Shawn Siegele looks at two of the biggest mistakes you can make when taking over a dynasty orphan.

Colm Kelly and I have had a lot of fun taking over a dynasty team in the RV TriFlex format over at the FFPC. The Dynasty Re-Animators series on RotoViz Overtime focuses on how to use techniques like Perpetual Reloading to keep the championship window permanently open, or, in the case of an orphan, to open it for the first time.

Each year the Dynasty Workshop focuses on how to build a champion by continuously increasing the overall value of your team’s assets. While RotoViz tends to be known for its industry-changing best-ball analysis and NFL Draft research, perhaps the easiest way to make money in fantasy football is to use our trade-based dynasty rankings and follow our team-building precepts. We usually focus on how to build a juggernaut, but sometimes these key elements are most easily communicated by looking at what not to do.
