It’s Never Too Early to Start Streaming: D/ST Streaming, Week 1

Ross Durham September 10, 2023

It’s never too early to start streaming. Last year in this series I attempted to show why streaming defenses in fantasy football is the superior strategy. First, it requires almost no draft capital to take a D/ST outside the top 12 by ADP with a good Week 1 matchup. Second, it’s the highest-scoring method. As I pointed out last year, starting the Cowboys (D/ST1 overall…...

David Phillippi looks at the Zero RB Countdown through a dynasty lens and provides a glimpse into how you can use this redraft resource to evaluate your dynasty squads. I began building my modest but much-loved dynasty “portfolio” with two start-ups in 2015, and was nearing the double-digit league mark in 2018 when I launched a home SF/TE premium best ball league that I still…...

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

Mat Irby September 5, 2023

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…...

Evaluating Offensive Line Continuity Against Market Perception Entering the 2023 Season

Thomas Emerick September 3, 2023

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

Mat Irby September 1, 2023

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.

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…....

2 Mispriced Early-Round Players Who Could be League Winners in 2023

Meng Song August 31, 2023

Meng Song discusses a couple of mispriced early-round players who could be league-winners in 2023. There’s plenty of information out there regarding late-round ADP values and mid-round sleepers, like Mat Irby’s three middle-round running backs who could be stars. Players who outperform their ADPs certainly add value to a fantasy roster, but it’s rare to hit on true league-winners in the middle or late rounds…...
