Marlon Davidson Heading To Atlanta

The Atlanta Falcons used the 47th overall pick in the second round on Auburn defensive lineman Marlon Davidson. Davidson played defensive end in college, but at 303 pounds he'll slide to defensive tackle in the NFL. Davidson is a powerful player who should immediately help a Falcons defensive unit that has struggled against the run. […]

Falcons Stay Put And Add A.J. Terrell

The Atlanta Falcons selected Clemson cornerback A.J. Terrell with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. Terrell had a 29-1 record as a starter at Clemson and had some really strong games in college against the best competition in big games. He has length and recovery speed, but he could […]

RotoBaller Staff Mock NFL Draft - Team-by-Team Projections

Now that the RotoBaller staff has finished their three-round mock draft, it's time to take a look at which team addressed the majority of its biggest needs. We asked each drafter to comment on the relative success of the three-round haul. As a reminder, we decided to prevent any trades and there is a short rationale […]

2020 NFL Mock Draft 2.0

With the NFL Draft just one week away, smokescreen season is upon us. Most mock drafters agree on the top three picks, but the draft gets fascinating at pick No. 4.  The Giants could trade the pick to a team looking for a quarterback or sit tight and take the best offensive lineman or defensive […]

Early 2020 Sleepers: Wide Receiver

The rookie class is great for receivers in 2020. At least this is what we have been told. Until we can see them in action, I will hold judgment. It was only a few years ago when the same was said for Corey Coleman, Laquon Treadwell and Josh Doctson. So, color me skeptical until it […]

Falcons Trying To Move Up For Chase Young?

Falcons Could Trade Up For Offensive Tackle

The Atlanta Falcons have done the groundwork and have talked to several teams inside the top 10 picks in the first round about trading up on Thursday night. Most everyone assumes that Atlanta would be moving up to select a cornerback in the top 10, but the Falcons have also done video interviews with multiple […]

Gronk and Brady Reunited in Tampa Bay

Just two days before the 2020 NFL Draft was set to get underway, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stole the headlines and made a splash by trading for former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. He insisted that he wouldn't play for any quarterback other than Tom Brady, so the move to Tampa fulfilled his wish. When […]

2020 NFL Early-Draft Exploits: VOA vs. ADP for Quarterbacks

If you're a loyal RotoBaller reader, you know we strive to give you the edge no matter the fantasy sport you happen to be playing.

Falcons Talking To Teams Inside Top 10

The Atlanta Falcons continue to be the team to watch on Thursday night when it comes to moving up in the first round of the draft. They have talked with teams well inside the top 10 picks and look to be ready to make a big jump up from No. 16 via a trade. Cornerback […]

Falcons Want To Trade Up For Cornerback

Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff wants to trade up for one of the top two cornerbacks in this year's draft. It's the worst-kept secret in draft rooms around the league this year. Florida's C.J. Henderson and Ohio State's Jeff Okudah are the top two corners this year, and the Falcons may just move up […]

32 for 32: NFL Draft Predictions for the Rams

It was a disappointing year for the Rams as we saw regression across the board from the offense. Jared Goff looked lost at times and the running game behind Todd Gurley II struggled to gain traction. Now with key players gone, can the offense rebound to what we were once used to? Will the NFL […]

Are Rookie Receivers Trustworthy in Redraft Leagues?

When I started planning this article, it reminded me of a draft I had last year in a very deep league. It was a re-draft league and a guy drafted Emanuel Hall, a Missouri receiver with 4.39 speed, signed to the Bucs a few days prior. Sure, it was a deep league, the Bucs' offense […]

Brian Hill Signs Tender Offer

Atlanta Falcons restricted free-agent running back Brian Hill signed his original-round tender on Saturday. Hill will make $2.144 million in 2020, but he's pushed further down the depth chart with Todd Gurley now in town. The former fifth-round pick in 2017 had 78 rushing attempts for 323 yards (4.1 yards per carry) and two touchdowns, […]

Breakouts happen every season for fantasy football. Sometimes they are expected and other times they are complete surprises.

Looking For Market Inefficiencies: TE Return On Investment

No matter which type of person you are. No matter which type of fantasy owner profile you fit into. No matter what, you're looking for market inefficiencies.

Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis

Just a year ago, we were bemoaning how boring the tight end position was in fantasy football. There was Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, George Kittle and a bunch of scrubs.
