The Bills drafted Devin Singletary in 2019 to pair with veteran Frank Gore in his age-36 season. Singletary bested Gore in snap share (68% vs. 35%) and rush share (42% vs. 36%). He also edged Gore in rushing yards (775 vs. 599). Singletary saw a healthy rush share and a 12% target share (No. 17), and averaged 12.5 PPR/G (No. 27) as a rookie. The…...
“Self-examination, the observation of one’s own experience, is the very root of the intelligence.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti. Using self-examination to accept the person you are could be worthwhile for your mental health, but it can’t generally improve your performance at a craft. Using self-examination to become better requires action. And it begins with an honest evaluation of what you have been doing and what results…...
Michael Thomas immediately earned target volume as a rookie with the Saints. In Thomas’ rookie season, the Saints had three receivers with over 100 targets, including Thomas (121), Brandin Cooks (117), and Willie Snead (104). As a rookie, Thomas ranked 21st in EP/G and third in FPOE/G with a 19% target share. After Year 1, Thomas posted three consecutive seasons with 145 or more targets…....
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 blowup WR in DFS. We’ll use the advanced WR metrics to highlight a few buy-low options at the position each week. Week 12 is in the books, and…...

With the kickoff of the NFL season just around the corner, the next three days present some exciting challenges for drafters. The FFPC Main Event and FantasyPros Championship drafts run through Saturday. If you’re drafting after the Thursday night game, you’re able to put those points directly into your starting lineup. These drafts are simultaneously some of the craziest, with Thursday night players moving up…...
Advising on home keeper leagues can be challenging since there are various ways to run these leagues. Some allow keepers to be retained without any added cost, some permit players to be kept forever in the round in which they were initially drafted, and others have a depreciation tax year over year. And still, other leagues operate like mini-dynasties with non-snaking drafts in reverse order…...
Garrett Wilson massively outperformed in fantasy a year ago, putting up more than 1,100 yards despite historically bad quarterback play. Now Michael Dubner reveals the rookie WR on the same path Wilson blazed a year ago. With one week of drafting remaining in the FFPC Main Event and FantasyPros contests, and 4% of Best Ball Mania drafts remaining, I’m bringing you an urgent message not…...
We’ve had to white-knuckle through the end of training camp with injuries to skill position players, so it can be easy to take our eyes off the trenches. Though as I lay out in my annual summer series for RotoViz, there is a correlation worth exploring between starting offensive line continuity entering the season and the offensive production that ensues. My most recent piece put…...
With new information after a week of cuts, injuries, and wild ADP developments, Shawn Siegele re-examines all 15 backs from the Zero RB Candidates Countdown. In the ever evolving world of fantasy pricing, three backs fall out, and three new players join the list. The Update helps me work through the logic behind the RB selections ahead of my most important drafts and hopefully provide…...
I grew up in Dallas in the 1980s, and during the time south of Nolan Ryan’s arrival, the Texas Rangers were usually just north of horrid. One of our most noteworthy players back then was Pete Incaviglia. After playing with an independent club in 1985, he signed with the Rangers, and having never played a minor league game, he debuted in The Show in ’86…....
We’ve arrived at the best week of the fantasy season. Redraft week. And the best mix of entry level ($350), field size, and grand prize ($1 million) comes in the FFPC FantasyPros tournament. Last week, I published my 2023 Home League Draft Plan and then complemented it a couple of days ago with the player-specific version, 39 Priority Targets and How to Play Them. Today,…...
Meng Song discusses a couple of mispriced early-round players who could be league-winners in 2023. There’s plenty of information out there regarding late-round ADP values and mid-round sleepers, like Mat Irby’s three middle-round running backs who could be stars. Players who outperform their ADPs certainly add value to a fantasy roster, but it’s rare to hit on true league-winners in the middle or late rounds…...
For fantasy drafters who want to compete for $1,000,000 in the 2023 FFPC Main Event, but can’t justify the $2000 buy-in, I have good news: the FFPC FantasyPros Championship is the perfect way to dip your toe in the water. Like the Main Event, the grand prize is a cool million. Unlike popular best ball tournaments (and like the Main Event) The FantasyPros Championship is…...
In what has become an offseason tradition, my RotoViz Report co-host Hasan Rahim and I joined up with the boys from Ship Chasing — Pat Kerrane, Peter Overzet, and Ben Gretch — to co-draft and co-manage an FFPC Main Event team. In past seasons we’ve drafted live on stream. This season we’re trying something different: a slow draft. In Part 1 we detailed the chaos…...
Shawn Siegele breaks down his philosophy for 2023 drafts by position group and highlights his 39 priority targets. We had a lot of great content over the weekend, with Mat Irby providing his home league targets at RB and WR, Curtis Patrick detailing how to execute Hero RB and which players to select, and Bjorn Yang-Vaernet exploring the 5 Situations in Rounds 1 or 2…...
Bjorn Yang-Vaernet examines the situations for five players going in Rounds 1 and 2 to see if there is more hidden downside or upside than the market is pricing in. Last year I wrote a same-style article to dive deeper into player situations that many drafters were blindly accepting or were not aware of at all. Among the fantasy situations that I questioned were: Would…...
Believe it or not, despite being 45, I’ve played fantasy football since 1991. How, at the age of thirteen, did I stumble into what was, at that time, some hybrid of a pub and a parlor game – a whiskey-soaked alternative to Bridge or Dungeons and Dragons, where scores were kept on scraps of graphing paper next to an open Sporting News? My father, a…...
Curtis Patrick’s 2023 Hero RB Draft Guide reviews Hero RB candidates and preferred roster construction for league winning results. 2023 Hero RB Draft Guide: Candidates and Roster Construction RotoViz is famous for Zero RB strategy. Shawn Siegele is the Godfather of this strategy and remains its foremost spokesman. Even Shawn doesn’t use this strategy all the time. Drafting a running back in the early rounds of…...
In Part 1 of the 2023 Zero RB Candidates Countdown, Shawn Siegele profiled backs with the types of explosive physical profiles that could help you win even at bargain basement costs. In Part 2, he broke down the league’s most dangerous backups, players with standalone value and the talent upside to land in next year’s top-10 backs. Today, he unveils the top five. Welcome to the…...
