In this weekly article, Bjorn Yang-Vaernet uses the Advanced Stat Explorer and other RotoViz tools to dive deep into wide receiver usage trends. Usage is key for making waiver wire adds, start/sit decisions, and finding the next blow-up WR in DFS. This week was the first real huge week for wide receivers. Four players scored more than 30 PPR fantasy points: Tyreek Hill – 47.6…...

Blair Andrews questions the perceived values of the Cleveland Browns running backs, offers some hope for Michael Carter drafters, and wonders what the New England Patriots are up to. Our goal with the Zero RB Watch List is to help you locate RB breakouts and waiver adds before they happen, but this column isn’t just for Zero RB owners. We’re just as focused on the…...

Last week, we highlighted David Montgomery as a potential buy low based on the advanced metrics. Unfortunately, he suffered a knee injury on Sunday. After 23 carries for 106 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, Montgomery ranked fifth with 22.6 fantasy points heading into Monday night. Early reports indicate Montgomery avoided a torn ACL, but he’ll still receive further testing. The buy-low window is probably…...

Shawn Siegele examines the encouraging numbers for Ezekiel Elliott, the frightening trend for Alvin Kamara, and the next wave of Zero RB stars-in-the-making. This was a big week for the preseason Zero RB Candidates List, as options like James Conner, Kenneth Gainwell, and Alex Collins all found the end zone. Conner still looks like a shadow of his 2018 self, but Gainwell and Collins are…...

The fireworks in Week 4 almost made up for the devastating injuries in Week 3. The Chiefs remembered Tyreek Hill was on their team, D.J. Moore made not one but two trips to the end zone, and Saquon Barkley looked like the player we were excited to draft second overall in 2020. Several other developments that might be just as important perhaps went unnoticed, however…....

All I can say is that Week 4 was a wonderful week for tight ends. Just incredible. Even without Rob Gronkowski playing, and George Kittle continuing to do nothing, TEs were all over the scoresheet last week. Thirteen TEs scored at least 10.0 PPR points in Week 4. Fourteen found the end zone, with three players liking it so much they did it twice. One…...

Shawn Siegele breaks down the biggest stories from Week 4, including epic performances from Tyreek Hill, D.J. Moore, Terry McLaurin, and Deebo Samuel. The week of the Multi-TD Wide Receiver was my favorite in years, and not surprisingly it was a good one for our preferred RotoViz approach. A few of the highlights: Tyreek Hill went off for 11-186-3, giving him his second game with…...

Conor O’Driscoll uses the RotoViz suite of tools to identify opportunities to buy low on players likely to post strong fantasy performances, and to help you see red flags before your opponents notice.
