For an immediate look at the games from the previous weekend, please check out our Monday Review tool which includes a collection of preliminary stats.
Jarvis Landry’s hip started bothering him during the 2019 preseason training camp. He was held out of much of camp and practiced sparingly throughout the season. He rested it three weeks after the season, trying to avoid surgery, and then played in the Pro Bowl. It was during that game, when he flared it up while just “jogging around” that he realized how much pain…...
Before the draft, I took a look at a few late-round boom/bust draft picks to help win your best ball leagues. The general premise was to find players with a high weekly ceiling that wasn’t fully priced into their average draft position. Now that we’re beyond the draft and free agency, it’s a little easier to project early depth charts. There’s still some risk drafting…...
The MFL10 of Death is annually one of my favorite leagues. Drafting against these experts is an absolute blast, and I want to thank Pat Thorman for putting it together and donating the proceeds to charity. Each season I like to break down all 20 rounds to get a feel for how my compatriots are playing. It goes without saying that I hold all of…...
Last time we looked at how to approach the quarterback position in FFPC Superflex best ball leagues. We used the FFPC Roster Construction Explorer to uncover a near cheat code that returned a 16% win rate (albeit on a relatively small sample). QB is certainly one of the most important positions to get right in Superflex leagues. But there’s another position that might be almost…...
Stefon Diggs is the RotoViz poster child. D.J. Moore has made a strong case over the last two years, but Diggs has the advantage of being a former fifth-round pick who blossomed into an NFL superstar, whereas Moore’s success was more readily predicted by mainstream media based on his first-round pedigree. As such, it’s no surprise that the RV redraft rankings have Diggs as the…...
Last year, Curtis Patrick gave you Austin Ekeler long before anyone else had solved the Chargers backfield riddle. Now, he shares his 2020 fantasy running backs who won’t cost you an early pick but could land you a championship. This isn’t an article that focuses on the no-brainer, high-volume running backs being selected in the first handful of rounds of every fantasy draft. You can’t…...
When an immovable object is met with an unstoppable force, something has to give, right? Alright, maybe that analogy is a little over the top, but it helps paint a picture of a fascinating offseason debate. On one side of the equation, you have those who point to multiple years of coaching history and player usage to predict future involvement. On the other hand, you…...
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote an article about the importance of wide receiver efficiency and found that we want to target efficient WRs who are going into their second or (to a lesser degree) third NFL season. This isn’t a new idea – Blair Andrews wrote about it last year in The Wrong Read No. 59 – but the extent to which efficient, inexperienced WRs…...
In Lesson 6, we looked at all of the best two-round starts in best ball. Given what we know about RB dominance in 2019, the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches were surprising. In today’s Lesson 7 of the 2020 Best Ball Workshop, Shawn Siegele examines the key RB tactics throughout your draft, including the sweet spots for selecting your RB3 and RB4. It’s Best…...
While trying to find ways to fight shelter-in-place boredom in this sports-deprived environment, I’ve taken on (probably too many) new FFPC dynasty teams, which inspired this guide to how I’ve built teams in four different formats: standard (one quarterback) and superflex head-to-head leagues, and standard and superflex best-ball squads. The first part focused on my general philosophy as well as the quarterback and running back…...
The calendar turning to June means the redraft season is about to pick up. If you are starting to begin your research and gather insight to prepare for your upcoming draft, you may notice some names and orders of names near the top of current ADP lists from what you may have remembered at the end of last season. Offseason hype, coach speak, free agency…...
Monty won’t come out and say this, of course, but he’s one of the top high-stakes players in the world. He’s also an FFPC veteran with a wealth of experience in their various formats. I asked him to discuss his approach to FFPC dynasty leagues, including startups, orphans, and rookie drafts, and I’m excited to get his thoughts on both classic and superflex leagues. In…...
Teams that win fantasy championships have one, often multiple, player(s) that significantly outperform ADP. Conservatism rarely pushes teams to the top of their leagues’ standings. In fact, it often works against them, anchoring them to the middle of the pack. This isn’t a new idea and we often talk about upside on the site. Historically, we’ve offered a number of tools that provide snapshots of…...
Zig when others zag. It’s a common refrain in the fantasy community, but here’s the thing: Not that many people actually do it. Over the years, RotoViz has become well-known for its contrarian beliefs, most notably with Shawn Siegele’s famous Zero RB article. More than six years later, Zero RB is still one of the most hotly debated topics in fantasy football. Zig when others…...
In Dynasty Trade Targets 2020 – Superflex QB Edition, Curtis Patrick states his case for three quarterbacks he’s buying right now. Are they good fits for your team? Read on and find out. Superflex has finally taken its place as the preferred format for new dynasty startups in the community. In 2020, over 40% of dynasty startup leagues on FPPC have been Superflex, and over…...
One concept that fantasy owners have become enamored with recently is the need to “buy low” and “sell high.” At its core, I don’t have an issue with that concept. If you can stay one step ahead of changing values up and down your roster, you should. However, given the right context and situation, any player can be bought or sold regardless of price. Attacking…...
Getting the quarterback position right in best ball leagues is one of the easiest and most effective ways to gain an advantage. Simply picking the right number of QBs in the right rounds gives you an immediate edge, before we even get to the problem of individual player selection. But what if you’re in a Superflex best ball draft? The FFPC has offered Superflex best…...

Choosing the right defensive roster construction is one of the key tactical ingredients of a winning roster. In 20-round drafts, there are some clear takeaways. Early defenses are a trap due to the low correlation of performance from year to year, but that’s not the biggest danger. Selecting just one, or even two defenses, is one of the easiest ways to fall behind from a…...
