Last week we took a look at some NFC win totals to pursue. Now we’ll tackle the AFC side of things with some futures bets that look either too high or too low. It’s the perfect time to start taking a collective look at all of the transactions a team has made over the course […]
Fade Rookie Wide Receivers in Redraft Leagues
One of the most successful things veteran fantasy football players do is avoid the hype surrounding incoming rookies at the wide receiver position. Historically, we’ve seen very few produce elite fantasy numbers right off the bat. In fact, over the past decade, we’ve only seen 13 rookie receivers finish as top-24 fantasy assets — and […]
ADP Report – Fanball June Update
Last week, we took a look at DRAFT ADP to find risers and fallers over the past month. These leagues vary in size, but the biggest distinguishing factor is it’s half-PPR scoring format. This week we’re going to dive into the popular Fanball site. Fanball drafts offer a different composition with them being 20 rounds […]
Year 3 Breakout Fantasy Football Candidates
The 2017 NFL Draft was a terrific one for fantasy football. There are already multiple players inside the top-five at their respective positions among Patrick Mahomes, Deshaun Watson, Christian McCaffrey, Alvin Kamara, JuJu Smith-Schuster, George Kittle, O.J. Howard, and Evan Engram. Joe Mixon, Dalvin Cook, James Conner, Chris Godwin, and David Njoku have also found […]
2018 Fantasy Football Scoring Dependency
I’ve been working on building my fantasy projections for the 2019 season. It’s a fruitful, yet arduous exercise going team by team, position by position, and breaking down market shares, touchdown rates, catch percentage, etc. One of the most beneficial things I take away from doing this exercise every year is seeing how a team […]
Friday Fantasy Focus – Rashaad Penny
Welcome back for another installment of the #FridayFantasyFocus! Last week’s segment on Calvin Ridley turned me into not only a believer of Ridley for this year, but also someone that’s now trying to buy Ridley long term before he posts a follow up top-24 fantasy season. That’s essentially the goal of this series. To try […]
How Penalties Impacted the 2018 NFL Season
When the typical NFL fan sits down to watch an NFL game, they want to see high scoring games, fast pace with few interruptions, and even fewer penalties. It’s not an easy job for NFL officials. They go through years of training, studying, and calling games to then being tested with millions of eyes on […]
7 Dynasty Stashes to Acquire Now
I love looking for dynasty stashes. In a year-round activity like dynasty fantasy football, the enthusiasm for the league has its peaks and valleys — particularly during the offseason. There’s a lull immediately after the Super Bowl, but the start of free agency usually sees an uptick in activity. The NFL Draft is the major […]
2018 Tight End Review – Routes Run and Slot Rates
There’s nothing wrong with a tight end that plays 80% of his team’s offensive snaps. In fact, the more snaps the better. The more opportunities for a player to get on the field, the more opportunities he has to gain fantasy points, right? Not exactly. Not all snaps are created equal. While it’s great that […]
Futures Bets – NFC Win Totals to Pursue
Win totals are always a tricky future bet to pursue. It only takes a few key injuries before a team’s season could fall apart. That being said, there’s still plenty of money to be made based on the information we have at hand. Between now and the start of the season there aren’t many things […]
