One of the most important indicators of potential breakouts is opportunity. Barriers to playing time is one variable that is important for valuing rookie running backs. Josh Ferguson is an under-appreciated talent that has an easy route to making an early impact in 2016….

In my first article I talked about formulating a plan for the first five picks in my first MFL10 draft and covered pros and cons of a variety of positional distributions, but there was one constant: no quarterbacks. It may have been implied through not mentioning them, but let me be as clear as possible: I am as much of a believer in the ZeroQB philosophy in seasonal leagues…...

As Ben Gretch recently noted, Zero RB is an uncomfortable strategy to fully commit to. For this reason, it comes as no surprise that the approach is still facing a level of resistance in the fantasy community. Anthony Amico has explained why the running back position could make a comeback in 2016, and there’s no denying that 2015 was a great year to be a…...

The Calgary Stampeders were the only CFL team on hand. Simonise posted a 40-yard dash time of 4.52 seconds in windy conditions…...

One of the ideas that’s most difficult to pin down when talking football is the idea of talent. Stephen Gostkowski is a very good kicker and I’ve seen arguments that say his impact on a game could be equal to a running back’s impact on a game. But how many conversations about the top players in the game would you have to have before Gostkowski’s…...

Source: Turner wants to decrease Freeman’s carries in 2016 | www.myajc.com “It’s about growth,” Turner told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “Free had a good year, but I’m expecting even a better year. Well, you’re saying, how can it be better? It can be even better with less carries or less catches because I’d obviously like to get Tevin (Coleman) more involved and that also keeps Free…...

If the Washington backfield stays status quo through training camp, Matt Jones will be one of the least accomplished running backs to ever enter a season as an unquestioned NFL starter….

Jonathan Stewart is in the exact same situation as last year, and is getting drafted far too low in fantasy leagues. … Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership LevelsAlready a member? Log in here...

Does anybody not named Davante Adams mom still like him? I mean other than me. Take a look at Adams dynasty value since last year. Jeff Janis is now worth more than Davante Adams. That’s…unusual. Not only has Janis barely been on the (regular season) field, he’s somehow even worse on a per-target basis, although his sample size is certainly quite small. Sure, sure, Janis could develop…...

A new head coach, and yet another offensive coordinator, have entered Ryan Tannehill’s life in Miami. Tannehill has shown a few growing pains as he adjusts to another new offense, occasionally inaccurate and inconsistent. But many prominent thinkers within the game think that 2016 will be a breakout year for the fifth year man…and so does Brady Quinn. We don’t like to say breakout, but RotoViz…...

Source: Titans training camp battle: Running back – Titan Insider Sankey, the first running back drafted in 2014, got a crash course in special teams last year after losing the starting job, though he struggled as a kickoff returner. Sankey has mostly been at the back of the line when it came to reps in OTAs, but Mularkey told him not to be discouraged. “He…...

The Indianapolis passing game is probably going to give us league-winners due to volume and opportunity. The Colts play fast, and they lost 161 targets in free agency. Andrew Luck will be throwing to an uncluttered depth chart. In fact, we could see multiple league-winners in the Colts passing game . . . and Donte Moncrief still not be among them….
