NOTE: Our tools will be updated each week as soon as data from our stats provider is available. Generally, data from Sunday’s games will be available early Tuesday afternoon. 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.
Diontae Johnson had an incredible rookie season. There’s no other way to put it. Although his end-of-year numbers — 59 receptions for 680 yards and five scores — don’t really jump off the page, the Toledo product managed to post positive Fantasy Points Over Expectation (FPOE) despite playing in one of the worst situations imaginable. Before the season, it looked like one of the best…...
Not many people were talking about Darius Slayton in fantasy football last offseason. He was a fifth-round draft pick who missed the majority of OTAs and training camp with a hamstring injury. His production profile and paltry draft equity suggested that finding any level of success in the NFL was always going to be a long shot for Slayton, and the lingering summer injury all but put…...
In the 2019 regular season, Derrick Henry led all running backs in fantasy points over expectation (FPOE) with 82.5. It was the 15th-highest FPOE mark among all RBs since 2000. In 2018, he was 11th among RBs with 37.4. In fact, he’s never had a season with negative FPOE. He carried the underdog Titans past the Patriots and Ravens, rushing for 377 yards on 64…...
I talked about roster management in a previous article and how it’s one of my favorite aspects of playing in dynasty leagues. Well, guess what? I have a roster management move you should make this offseason. I believe that if you wait any longer, the “sweet spot” that we’re in will close and the value won’t be the same. There are several reasons I believe…...
The 2019 College football season may be in the rearview now, but it’s always football season! National Signing Day is here, which means a brand new batch of top college football playmakers is here! Get pumped! Our Devy rankings team members (Travis May, Curtis Patrick, Matt Wispe, and Stefan Lako) have all recently updated their rankings across the board ahead of National Signing Day and…...
The 2019 NFL season is officially over. The last game of the 100th season of the NFL is in the books. There will be no more pads hitting pads, referees whistles (or flags), touchdowns or turnovers until September. Here we will be looking back on the rookie season of the player taken with the first overall selection in last year’s NFL Draft, and looking forward…...
With the 2019 season already over I was looking at potential bargains entering the 2020 preseason with my eyes locked on the upcoming draft season. There are plenty of things that can turn a player into a buy-low candidate and put a bargain-tag next to his name: a drop in performance, a new teammate being used more on offense, a set of bad game scripts,…...
Thanks to the hard work of Mike Beers, we’ll be releasing an updated version of the Running Back Prospect Lab this week. In a nutshell, the Lab allows users to choose from a number of variables, create a model from these variables, and then use this model to project an RB’s fantasy output at the professional level. You can find the full-fledged version of the…...
If you drafted Michael Gallup as a rookie, you were admittedly disappointed. However, like everything in fantasy football, context matters. Gallup’s incoming measurables and draft capital were strong but not elite. His landing spot in 2018 came with some question marks such as: A quarterback who failed to eclipse 4,000 passing yards in a season during his career A team that averaged 26th in the…...
Michael Pittman Jr. has the former NFL player bloodline going for him, but why else should we believe this young man will succeed in the NFL? Is he just another “good, but not great” receiver from USC? Does it matter that it took him forever to break out for an entire season? Let’s find out. From the Beginning For some of you (the old ones),…...
I drafted so much Brandin Cooks last offseason. He was coming off of four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons and seemed destined for another in what looked like one of the league’s most potent offenses. He finished the season with 110.5 points and a 2.9% win rate — the fourth-lowest win rate among all players drafted in at least 200 drafts. Here’s the thing: I’m going to…...
If you’re not weak of memory you’d remember how Minnesota started the 2019 season. It was something bizarre, so strange, in fact, that there were virtually no modern-era comparisons to what Kirk Cousins and the rest of the Vikings put together during the first three to four weeks of the season. For those who have forgotten about it, here is a quick refresher: Through three…...
Shawn Siegele is most associated with his high stakes victories in redraft and incredible luck in the MFL10 of Death, but dynasty is the format where his strategic insights can yield the greatest dividends over time. In this introduction to the Dynasty Workshop, he’ll preview the series and explain how you can create a permanent championship window. With the Super Bowl this Sunday, we’ve officially…...
Roster management has quickly become one of my favorite aspects of dynasty football. The concept of running a team year-round, crafting it and tweaking it to my liking, and scoring big on off-season trades is just as fun as the in-season thrill of weekly matchups. I am working on being more aggressive this offseason. There is one player I have come to love throughout the…...
The winner of the award for the best tight end in college football is draft-eligible in 2020. Yet some ranking services seem to be less than impressed with him. This is a grave injustice, and I will not rest until everyone knows the name of Harrison Bryant. BACKGROUND A native of Georgia, Bryant played baseball and basketball in addition to football at John Milledge Academy…....
In Dynasty Trade Targets 2020 – Running Back Edition, Curtis Patrick gives away the names of three running backs he’s buying right now. As rookie fever sets in across the dynasty community, the offseason trade window also begins to crack open. I’m sharing three of my top dynasty trade targets at the running back position for the 2020 offseason. One of these players is an…...
Joe Burrow is the first quarterback who will be taken in the 2020 NFL Draft. But the QB talent of this class does not start and end with Burrow. Jordan Love will hear his name called not long after Burrow. BACKGROUND Love attended Liberty High School in Bakersfield, California. He played football and basketball in high school, and in his senior year, he was a…...
Last week, the quarterback taken by the San Diego Chargers with the first overall selection in the 2004 NFL Draft announced his retirement. On Monday, Jay Glazer reported that the Chargers were set to move on from the QB they got when they traded the first to the New York Giants. If Glazer’s report is accurate, Philip Rivers’ time with the Chargers ends after 228 regular-season…...
Tyler Boyd was an afterthought. He entered the 2018 season as the Bengals’ WR3 behind A.J. Green and John Ross. He was coming off of a season in which he averaged just 3.2 targets and 22.5 receiving yards per contest. His best ball ADP was WR143. Boyd didn’t get the message. He racked up 1,028 yards and seven touchdowns in only 14 games en route…...
In the first three parts of this series, we looked at running backs and wide receivers drafted in the “RB Dead Zone” — Rounds 3 through 6 — and those drafted in the double-digit rounds. Today, we’ll combine everything we’ve learned (with some help from the Fanball Roster Construction Explorer) to talk about one of the most potent strategies in fantasy football. A Quick Refresher…...
