Could 2021’s Nyheim Hines Come From The Rams Backfield?
Tim Talmadge
July 22, 2021
In 2021, Nyheim Hines had an ADP outside the top 150. His team had just drafted one of the best college running backs in history, and drafters were wary that he might lose the pass-catching role he’d come to enjoy. Furthermore, it looked like he was the third running back on the team’s depth chart, behind the rookie Jonathan Taylor and the incumbent Marlon Mack. But…...

Monty Phan
July 21, 2021
Back in April, before the NFL Draft, Shawn Siegele and I drafted a team together in one of the new RotoViz TriFlex FFPC dynasty leagues that had just launched. After drafting our first running back, Chuba Hubbard, in the 10th round, and our second RB, Tony Pollard, in the 12th, we waited until the 15th round to draft our third RB: Darrell Henderson.

Predicting Future NFL Success for Wide Receivers: The Adjusted Production Index
Travis May
July 20, 2021
This may seem obvious, but predicting the NFL Draft pick by pick is truly impossible. And that’s not what we’re trying to do here. But when it comes to fantasy football, we like to see wide receivers drafted in Rounds 1-3 of the NFL Draft. Those receivers typically produce fantasy points at a much higher rate than those drafted later or not at all. Makes…...
The Broncos Offense Is Loaded: Why You’ll Find League Winners at RB, WR, and TE Despite Poor QB Play
Sam Wallace

In the second of a three-part series, Sam Wallace highlights an emerging offense so loaded it could provide fantasy football league-winners at RB, WR, and TE in 2021. Going against the grain is not an uncommon approach in fantasy football. While many fantasy managers work within the confines of the consensus, many also embark on their own path, looking to uncover unique values, intriguing sleepers,…...
Offensive Line Continuity Shake-Ups Entering NFL Training Camp
Thomas Emerick
July 19, 2021
The offensive line continuity prospects of several NFL teams will enter the kiln come training camp. Fortunately, enough is in place to provide an outlook on 2021 fantasy football impact by tracing from the trenches to offensive production over the years. I’ll concede and even emphasize that OL continuity isn’t a first-order factor. However, you will see that the best and most consistent offenses usually…...

Shawn Siegele breaks down why Jonathan Taylor makes such a good target in 2021 and explains why understanding Taylor helps develop your strategy for the entire first round.

Doesn’t…...
These 2 Advanced Quarterback Metrics Predict Draft Capital and Fantasy Success with Stunning Accuracy
Travis May
July 16, 2021
What makes a quarterback good? And can we truly predict which quarterback prospects will be good once they make the leap from college to the NFL? It seems there is more disagreement on top quarterback prospects than any other position group each year. And yet every year, one (or more) of the top quarterback prospects ends up being a bust. Why is that? And how…...

Sam Wallace
July 10, 2021
In the first of a three-part series, Sam Wallace highlights an undervalued offense that could be the Buffalo Bills of the 2021 season.

Neil Dutton
July 9, 2021
I recently wrote about five tight ends who were experiencing an uptick in popularity with drafters over at the FFPC. I won’t rehash my findings for you here. What with time being in short supply as we continue on our journey through life. But I would suggest having a glance at it. In the interest of balance, I thought it only fair to have a…...

Most of the current talk in fantasy circles is of the Scott Fish Bowl, the drafting of which unofficially ushers in the new fantasy season.

With this in mind, I thought it might be fun to take a look at a few players at my favorite position…...
