Robert Woods was drafted at the beginning of the second round in 2013 by Buffalo, but had to wait six years before seeing his first breakout season. Following his first 200-point PPR season in 2018, he put up two more in consecutive seasons. The 49ers selected Michael Crabtree with the 10th pick of the 2009 draft, but he did not break out until his fourth…...

Due to off-the-field issues, Tyreek Hill was not selected until the fifth round of the 2016 draft. If based solely on attributes, he would have easily come off of the board in one of the first two rounds. Hill’s talent was never in doubt, and he proved it by putting up more than 200 PPR points and finishing as the PPR WR18 during his rookie…...

Kyler Murray has received his fair share of criticism in recent years, but it was not that long ago when he was a fantasy darling after finishing as the QB4 in his explosive sophomore season. Largely on the back of an elite rushing workload, Murray took the league by storm in 2020. But it is not as if he came out of nowhere after being…...

Anyone who is paying attention to the 2025 NFL Draft is surely aware by now of how strong of an incoming rookie running back class we have this year. A talented RB can create opportunities anywhere, but things get a little easier in a landing spot featuring backfield vacancies from the year prior. If the RB holdovers from the previous season do not present much…...

Kenny Golladay came into the NFL in 2017 as a late third-round pick out of Northern Illinois. He was able to show flashes of his potential in his rookie season before coming on strong in his second and third seasons. Unfortunately, Golladay suffered hamstring and hip injuries that limited him to five games in 2020 and he was unable to regain his pre-injury form over…...

When looking for ideal landing spots for 2025’s rookie wide receiver class, finding teams with a lack of competition and an abundance of open opportunities is a good place to start. Many of the teams across the NFL can offer one or the other, but there are a select few that can offer prospects both. While some of the best destinations may be obvious, there…...

Andrew Luck came into the NFL in 2012 touted as a generational quarterback prospect and proceeded to finish as fantasy’s QB10 in his rookie season. Not bad on the surface, but it was not all roses for Indianapolis’ first overall pick, as his 18 interceptions fell just one short of being the most in the league, and his 54% completion percentage ranked 42nd among QBs…....

When it comes to fantasy football, receiving production at running back, wide receiver, and tight end is the backbone of strong roster construction. While counting stats such as yards, receptions, and touchdowns help to tell the story, delving deeper can help fantasy managers identify breakouts before they occur, rather than react to last year’s trends. That is where RotoViz’s Advanced Stats Explorer comes in. With…...

The Running Back Prospect Lab is one of my favorite tools on the site, but it’s not exactly a precision instrument. It uses a simple linear model to predict an RB’s early NFL career based on a few important college metrics. However, the simplicity ends up being a benefit — it knows what to look for and isn’t often fooled by outliers. Even in a…...
