Hey, RotoViz. I’ve been thinking about how we could get some more eyeballs and sweet, sweet clicks on these posts, and I decided that I’d drop some serious fantasy football knowledge, because I’ve been watching tape, studying stats, and making useful charts and graphs all night long. Be prepared to read an excruciatingly long diatribe detailing the lack of moves on the Tampa Bay offensive…...

A few people on the message boards asked what the best way is to leverage the Cheat Sheet app. I was trying to explain to them how I draft, which is roughly follow ADP with a slight emphasis toward players that we have ranked relatively higher at their position, when I realized that I could translate that process to a single number. So I used my…...

Over the summer, we’ve each been making – and refining – projections for all the relevant (and irrelevant) fantasy players from all 32 NFL teams. On the cusp of the regular season, I took a break to compare my quarterback rankings to the staff composite, and identified a few players that I like more than our consensus. Andy Dalton My Projection: QB 13 Staff Projection: QB 21…...

According to Fantasy Pros, the consensus second-ranked player in PPR is none other than Adrian Peterson. On the surface this makes sense given that Peterson is a sensational athlete. Is that enough to make him worthy of an early first round pick though? Here is why I won’t be drafting AP in 2015 at his current ADP. Peterson will be 30.5 years old when the…...

This off-season the RotoViz crew have generated (and are continually updating) projections for all 32 NFL teams using a souped up version of the Projection Machine.  These projections are powering some great Apps like the Cheat Sheet Calculator, the Draft Optimizer and the Auction Dominator, and have been fodder for numerous articles. In this article I won’t be covering every player like I did on RotoViz Radio. Instead…...

Every offseason fantasy drafters uncover a few favorite players. These are the guys we keep an eye on during drafts and take a little earlier than ADP suggests just to make sure they’re on our roster. We plant our flags in the sand next to these guys and couldn’t care less if our fantasy team doesn’t win a game as long as these guys outperform their ADP…...

The most famous RotoViz article on rookies and redraft was Coleman Kelly’s 2013 look at Rookie Derangement Syndrome. That piece focused on Alshon Jeffery versus DeAndre Hopkins. Jeffery went on to break out and win leagues for almost all of his owners. Hopkins had a very solid season as the No. 2 in Houston but wasn’t a fantasy force. Fast forward a season, and we’re…...

We see it frequently. Fantasy owners excessively target rookie wide receivers because they are disappointed about the production of last year’s rookies. Then it happens; the second year wide receiver improves all offseason and comes in ready to blow the top off. Here are the best examples in recent years: Player 1stYr FPs/G 2ndYr FPs/G Diff Larry Fitzgerald 2004 11.5 2005 18.99 7.49 Brandon Marshall 2006 4.19…...

Editor’s Note: Yes, medical students linger on our Forums and post detailed injury analyses. We liked this one, and decided to run it as an article. Before we start I highly suggest you read Dr. Budoff’s Arian Foster Injury Report where he covers a ton of information about Foster. The Injury Groin injury. Unfortunately, right off the bat the info is murky. Initial reports said he had…...

Every year there are players that for whatever reason seem to have people on opposite ends of the opinion spectrum. This year, Andre Ellington is a player generating fiery discourse, with both his detractors and supporters throwing out anything they can to garner support for their side in the great battle. When examining the weapons of their respective artillery, I find it very hard to sympathize with…...

This post is an update to something I did a few weeks ago. In that earlier post I equated auction values to ADP. That’s a much better way to look at current auction values considering the dearth of good resources we have on the auction format. The other thing that this list could be used for is as a guide to make preseason draft pick trades…....

I don’t like to make too many conclusions from NFL pre-season.[1]Which tells you that I will be drawing some kind of conclusion from a pre-season game. In general, player performance is difficult to judge. Usage is spread out, statistics lose meaning, and the things we see with our eyes generally deceive us. However, after watching Chris Ivory stay on the field during some passing downs, run…...
