Thanksgiving is one of the best days of every year, a chance to gather with friends, family, and football to express our gratitude for all of the big joys and little pleasures of life. Football fans could be particularly grateful yesterday. After a season of low-scoring and often depressing games, the three-game Thanksgiving slate featured two back-and-forth barnburners and a hard-fought effort from the Giants…...

In this weekly article, Ryan Ramsarran uses the Advanced Stat Explorer and other RotoViz tools to dive deep into wide receiver usage trends. Usage is key for making waiver wire adds, start/sit decisions, and finding the next blow-up WR in DFS.

Our goal with the Zero RB Watch List is to help you locate RB breakouts and waiver adds before they happen, but this column isn’t just for Zero RB owners. We’re just as focused on the high-profile backs. Understanding workloads is key to making tough redraft and dynasty trades. The RotoViz Screener and NFL Stat Explorer provide a smorgasbord of data as we dive into…...

We’re back for the Week 11 installment of running back advanced stats. Each week, I’ll use the Advanced Stats Explorer to examine the underlying metrics of notable rushers.

If you took my advice last week and rostered the Ravens D/ST, you may not have to spend another dime of free agent money on the defensive side of the ball this year.

In 1 Big Thing, Blair Andrews uses the RotoViz tools to take a deep dive into an interesting, unique, and potentially actionable development from the last week of fantasy football.

That hasn’t been…...

The tight end position was its usual stellar self in Week 11. Travis Kelce continued his dominance at the top of the position, with George Kittle not far behind him. Then we saw a host of uninspiring choices rise to the challenge, with Austin Hooper delivering his best fantasy performance of the year ahead of steady outings from Pat Friermuth and Dawson Knox. It wasn’t…...

Bjorn Yang-Vaernet examines which players on the waiver wire are worth prioritizing for Week 12 and highlights others to stash preemptively. Week 11 was very weird. Through the morning games, it felt like real-life scoring was way down and any fantasy-relevant production that did occur happened through random players. However, the afternoon and night games restored my faith in the NFL with Davante Adams, Tee…...

Shawn Siegele breaks down some of the biggest performances of Week 11 and discusses the key strategic moves that will determine your 2022 playoff results.  Offensive trends in 2022 haven’t been particularly conducive to rookie wide receiver scoring, and that made Week 11 even more fun by contrast.
