Editorial note: Originally published on February 20, 2019. As of May 9, 2019, Doug Baldwin is no longer a member of the Seattle Seahawks after being cut by the team. All indications are that his injuries will force him to retire. In case you weren’t aware, Tyler Lockett is the WR1 in Seattle. This isn’t something new, the torch was actually passed in 2018. I…...

Continuing our look back at the 2018 rookie crop, our attention turns now to Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert. Despite a Christian name that is not exactly a popular word around Philly, Goedert was able to do enough in his first season to convince Eagles fans that Dallas doing well isn’t always a bad thing…....

We come to Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki in our latest look back on the 2018 rookie crop. Gesicki entered his debut season with high hopes and expectations, even taking into account the relative difficulty rookie TEs have in becoming productive immediately. It is probably fair to say that he came nowhere close to meeting these standards. Although to be truthful, the blame for…...

Following a strong junior season, Dillon Mitchell has decided to forgo his final year of eligibility at Oregon and enter the NFL Draft. The 6-foot-1-inch, 189-pound wide receiver led the Pac-12 in yards receiving (1,184) in 2018 serving as the clear number one option for quarterback Justin Herbert. Does Mitchell profile as a viable asset in dynasty leagues? THE EARLY YEARS A four-star prospect from Memphis,…...

What the 2018 class of rookie wide receivers lacked in top-end talent, it made up for in depth, with 11 different wide receivers scoring at least 96 fantasy points in their maiden year. Next up in our look at the historical comparables for the class is Bills WR Robert Foster. …...

As a secondary option in a run-oriented offense at Georgia for the last two seasons, Mecole Hardman has largely stayed out of the national spotlight. And while his production profile isn’t spectacular there are reasons to like his chances of finding success at the next level. At 5 feet 11 inches, 183 pounds, can Hardman secure a role in the NFL that leads to fantasy…...

With the 2018 NFL season now seeming a long way in the past, we are continuing our look back at the performances of some of the players for whom 2018 was their first taste of NFL action. Here, we focus our attention on one of the two tight ends drafted by the Baltimore Ravens last spring — namely, Mark Andrews. We’ll take a look back at the…...

Correctly valuing players in dynasty fantasy football is difficult even when we know all relevant variables (such as team, coordinator, and role). It’s an even more difficult task when a player doesn’t have a team, is suspended for an indefinite amount of time, and his backup played arguably as well after his suspension. Until yesterday, this was Kareem Hunt’s fantasy equation. Of course, now we know that he’s…...

A.J. Brown was one of the top-10 returning wide receivers in college football by Dominator Rating, which underscores how important he was to Ole Miss’s offense. At 6 feet 1 inch and 230 pounds, Brown looks like he could play as a Z-receiver in the NFL…....

For the last several years, RotoViz has provided a Draft Age Database with the intention of saving our readers time and energy when moving through their own individual evaluation process…....

Continuing our look back at the 2018 rookie class, the white-hot light of our attention falls on Eagles running back Josh Adams. A long shot to even make the roster back in September, Adams ended up leading the Eagles in rushing yards. But he was far from a superstar in 2018. We’ll take a look back at the positives, and negatives, of Adams first year in…...

Kelvin Harmon opted to skip the Gator Bowl in order to prepare for the 2019 NFL Draft. Considering that Harmon has been a projected as a first-round draft pick for much of the 2018 season, it should come as no surprise that he declared early…....
