Dave Caban shares his baseline 2024 projection for the Detroit Lions while also considering the impacts of increases/decreases to market shares and team play volume. Every offseason, I undertake the process of creating projections for every team. In previous years, this involved developing a projection that I believed would represent the average performance of all relevant players if a given season were played out thousands…...

Blair Andrews pens Part 3 in a series helping you build super teams through a better understanding of wide receiver breakouts. Since the early days at RotoViz we’ve spilled plenty of words explaining why you wanted to take a fast and furious approach to WR drafting. But we’ve spent even more time helping you find the right WRs. Of course, the NFL continues to evolve and…...

Shawn Siegele explores five key components he uses to build out the Zero RB draft board, and then breaks down 61 players using those criteria. As we move toward the 2024 Zero RB Candidates Countdown, I’ve been working on a series of articles that help place RB outcomes in the context of upside scenarios and downside risks. We Won’t Get Another Kyren Williams, But This…...

Shawn Siegele investigates Kyren Williams’ league-crushing campaign to find out what it can tell us about fantasy running back drafting. Can two dark horse candidates follow in his footsteps? Every so often we get a lightning-strike player who completely turns the fantasy season on its head. In 2023 that was Kyren Williams. Searching for players like Williams can present problems. We don’t expect to get…...

Expected points (EP) correlate better to future fantasy success than fantasy points over expected (FPOE). FPOE is tied to big plays and TDs meaning it is also tied to missed tackles and blown assignments; in turn, it is generally more volatile. Some rightly source a degree of potential upcoming regression by comparing FPOE to EP; a massive disparity between them may signal that someone has…...

Shawn Siegele explains why the scariest RB Dead Zone profile is priced above the dead zone and threatens to torpedo your roster like Dalvin Cook in 2022 or Austin Ekeler in 2023. My most notorious player-related article came right at the beginning. In June 2013 I argued that Adrian Peterson was not worth a top-five pick. This was six months after he came within 9 yards…...

After the Dolphins’ RBs broke fantasy football in 2023, Shawn Siegele profiles the running game poised to deliver similar results in 2024. De’Von Achane and Raheem Mostert both found their way onto last year’s Zero RB Candidates Countdown. The two Miami stars were so good that you had great success drafting them individually . . . or even together. And despite a dramatic shift in Achane’s…...
