Overvalued Fantasy Football Tight Ends to Avoid: 5 Potential ADP Busts (2025)

It can be tough to draft the right tight end in fantasy football. I mean, if you can get Brock Bowers, great! But once you get past the first five or six players in ADP, there are pros and cons for everyone. Even a guy like Travis Kelce doesn't feel nearly as safe as he […]

6 Crowded Fantasy Football Backfields To Avoid: Potential Running Back Draft Busts (2025)

Acquiring a strong bellcow running back is one of the best ways to win your fantasy league. But in the modern NFL, workhorse RBs are few and far between. Most backfields are committees. Still, some teams, like the Detroit Lions, can produce two starting-caliber fantasy running backs. Many backfields are difficult to predict, however. While […]

The Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Age Cliff - Player Outlooks and Draft Values of 3 Veteran WRs (2025)

33. That is the number of wide receivers in NFL history who managed to record at least 200 PPR points in their age-32 season. It's quite a steep decline from the number of wideouts who achieved this feat at the age of 31 (54) and 30 (66). However, here's an interesting observation: out of the […]

Overvalued Fantasy Football Quarterbacks Avoids: 5 Potential ADP Bust Candidates (2025)

Quarterback might not be the most important position in fantasy football leagues, but you still don't want to waste a valuable draft pick on one that's overvalued. Opening the season with the wrong QB can put your roster in an immediate hole, and while it's possible to dig your way back out, isn't it easier […]

4 Sneaky Fantasy Football Busts to Avoid: One Pick for Each Position (2025)

Every fantasy football manager loves a sleeper or breakout story, but what about the busts? Busts are players who are drafted to be a huge contributor to your team but fall on their face. They are the bane of a fantasy manager’s existence. Busts can ruin what you thought was an incredible roster coming out […]

5 Fantasy Football Rookies To Target In Dynasty, Avoid in 2025 Redraft Leagues

This is a tricky process because we typically want to build our redraft teams like dynasty ones. After all, rookies and young players impact fantasy squads. One way to filter through which players to examine involves looking at the differences between the Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC) Average Draft Position (ADP) in redraft and one-quarterback […]

5 NFL Rookies To Avoid Drafting for 2025 Fantasy Football (Premium Content)

Rookies play a crucial role in fantasy football. In dynasty leagues, they are the draft. In redraft leagues, they can be season-defining selections—whether as late-round gems or key waiver wire additions. Despite the abundance of content available, I still believe the fantasy football market tends to undervalue rookies in redraft formats. Many drafters are hesitant […]

Aging Fantasy Football Players: Should You Draft Aaron Rodgers, Adam Thielen, Travis Kelce, and more?

When it comes to fantasy football content in July, it's rare to find a topic that hasn't been covered by multiple analysts in the industry. But here at RotoBaller, we truly enjoy analyzing angles that you can't find from just any talking head on a sports blog or radio show. For the second year in […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football Buys and Sells: Third-Year Running Backs

The running back position is one of the difficult ones to navigate in dynasty leagues because things change so quickly. It was at this time one year ago that Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White was considered a top dynasty asset. He just finished as the RB4 in PPR formats and still had a […]

6 Fantasy Football Sleepers, Busts: Undervalued/Overvalued NFC East Players

Since 2021, the NFC East has sent at least two teams to the playoffs every season, and this past season was no exception. Actually, it might have been the peak of the NFC East, as the Commanders made the Conference Championship Game and the Eagles won the Super Bowl in dominant fashion. This division is […]

With the 2025 NFL season around the corner, it's a great time to prep for fantasy football drafts.

Aging Alpha Wide Receivers: Fantasy Football Outlooks for Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams, Mike Evans, Calvin Ridley (2025)

Wide receivers are key in fantasy football, and one of the most surefire ways to build a title contender is to pick the right ones early in your draft. Of course, in Round 1, this is a fairly easy task. Superstars at the position like Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and Amon-Ra St. Brown are almost […]

The RB Dead Zone In Fantasy Football: What Is It And Do You Need To Avoid It?

The running back dead zone examines players going in the early to middle rounds at the position. We'll use Rounds 4 through 8 as arbitrary markers for running backs going in Fantasy Football Players Championship (FFPC) leagues. However, these running backs have been pushed up the draft board, and they might be riskier than anticipated. The […]

Analyzing Elusiveness to Find Fantasy Football Running Back Sleepers and Busts in 2025

Elusiveness is one of the most underrated and most crucial skills a running back can have in the NFL. Gone are the days when big power backs were all every NFL team wanted. Constantly crashing into defenders at high speed is a great way to shorten a career. Additionally, there's more than one way to […]

The 2025 fantasy football season is near, but dynasty managers and enthusiasts know the action has never stopped. One of, if not the best, aspects of playing in dynasty leagues is buying and selling players to and from your league mates' teams. Knowing when to sell a player high (or low) is key to cashing […]

Last Year's Fantasy Football Breakouts to Avoid in 2025: 4 Regression Candidates and Draft Fades

It seems that many fantasy managers simply expect players who have any kind of breakout season to continue playing very well until they reach the age of 32 or older. But that isn't always the case. Instead, players often have very inconsistent production throughout their careers. Sometimes, one-hit wonders do happen. It's not uncommon. Ignoring […]

The 2025 fantasy football season is fast approaching. Experienced managers know that there is a significant amount of work ahead to adequately prepare their drafts.

6 NFC South Fantasy Football Draft Targets or Avoids: Undervalued/Overvalued Players

The NFC South used to be one of the most competitive divisions in football, but it has developed a reputation as a bad division in recent seasons. The Buccaneers have won the division every season since 2021, but have failed to make the NFC Championship Game in these four seasons, so they could hardly be […]

5 Quarterback ADP Busts for Fantasy Football: Overvalued QBs to Fade

While we talk about how important running backs are, how vital it is to have multiple elite wide receivers, and how increasingly necessary it is to pinpoint top-end tight end production in fantasy, the quarterback has become a bit of an afterthought. It’s hard to say that when we’ve gotten so much bankable production at […]

Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Draft Busts: Overvalued WR2s to Avoid in 2025

It's one of the most common talking points in sports media: Who do you go to when you need a big play? On the football field, it's the top wide receiver, and those are the guys fantasy managers love to target early in drafts. But there's a handful of No. 2 receivers (Tee Higgins, Davante […]

Evaluating Ambiguous Fantasy Football Backfields: Bears, Cowboys, Jaguars, Patriots

With drafters getting smarter every year, trend-breaking strategies that felt like well-kept, league-winning secrets just a few short years ago can now seem commonplace. At the same time, it's important to always be ready to zag as soon as the rest of your league starts zigging -- or zig once more as zagging becomes the […]

Fantasy Football Running Back ADP Busts: 5 Expensive Running Backs to Fade in 2025

While every manager loves discussing which players to target in their fantasy football draft, they must also take some time and have a much less fun conversation.

NFC West Fantasy Football Draft Targets and Avoids: 5 Sleepers or Busts for 2025

The Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers have dominated the NFC West in recent seasons. In fact, both teams have won seven of the last eight division titles.
