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…...
Never Chase Your Zero RB Winners, Right? Even for a Young, Supercharged Version of Aaron Jones?
Shawn Siegele
August 11, 2025
What would you pay for a young, supercharged version of Aaron Jones, especially if he labored for one of the NFL’s best offenses? For years, I’ve forced myself to avoid Zero RB hits during their follow-up seasons. After all, taking the next step and becoming a 350-point sensation requires a mix of attributes that is incredibly difficult to deliver. Of course, it’s always tempting to…...
Good Players Are Still Good: The Most Undervalued Wide Receiver Metric
Blair Andrews
August 11, 2025
If you think you fully understand the importance of fantasy efficiency, think again. Fantasy football doesn’t have to be difficult. We love digging into all the advanced metrics, refining our models, and finding tiny edges using new data sources. But sometimes the old standbys still give you the best bang for your buck. We’ve advocated using win rates to evaluate player seasons for several years…...

Kevin Szafraniec
August 10, 2025
Kevin Szafraniec discusses why the unique format of FastDraft’s Flex 4 contest has quickly become one of his favorite ways to play best ball. The tournament’s innovative structure leads to unique strategies to exploit the contest’s early edges.

When Rules of Thumb Fail: Winning the Next War
Shawn Siegele
August 9, 2025
Shawn Siegele argues that occasionally simple rules of thumb end up not being so simple. Understanding the trajectory for players as they move through the NFL can be very important. That’s one of the reasons I so frequently reference Blair’s groundbreaking WR age series. It’s also helpful to understand the role that draft slot plays in establishing a baseline for a player’s likely usage. While…...

Shawn Siegele provides an early look at inexpensive RB tactics for fantasy football and teases the mid-August Zero RB Candidates Countdown. I always receive quite a bit of correspondence around the Zero RB Candidates Countdown in mid-August as subscribers prepare for their most important drafts. This article is both an early camp state-of-the-position and a lookahead to the Countdown itself. Last year we hit on Chase…...

Shawn Siegele
July 25, 2025
A year ago, Shawn Siegele penned a 6,000-word deep dive into the Seattle Seahawks’ passing game and what history told us about the upside of Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the risks to D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. This season’s deep dive features a squad even closer to his heart . . . and even more important for fantasy purposes. When looking at advance rates from 2024,…...

J.K. Dobbins Provides a Rare Same-Team Arbitrage Opportunity, But Is It Worth Paying More for the Exciting Rookie Instead?
Corbin Young
June 18, 2025
Corbin Young breaks down J.K. Dobbins’ surprising move to Denver and reveals why this late-round veteran might be the smartest backfield investment in Sean Payton’s offense. J.K. Dobbins signed a one-year contract with the Broncos for just under $3 million. Dobbins was one of the most notable running back free agents that had not signed with a team, especially since he reached career highs in…...
This Contrarian Strategy Helped Me Finish No. 2 Overall in the 2024 Scott Fish Bowl . . . and It’s Even More Potent in 2025
Blair Andrews
June 12, 2025
Despite many recent successes, as a site we’re generally quite modest. This has mainly to do with the personalities of the central players. I’m not a fantasy analyst who likes to toot my own horn, as it were. That’s why, unless you were paying close attention, you might not know that I finished second overall in the Scott Fish Bowl last season (SFB14), out of…...
The Next Kyren Williams Is Already on the Rams’ Roster: Is This Day-3 After-Contact Monster Your Ultimate Late-Round Lottery Ticket?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 11, 2025
Kyren Williams flew under the radar as a rookie after being selected on Day 3 of the draft and missing half of the year due to injury. Heading into his second season, there was a steady drumbeat of positive reports surrounding Williams during training camp before he emerged in Week 1 as the Rams’ workhorse and finished as a top-10 fantasy running back that year…....
The Ultimate Zero-QB Target: Could Jaxson Dart’s First-Round Pedigree and Vertical Passing Prowess Make Him the Key to Superflex Glory?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 10, 2025
After putting up some impressive statistics as the starting quarterback at Ole Miss over the past three years, Jaxson Dart’s climb up draft boards this offseason resulted in him being the second QB selected in this year’s draft. The Giants did not want to take a chance of missing out on him, trading back into the first round to guarantee that they got their guy…....
The Tomlinson Effect: Is Ashton Jeanty the Generational Running Back Prospect That Forces Us to Abandon Zero RB?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 9, 2025
Ever since exploding onto the scene for Boise State in 2023, Ashton Jeanty has been destined to be selected in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft. Not only was he able to accomplish this feat, but he also became the highest running back selected since Saquon Barkley went No. 2 overall in 2018. Heading to a Raiders offense that lacks true difference makers…...
Sean McVay’s Excitement Over Terrance Ferguson Should Get Fantasy Managers Hyped Up as Well
Kevin Szafraniec
June 6, 2025
Terrance Ferguson was one of the biggest winners of the pre-draft process after putting up some impressive numbers at the NFL combine. But Ferguson is more than a workout warrior, posting solid production over the entirety of his college career at Oregon. After the Rams drafted Ferguson with the 46th pick in this year’s draft, head coach Sean McVay had some flattering things to say…...
Is Jonathan Taylor or the Colts’ QB Situation a Bigger Detriment to D.J. Giddens’ Fantasy Value?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 5, 2025
D.J. Giddens was not a sought-after recruit coming out of high school, but he was able to emerge as one of the most electric running backs in college football over his final two seasons at Kansas State. Giddens was able to back up his performance on the field with an impressive showing at the combine, yet still lasted until the fifth round of the NFL…...
Can Kyle Williams Break New England’s Draft Curse and Become a Rare WR Hit for the Patriots?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 4, 2025
The Patriots have one of the worst track records of drafting wide receivers since the turn of the century. Sadly, 2024 did not yield much better results, as I detailed in an offseason preview of the team: The Patriots’ track record of evaluating wide receiver talent over the past 25 years is one of the worst in the league. Outside of transitioning Julian Edelman from…...
How Long Will It Take Tetairoa McMillan to Become a Target Hog in the Carolina Passing Game?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 3, 2025
In what was projected as a weak wide receiver class for quite some time, Tetairoa McMillan maintained his place as an elite prospect from wire to wire. McMillan’s combination of size and savvy led to him producing out of the gate at Arizona, putting up big numbers in each of his three seasons in Tucson. While not a flawless prospect, there was still enough to…...
Can Devin Neal Overcome the Odds and Produce for Fantasy Managers in His Rookie Season?
Kevin Szafraniec
June 2, 2025
Devin Neal was the most productive running back in the history of the Kansas Jayhawks’ football program. However, suspect athleticism in a loaded rookie class pushed him into the late rounds of the NFL Draft. His landing spot on a New Orleans offense that is projected to be one of the worst in the league also leaves something to be desired. Additionally, he finds himself…...
Could Cam Ward Realistically Lead the NFL in Passing Attempts in 2025 on a Rebuilding Titans Offense?
Kevin Szafraniec
May 29, 2025
Bypassing the 2024 NFL Draft to transfer to the University of Miami paid off huge for Cam Ward, as he went from being a potential Day 2 selection last season to the top overall pick one year later. Ward’s arm talent is evident. At times, he almost makes things look too easy, displaying a calm demeanor in the pocket while throwing from a multitude of…...
