Shawn Siegele
February 3, 2021
Shawn Siegele projects the first round of 2021 rookie drafts and explains why the Rookie Guide will help you dominate your league’s festivities.

If you want rankings and rookie tiers, the guide offers three sets: 1-QB Classic, TE Premium, and Superflex with TE Premium. Prefer a three-round mock? We…...

Zachary Krueger
February 1, 2021
With FFPC best ball drafts well under way, Zachary Krueger takes a look at the FFPC Exposures and ADP tool to identify a few players who could be getting drafted at bargain prices and those we should avoid until later.

Should the Dolphins Move on from Tua? Just How Scared Should Fantasy Owners Be?
Neil Dutton
February 1, 2021
For a long time, Tua Tagovailoa was seen as the belle of the 2020 NFL Draft ball. A prize that would make earning the first overall pick in the draft something to aim for, rather than be ashamed of. For much of the early 2019 campaign, the Miami Dolphins seemed well placed to take the honors in the #TankForTua sweepstakes. But his hip injury, and…...

Blair Andrews

Zachary Krueger
January 27, 2021

Early FFPC Best Ball Drafts: Round 1 Looks a Lot Different in 2021
Shawn Siegele
January 26, 2021
FFPC Best Ball drafts are live! Shawn Siegele talks strategy and discusses three key developments from the 2021 shakeup in first-round ADP. A late Nyheim Hines stat revision knocked our FFPC Main Event team from 29th to 31st and cost us a chunk of cash, but Blair Andrews and I are already reinvesting some of our profits on 2021 leagues. We’ll keep you updated on…...

Neil Dutton

How Old Is Too Old for an NFL RB? The RotoViz Screener Provides Age-Based Targets and Fades
Amr Gabr
January 22, 2021
Many owners know, or at least believe, you should sell your running backs once they reach a certain age — around 25, perhaps. I’ve always been wary of such blanket statements, but could this narrative be true? Blair Andrews looked at how RBs age in Running Back Age Curves, Breakout Rates, And Failure Rates – The Wrong Read, No. 35. One of Blair’s key takeaways…...

J.K. Dobbins is a Trendy 2021 RB1 – Here Are Three Reasons You Should Sell Anyway
Sam Wallace
January 18, 2021
A personal goal of mine for the upcoming fantasy offseason and the subsequent season is to do a better job of aggressively attacking values within my tiers. The tier-based ranking approach has become much more popular in recent years. It allows savvy fantasy managers to exploit value during single-season drafts, dynasty startups, and offseason trades as they work within the confines of a larger tier…....
The Quarterback Position Has Changed And This Is How To Exploit It In Fantasy
Dave Caban
January 18, 2021
Dave Caban considers the dramatic increase in rushing production of the top fantasy quarterbacks and explains why this should change your approach to drafting the position — and it’s not as simple as just targeting passers with rushing upside. Quarterback scoring exploded in 2020. The top-12 players at the position averaged 26.2 points per game (PPG). This was the highest average this century and 2.2…...
2 WRs Make a Final Push for the Top Spot in Dynasty: Can They Overcome Justin Jefferson for No. 1?
Shawn Siegele
January 17, 2021
Justin Jefferson set the all-time receiving yardage record for a rookie with 1,400 and scored 63.7 fantasy points over expectation. Is that enough to climb to the top of the wide receiver rankings in dynasty? 2020 was the year of the receiver. Healthy veterans flourished. Davante Adams earned the highest per-game score for a WR. Tyreek Hill averaged just a shade under 22 PPG. Stefon…...

Shawn Siegele
January 15, 2021
Shawn Siegele uses the GPS Matchup Rater to help you take down a DFS field or build a roster for the FFPC Playoff Challenge 2.

January 15, 2021
In the midst of the ups and downs many of us faced over the past year, it seems only fitting that I begin my offseason work by highlighting someone who overcame his own significant challenges.

Justin Jefferson and the Value of Checking All the Boxes: Why We Picked Him and How to Do It Again – The Wrong Read, No. 65
Blair Andrews
January 14, 2021
Justin Jefferson finished his rookie season with 1,400 receiving yards — the most for a rookie WR this century. His 64.2 receiving FPOE trail only Odell Beckham and A.J. Brown. His 274.2 PPR points trail only Beckham and Anquan Boldin. Yet going into the 2020 season, Jefferson was just the ninth player picked in FFPC rookie drafts. Likewise, Brown was the 10th player picked in…...
