Shawn Siegele looks at Tampa Bay’s addition of Julio Jones and discusses the fantasy fallout for their other trio of receivers. Reports indicate that the Buccaneers have signed Julio Jones to a one-year contract. We’re still a ways from knowing if Tampa is serious about a role for the former star and if he can generate the type of glowing practice reports that made Antonio…...
I know, I know. There must be literally dozens of people out there, unable to begin firmly crafting their redraft strategy for 2022 without knowing which late-round tight ends Neil Dutton, the position-obsessed writer from the UK, thinks could be in for a big year. The delay on my part has been inexcusable, and I beg forgiveness. But nonetheless, we are here now, ready and…...
Second-year wide receivers have long been one of the cornerstones of winning in fantasy football. However, recent ADPs have made it more challenging to draft these breakouts, particularly on Underdog. This means that we need to pay particular attention when these players carry discounts. Rondale Moore goes at the end of the 10th round on Underdog and the 12th on FFPC. That he plays with Kyler Murray…...
The new season brings with it several quarterback changes: Pittsburgh, Carolina, Denver, Washington, and more. For some of these receivers, it was an upgrade. For many, it looks like a downgrade. A few situations are ambiguous, particularly weaker offenses with receivers who have been productive in the past. With their ADPs dropping, could they present low-risk, high-reward options we want to chase? Today we’ll take…...
Shawn Siegele breaks down the key metrics that help you find the next group of league-shattering running backs. When we debuted the Advanced Stats Explorer last summer, I wanted to share some of the cool information, so I wrote 5 Veteran RBs Who Were Much Better Than Advertised in 2020. Three of those backs ended up on the Zero RB Candidates list, and each member…...
Shawn Siegele begins the 2022 Discount Series. Is there an easy way to draft Ezekiel Elliott’s upside without having to spring for his increasing price? Over the past several years, the Discount Series has led us to drafting league-winning players like Diontae Johnson, D’Andre Swift, Chris Godwin, and Devin Singletary. Locating those mispriced players goes a long way to winning leagues and taking down tournaments,…...
The 2022 Scott Fish Bowl (#SFB12) kicks off today! The scoring format is mainly unchanged from prior Fish Bowls, with the largest changes impacting the kicker and quarterback positions. Matt Spencer ran several simulations and noted that only 42 points separate draft positions in average projected points, underscoring the balance in scoring for this format. Before I jump into the changes, here’s a quick primer…...
Last summer, I looked at big gap and small gap running backs to identify undervalued backs based on their ADP. The idea comes from Jack Miller’s research on the win and hit rates for big or small gap backs, and from similar research by Charlie Kleinheksel before that. First, let’s define our terms: B1 and B2 running backs refer to a team’s RB1 and RB2 in backfields where there is…...
Angad Uppal examines the veterans who gained the most from the 2022 NFL Draft, along with those whose value took big hits, and some other veterans to keep an eye on over the coming months. The NFL Draft has shuffled a lot of our rookie values. Now that we know landing spots, rankings are beginning to coalesce in surprising ways. Players we once thought of…...
So how was your Week 1? You off to a flier, or already staring down the barrel? No matter! The fantasy football season, like its “real world” counterpart, is a marathon, not a sprint. There are plenty of twists and turns ahead. Here, for all your viewing pleasure, are all the key stats you need to know from the tight end position following the first…...
Week 1 is here, folks. Training camp reports are a thing of the past. Preseason games have been banished to the back of our collective minds. Hard Knocks is done and dusted for another year, with the highlight of the season being a three-minute drone shot flying through a building. All of this is over, with real games mere hours away as you read this…....
Blair Andrews, the mind behind The Wrong Read, goes through his top targets in every round of a 20-round fantasy draft. Which Year 2 receivers are we targeting everywhere? Which late running backs offer the best way to round out a Zero-RB squad? And who is the next Tee Higgins? There’s one more day before kickoff, so for those of you still drafting tonight (or…...
RotoViz has done extensive research showing that both quantity and quality at wide receiver are crucial for maximizing the chances of winning your league. If you’re not having success with Zero RB, it probably means you aren’t drafting enough WRs. However, sometimes even the best laid plans go awry. Great early values at quarterback, tight end, and sometimes even running back (perish the thought) present…...
Shawn Siegele provides his Zero RB Top 15 Countdown updates for readers looking to dominate their home leagues over the next two nights. A lot of big-money drafts remain, and it’s never too early to prepare your first waiver-wire run. With two nights of drafting remaining – plus a handful of post-Thursday drafts in FFPC contests – we’ve got a lot still to be determined…...
Thomas Emerick takes a final look at offensive line continuity before the start of the regular season. Which teams can expect strong offensive line play in the early going? The top offenses and best run-blocking lines tend to return most of their offensive line starters. Those finishing near the bottom replace more starters on average from the previous year. Great scheme and personnel still remain…...
Shawn Siegele continues the Discount Series with a look at Tyler Lockett and four similar wide receivers who can replace his production for less. Tyler Lockett has always been one of my favorite NFL players. He went to K-State, stayed for four seasons, and set records there. Lockett entered the NFL as an old, undersized WR, but one with 4.4 speed and coming off two…...
We are in the final days until kickoff of the 2021 NFL Season, which means it’s time for the RotoViz Staff to give their boldest predictions. These #taeks aren’t so bold that they are wildly impossible, but rather are calculated predictions that are more likely to occur than the public believes. Michael Dubner – Tee Higgins is a WR1 This is my follow-up on last…...
Shawn Siegele examines his FFPC Main Events from this week and analyzes recent ADP changes. He provides seven key takeaways to help you dominate your Labor Day weekend drafts. Over the last week, I’ve had the opportunity to draft with Colm Kelly for RotoViz Overtime, with Dave Caban, Blair Andrews, and Curtis Patrick for Team RotoViz, with Pete Overzet and Pat Kerrane for Ship Chasing,…...
Shawn Siegele presents all of his targets for the 2021 season, including his 30 top-priority players for 2021. Last season, his priority list was the blueprint he used to add two more Main Event titles with teams that went on to finish 12th and 31st overall. His foundation backs included personal ME picks in Alvin Kamara and Dalvin Cook. The priority list also encouraged you…...
With draft season in full swing, Sam Wallace identifies three wide receivers to target in the double-digit rounds that offer cheap volume on their respective offenses.
