2 Athletic Marvels You Must Add to Your Watchlist: Houston Texans Deep Sleepers
Cort Smith
July 16, 2019
Most fantasy analysis is devoted to sorting the order of players likely to have an immediate impact, but every year there are a handful of overlooked deep sleepers who emerge to fill a starting role in redraft. Last year, it was guys like Phillip Lindsay and James Conner at running back. Deep sleepers at WR are a little harder to find, but we did tell…...
5 Middle-Round Values for a Fantasy League Championship Contender
Larry Weinhauer
July 16, 2019
Any experienced fantasy manager can draft the first two to three rounds of your fantasy draft. Obviously some picks are better than others, but the same basic 36 players will be drafted in the first three rounds, in some order. This article will provide you with some great value players in the rounds immediately following those first 36 picks that can swing the pendulum in…...
The RotoViz Apps See a Christian McCaffrey, Aaron Jones, James Conner Chimera In This Trendy Sleeper
Shawn Siegele
July 16, 2019
Things move quickly at the running back position. Values shift in an instant. While elite wide receivers can actually benefit from the presence of other star WRs on the roster, backs need more of the spotlight to themselves in order to run up those dual-threat snap counts. This is what makes the two positions so fundamentally different in fantasy. It’s this tendency for the big…...
Lamar Jackson is the Konami Code Poster Child and a Screaming Best Ball Value
Jack Miller
July 15, 2019
Last year, Lamar Jackson broke the record for rushing attempts in a season by a quarterback. He started seven games. After Joe Flacco went down with a hip injury, Jackson averaged the seventh-most fantasy points per game among quarterbacks. He also averaged the ninth-most rushing attempts per game, 10th-most rushing yards per game, and 12th-most rushing fantasy points per game in the entire NFL over…...

Tyler Loechner
July 15, 2019
Ah, dynasty fantasy football. Also known as the closest you’ll ever get to being a real football owner or coach. And there are numerous dynasty startup draft strategies you can employ to turn your team into a perennial powerhouse. Dynasty management has a bit of everything: Short- and long-term planning, rookie development, trades, rebuilds, win-nows, and more. The variety is why dynasty is among the…...
Rookie Running Backs with Receiving Upside: Redraft Strategy for the Passing Revolution, Part 4
Ryan Collinsworth
July 15, 2019
Welcome to my NFL Passing Revolution series, where I examine how the NFL’s shift towards efficient pass-heavy offenses has affected the landscape of fantasy football. In Parts 2 and 3, I examined modern archetypes for fantasy RB1s, RB2s and RB3s. That analysis revealed that fantasy RB1s and RB3s share similar rushing vs. receiving splits but obvious differences in overall opportunity and production. RB2s, on the…...
What if Melvin Gordon Misses Games? Solving the Chargers Backfield Using the RotoViz Game Splits App
Curtis Patrick
July 15, 2019
Melvin Gordon has been a fantasy football godsend for the past several seasons. Having reinforced his ceiling with some of the best receiving production among NFL RBs since 2017, assuming health and availability he’s a no-brainer elite investment in fantasy drafts for 2019. But Gordon recently shared that he won’t be showing up for training camp without a new deal. Threatening to miss training camp…...
Zero RB Will Win Someone $1,000,000: NFL DRAFT Best Ball Championship Strategies
Michael Dubner
July 15, 2019
Michael Dubner looks at how we can use the Zero RB fantasy football draft strategy in the NFL DRAFT Best Ball Championship tournament. It’s been nearly six years since RotoViz’s Shawn Siegele penned the ground-breaking article “Zero RB, Antifragility, and the Myth of Value Based Drafting.” Despite the re-emergence of workhorse RBs, Zero RB is still thriving. While Zero RB may be effective in traditional…...

3 Non-Power-5 Devy Wide Receivers to Target
Matt Wispe
July 15, 2019
In devy leagues, Power-5 schools produce many of the top assets, and generally that makes perfect sense. Top high school prospects traditionally pick major programs to play out their college careers in hopes of improved draft stock and the chance at a national championship. But there are always a few gems at the small schools. Whether they were late-bloomers or were forced to transfer, non-Power-5-conference…...
Who Will Be the 2019 Chicago Bears? A Coaching Change Will Unleash This Absolutely Loaded Offense
Shawn Siegele
July 12, 2019
The Rams hired Sean McVay in 2017, and Los Angeles more than doubled their point output from 224 to 478, a worst-to-first turnaround that set the stage for 2018’s league-wide offensive revival. Meanwhile, Doug Pederson, Andy Reid disciple and second-year head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, led his team to a 41-33 Super Bowl victory over the Patriots. They were the third-highest scoring team in…...

Modern Fantasy RB1s and RB2s Look Nothing Alike: Redraft Strategy for the Passing Revolution, Part 3
Ryan Collinsworth
July 10, 2019
Welcome to my NFL Passing Revolution series, where I examine how the NFL’s shift towards efficient pass-heavy offenses has affected the landscape of fantasy football. In Part 2 of this series, I investigated how fantasy RB1s have changed over the last 17 years — most notably over the last two. Beginning in 2017, we observed an unprecedented improvement in receiving production that has re-defined the…...
The Fantasy RB1 Revival: Redraft Strategy for the Passing Revolution, Part 2
Ryan Collinsworth
July 9, 2019
In Part 1 of this series, I investigated the NFL’s passing revolution through the prism of global statistical trends. I noted that last season marked a pivotal uptick in overall efficiency (rather than pass/run ratio), which also substantially lifted running backs’ yards per carry average across the league. I also highlighted how fantasy RB1s have recently made a resurgence in receiving production. In this installment,…...
Why Buy Dante Pettis When This WR is Cheaper?
Cort Smith
July 9, 2019
I’m a dented can kind of man — if I can get the same product for cheaper and spend the savings elsewhere, I’m in. That’s the concept behind our “Why Buy?” series, which is inspired by Fantasy Douche’s Getting Something for Nothing article penned back in 2013. Whatever you want to call it — arbitrage, discount shopping, or simply fading overpriced players — there’s no…...
Boom or Bust: Why D’Onta Foreman Has Become A Zero RB Target
Mike Braude
July 8, 2019
When using the Zero RB strategy, owners target wide receivers and tight ends in the early rounds. Even if an early running back is drafted, teams using this strategy generally are weaker at the running back position. If a Zero RB team can hit on running backs who have value later on in the draft, they are set up very well to succeed. This year…...
How the NFL’s Passing Revolution Affects Fantasy Redraft Strategy
Ryan Collinsworth
July 8, 2019
Last Season Was Historic The 2018-19 NFL season may be best-remembered as the dawn of the so-called “passing revolution.” Sure, we’ve witnessed the NFL’s gradual shift towards efficient passing offenses over the last two decades, but last season was on another level. Patrick Mahomes took the league by storm en route to NFL MVP honors. He posted a ludicrous 5,097-50-12 passing line, which ranks eighth…...
Remember the Titan: Don’t Forget Marcus Mariota
Neil Dutton
July 8, 2019
There are certain people who, when they tweet something, it should be noted well. Jeremy Hardt, the former host of the RotoViz Mailbag show, is in my honest opinion, one such person. It was a tweet about his erstwhile show that caught my eye this week. If I were to write a puff piece, it’d be all about the Tenn Titans despite the slow historical…...
