Shawn Siegele looks at the monster performances from Aaron Jones, Tevin Coleman, and Christian McCaffrey, and breaks down the running back workloads for every NFC backfield ahead of Week 9.

Welcome back to the Buy Low Report. As usual, we will combine insight from the SoS Streaming App and the RotoViz Screener to identify players who…...

Kyle Rudolph did virtually nothing to justify my faith in him last week, as he delivered a dud on Thursday Night. To be fair to Kyle, his team’s firm commitment towards #EstablishingTheRun meant that it was hardly a day for any pass catcher. But my mood was lifted over the weekend by the showings from Jonnu Smith and Dallas Goedert. Smith posted 19.8 PPR points…...

Waiver Wire Dumpster Dives takes you beyond the obvious plays and helps you find undervalued gems for deep leagues. Four more teams are on their bye weeks and everyone is feeling the pinch. As waiver wires thin out, some GMs will make desperation trades to fill in their roster this week. It’s a great time to offer up a two-for-one deal that nets you the better…...

If you spend any time reading RotoViz, eventually you’ll hear us talking about expected points. Expected points (EP) are the number of fantasy points that a target or carry should score based on game situation — down, distance, and field position. In other words, expected points allow us to transform raw opportunity, such as carries and targets, directly into fantasy points. From there we can…...
