RotoViz Ranks Versus FFPC ADP: 2 Wide Receivers Who Are Overpriced in FFPC Drafts and 2 to Buy Instead

August 30, 2022

When sharp rankers, analysts, and fantasy players have players higher or lower in the RotoViz ranks, we should take notice. Last time, we looked at running backs that sat higher or lower on the RotoViz ranks versus FFPC ADP. We shouldn’t follow blindly, but it leads us to challenge or validate our thoughts and research. If anything, it’s a starting point to evaluate whether these players could be ones to avoid or potential values. In this article, we’ll move to wide receivers and compare the RotoViz ranks to assess the pros and cons.

Note that we’re looking at consensus rankings for this exercise. Individual rankers may have players higher or lower than consensus, so it’s worth exploring the RotoViz rankings for yourself.

RotoViz Ranks – Two Receiver Fades

Michael Pittman Jr.

After a breakout in Year 2, Michael Pittman ranked as WR27 in PPR/G with a decent 12.9 EP/G (No. 23). Pittman ranked highly in WOPR (No. 15) with a 26% target share (No. 12) and 33% air yards share (No. 20).

Last season, Pittman garnered WR2 and borderline WR1 opportunities in some contests with a target share north of 30% in six games. Meanwhile, he has an FFPC ADP of a WR1. Among receivers with 200 routes, Pittman ranked 24th with 2.14 yards per route run, tied with Chris Godwin.

How does Carson Wentz compare to the aging Matt Ryan? Among quarterbacks with 200 pass attempts, Wentz ranked 13th with 6.5 adjusted yards per attempt. Ryan ranked 18th with 5.9 AY/A. If we go back to 2019 to 2021, Wentz and Ryan have peak seasons with an identical 6.5 AY/A.

Is Keenan Allen’s Herbert Reunion the Most Overlooked Value Hack of 2025? 4 Wide Receiver Risers (Including 2 Rookies) Create Arbitrage Opportunities

Unsurprisingly, we covered mostly Year 1 or Year 2 players, with a veteran joining a team late into the…...

Why Woody Marks Could Be This Year’s Kyren Williams, and 5 Other Day 3 Running Backs Moving Quickly Up Draft Boards

Corbin Young August 14, 2025

We’ve seen Day 3 running backs move up the draft boards, and some with good reason. Day 3 running backs have been relatively helpful over the past few seasons, especially in their first two seasons. We saw Bucky Irving, Chase Brown, and Tyrone Tracy Jr. hit last season, with Isiah Pacheco, Chuba Hubbard, and Kyren Williams being other notables (though Hubbard broke out in Year…...
