overlooked as the hype rises for the rookies and sophomores. Unlike running backs, we sometimes have more consistency at the receiver position, especially when a young player establishes themselves and earns targets. Let’s look at the early fantasy impact…...

It’s a Savvy Shot for Pittsburgh, but Does Russell Wilson Have What It Takes to Bring George Pickens’ Career and the Steelers’ Offense to Life?

It’s difficult to recall a player whose public perception has nosedived as precipitously as Russell Wilson’s has in the past two seasons. In November 2020, Wilson was considered the favorite for the NFL MVP award and one of the best QBs in the league. A nine-time Pro Bowler, a two-time participant and a one-time winner of the Super Bowl, at least as stated then, an…...

Misunderstood But Dynamic and Multifaceted, Is D’Andre Swift the Perfect Fit in Chicago?

The Chicago Bears wasted little time in free agency signing the most exciting running back to hit the market. That may sound controversial in a free agent class that includes Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs, Tony Pollard, and Austin Ekeler. But Chicago’s new starting RB, D’Andre Swift, is the youngest of the bunch, and the only one of the group to finish with positive rushing efficiency…....

Will Saquon Barkley Fly High as a Member of the Philadelphia Eagles?

The Philadelphia Eagles broke the habit of a lifetime — well, maybe a few years — and devoted considerable financial resources toward a single running back at the start of free agency. Saquon Barkley, who has spent the first six seasons of his career as a member of NFC East rival New York Giants, has signed for the Eagles on a deal worth up to…...

Should We Expect Jerry Jeudy to Bounce Back in Cleveland, and Who Will Pick Up the Pieces in Denver?

The Denver Broncos have agreed to send Jerry Jeudy to the Cleveland Browns in return for a pair of Day 3 picks in the 2024 draft. After reportedly seeking a second-round pick in return for Jeudy last year, the Broncos are receiving a fifth-round pick (135th overall) and a sixth-round pick (202nd) a year later. With both teams involved heading in opposite directions from an…...

Can the Dolphins’ New Free Agent Signing Help Elevate Tua Tagovailoa to the Next Level?

Jonnu Smith seems firmly entrenched in the journeyman stage of his career. The former Titan, Patriot, and Falcon tight end has landed on his fourth team after signing with the Miami Dolphins after the Falcons released him following the 2023 season. The deal could be worth up to $10m over two years, with the word “could” likely doing a lot of heavy lifting there. This…...

The Houston Texans Might Have the Next Andrew Luck at Quarterback in C.J. Stroud

Sometimes, we are successful not because of the decisions we made, but because of the decisions we did not make. And sometimes, we are successful because of the decisions someone else did not make. It is early days, of course, but right now the Houston Texans are the big winners because the Carolina Panthers chose to draft Bryce Young. This left them free to select,…...

Devin Singletary Flashed Immense Upside in His Rookie Year, And This 2023 Rookie Running Back Is Following In His Footsteps

The Bills drafted Devin Singletary in 2019 to pair with veteran Frank Gore in his age-36 season. Singletary bested Gore in snap share (68% vs. 35%) and rush share (42% vs. 36%). He also edged Gore in rushing yards (775 vs. 599). Singletary saw a healthy rush share and a 12% target share (No. 17), and averaged 12.5 PPR/G (No. 27) as a rookie. The…...

A 2023 Self-Appraisal: Transparency, Accountability, and the Pursuit of Betterment, Part 2 – Weeks 5-8

“Self-examination, the observation of one’s own experience, is the very root of the intelligence.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti. Using self-examination to accept the person you are could be worthwhile for your mental health, but it can’t generally improve your performance at a craft. Using self-examination to become better requires action. And it begins with an honest evaluation of what you have been doing and what results…...

Can We Find the Next Michael Thomas in the 2023 Rookie Class?

Michael Thomas immediately earned target volume as a rookie with the Saints. In Thomas’ rookie season, the Saints had three receivers with over 100 targets, including Thomas (121), Brandin Cooks (117), and Willie Snead (104). As a rookie, Thomas ranked 21st in EP/G and third in FPOE/G with a 19% target share. After Year 1, Thomas posted three consecutive seasons with 145 or more targets…....

Are You Doing Keepers All Wrong in Home Leagues? A Case Study

Advising on home keeper leagues can be challenging since there are various ways to run these leagues. Some allow keepers to be retained without any added cost, some permit players to be kept forever in the round in which they were initially drafted, and others have a depreciation tax year over year. And still, other leagues operate like mini-dynasties with non-snaking drafts in reverse order…...

Don’t Miss Out On 2023’s Crazy Rookie Wide Receiver Value Like You Missed Garrett Wilson

Garrett Wilson massively outperformed in fantasy a year ago, putting up more than 1,100 yards despite historically bad quarterback play. Now Michael Dubner reveals the rookie WR on the same path Wilson blazed a year ago.  With one week of drafting remaining in the FFPC Main Event and FantasyPros contests, and 4% of Best Ball Mania drafts remaining, I’m bringing you an urgent message not…...

Evaluating Offensive Line Continuity Against Market Perception Entering the 2023 Season

We’ve had to white-knuckle through the end of training camp with injuries to skill position players, so it can be easy to take our eyes off the trenches. Though as I lay out in my annual summer series for RotoViz, there is a correlation worth exploring between starting offensive line continuity entering the season and the offensive production that ensues. My most recent piece put…...

Want to Take a Big Swing? 3 Players Who Could Be Home League Home Runs

I grew up in Dallas in the 1980s, and during the time south of Nolan Ryan’s arrival, the Texas Rangers were usually just north of horrid. One of our most noteworthy players back then was Pete Incaviglia. After playing with an independent club in 1985, he signed with the Rangers, and having never played a minor league game, he debuted in The Show in ’86…....

The 2023 Josh Jacobs Isn’t Who You Think: A Deep-League Redraft Plan to Win $1 Million

We’ve arrived at the best week of the fantasy season. Redraft week. And the best mix of entry level ($350), field size, and grand prize ($1 million) comes in the FFPC FantasyPros tournament.
