Todd Gurley, the No. 1 non-quarterback fantasy football player in points per game in both 2017 and 2018, is currently being overdrafted in the second round of best ball drafts. Gurley’s ADP has declined in the last month, but it has not fallen far enough. There should be extreme concern about Gurley’s health and his future in the NFL. The Information We Have We know that…...
Should redraft players target rookies? In this series, Dave Caban reviews rookie data from the past ten years to answer this question. We’ve spent the last four months poring over prospect profiles, evaluating measurables, and analyzing landing spots. While the majority of this research was done through a dynasty focused lens, the excitement it generated will undoubtedly find its way into our redraft processes…....
This article is part of a series on dynasty WRs looking at the RotoViz redraft rankings and asking “what if we’re right?”[1]I’m using the royal we here since I don’t actually contribute to our rankings. Many thanks to our redraft rankers: Blair Andrews, Curtis Patrick, Dave Caban, Hasan Rahim, Monty Phan and Shawn Siegele. After all, our rankings are trying to determine the most likely outcome…...
Last year I wrote about my hometown hero, San Diego State University alum Rashaad Penny, as an elite NFL prospect. Although he was from a small Mountain West school, he sported a class-leading College Dominator Rating above 50% and had the second-highest score in the RB Prospect Lab. Yet Penny was possibly overdrafted in reality when he was taken by the run-heavy Seattle Seahawks in the…...
As mentioned in my previous article, the Kansas City Chiefs have plenty of opportunity available for their receivers. We know that Travis Kelce, Sammy Watkins, and Mecole Hardman should see plenty of volume this season. However, considering that Tyreek Hill may not play this season,[1]or at the very least face a lengthy suspension there could be additional opportunity available for the several auxiliary wide receivers…...
The 2019 MFL10 of Death kicked off yesterday, and Patrick Thorman’s brainchild again provides a murderer’s row of competition. As Shawn Siegele tries to defend his title, he’ll use the Fanball Roster Construction Explorer, the Fanball ADP Dashboard, the RotoViz Screener, and the staff rankings to build out his early round strategy. In this edition of the Best Ball Workshop, he breaks down some of…...
It has been said in the past that NFL stands for Not For Long, as well as No Fun League and of course the lesser used National Football League. All three may be true, but the first pretty much sums up the fleeting nature of the game, and the careers of the men who ply their trade in it. But it seems that after missing…...
A few years ago, RotoViz OG Kevin Cole created a formula for determining which teams were the best landing spots for rookie wide receivers. In fantasy and real football, performance is a function of opportunity. Whether the opportunity was created through talent, draft position, or lack of competition, it doesn’t matter. All that matters is raw opportunity because targets are the lifeblood of fantasy scoring…....
In my recent article on Scott Miller I took a breather from telling you why the diminutive phenom is a must add, so that I could briefly profile his teammate, second-year WR Justin Watson. If Watson is interesting enough to warrant a mention in another player’s article, he’s probably worth his own article right? Here it is: Outrageous Production Justin Watson was the Buccaneers 2018…...
Acquiring devy assets is kind of like investing in the stock market. With time remaining in college, their value could drastically increase with a productive season or it could tank just as quickly. For rebuilding teams, this increases the importance of hitting on early-round picks. Additionally, with the volatility of these selections, finding a late-round gem can be incredibly valuable to teams. Whether the player…...
Identifying early breakouts at the wide receiver position is among the most important pieces of information available for devy owners. Prospects that produce at a high level at a young age are better bets to succeed in the NFL, period. But at the risk of telling you what you probably already know — that you should be targeting the likes of Rondale Moore, Jalen Reagor,…...
On the heels of Cort Smith’s posts identifying the overvalued picks and standout sleepers according to Fanball (formerly MFL10s) ADP, we’re using the Dynasty ADP app to find similar trends in FFPC start-up leagues. Because, as Cort points out in his pieces, don’t love the player, love his price. This has been noted before, but because FFPC dynasty rosters allow a maximum of 18 total…...
Dynasty rookie drafts are in full swing this spring, and if you’re like me, it’s not enough to just play in an IDP league — it’s got to be a deep IDP league, requiring you to unearth rookie gems on a regular basis. In the midst of a dynasty rookie draft that requires 11 IDP starters, I’ve been digging in to find the mid-to-late-round values…...
In Lesson 7 of the Best Ball Workshop, we learned that RB-heavy teams have very poor win rates. In fact, if you start RBx4 or select RBs in four of the first five rounds, then your chances of winning drop to approximately one in 20. Far from being fueled exclusively by the RB apocalypse of 2015, RBx4 had it’s worst year in 2018, winning less…...
Being player agnostic is one of the best edges you can find in fantasy football in 2019 — don’t fall in love with a player, fall in love with his price. With the suite of RotoViz tools, finding this year’s most mispriced players is easier than ever. We already looked at some players that we think are being drafted too low. On the flip…...
Andy Isabella may be one of the best rookie values in recent memory, but he’s not the best WR value in this draft class. No, that honor goes to a different senior WR from a non-power 5 conference. One who actually broke out before he was 22 years old. How can there be a better WR value than Isabella, the uber productive WR whom…...
There are a lot of ways to win in dynasty. Some dynasty owners will plan on losing the first few years while building “dream team” rosters. Others tend to overly focus on youth and/or highly touted rookies. There’s also the “get your guy” owner who will undoubtedly reach for a player often rounds ahead of ADP. You can almost bank on there being at…...
Last week I took part in a devy mock draft hosted by Greg Brandt from over at Devy Watch. It was a 12-team, PPR scoring, non-Superflex draft with a player pool consisting of 2020, 2021, and 2022 eligible prospects. Two of my fellow RotoViz writers, Travis May and Matt Wispe, also took part. My goal here is to walk you through the draft, round…...

With the suite of RotoViz tools, finding this year’s most mispriced players is easier than ever, so let’s take a look at three deep sleepers we like more than the drafting public. By…...
We’re back again to offer our thoughts on prominent contract year players at one of the fantasy footballs most important positions, namely running back. Yes, I know the popular theory is that they don’t matter. But getting a good one can be the reason you take home a fantasy crown. Drafting a bad one can be the reason you are swearing angrily at your…...
