Tight Ends to Avoid in 2024 Fantasy Football Redraft Leagues
This may be the year when tight ends are finally cool again. The position seems deeper than it's been in years, which is especially true at the top of the position where there are four to six players fantasy managers can argue for being the TE1 this season. We haven't had that kind of upper-tier […]
Undervalued PPR Targets for Fantasy Football Drafts: Alvin Kamara, Chris Godwin, Jake Ferguson, more
Most fantasy football managers either play in half-PPR or full-PPR leagues. That means drafting running backs, wide receivers, or tight ends who will catch a lot of passes is big. If you play in a PPR league and the tight end you draft catches 100 passes, that is an extra 100 points for your fantasy […]
Carlos Washington Jr. Rushes For 39 Yards Saturday
Atlanta Falcons running back Carlos Washington Jr. ran nine times in Saturday's game for 39 yards while receiving no work in the passing game in a 13-12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. After averaging less than 2.0 yards per carry last week on 16 attempts, Washington was much more efficient on the ground […]
Taylor Heinicke Throws For 114 Yards Saturday
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Taylor Heinicke threw for 114 yards and rushed twice for zero yards in a 13-12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens Saturday. It was an uneventful preseason game for the 31-year-old veteran, with no touchdown passes on 8-for-16 passing. Heinicke seems locked in as the QB3 on Atlanta's roster, but with the Falcons […]
Chris Blair Leads Falcons In Receiving On Saturday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Chris Blair finished with 91 receiving yards and four catches on five targets in a 13-12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. The former XFL star stepped things up in preseason Week 2, doubling his yards and targets from preseason Week 1. He remains low on the totem pole with […]
Younghoe Koo Misses Three Field Goals In Preseason Week 2
Atlanta Falcons Kicker Younghoe Koo had a rough time on the field Saturday morning, going 2-for-5 in field goal attempts in a 13-12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in preseason Week 2. Koo nailed the hard one through the uprights from 54 yards away but missed on a 40-yarder, 45-yarder, and 49-yarder before converting on […]
Jase McClellan Scores Last Minute Touchdown In Preseason Loss
Atlanta Falcons running back Jase McClellan rushed 11 times for 55 yards and scored a touchdown in a 13-12 preseason loss against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. After leading the team in rushing in preseason Week 1 with 35 yards, McClellan followed suit and led the team in rushing again this week. The lone touchdown […]
Raheem Morris Explains Decision To Sit Michael Penix Jr. For Saturday's Game
Raheem Morris explained the decision to sit Michael Penix Jr. for today's game by noting that Penix had already shown enough during the first preseason game against Miami. Given his strong performance there, the coaching staff felt it wasn't necessary for him to play today. Although it was surprising that Penix didn't start in Saturday's […]
Michael Penix Jr. Unlikely To Play On Saturday
Atlanta Falcons rookie first-round quarterback Michael Penix Jr. came onto the field in Baltimore on Saturday in street clothes and appears unlikely to suit up for the preseason contest against the Ravens. The Falcons are planning to hold veteran Kirk Cousins (Achilles) out for the entire preseason, too, so it looks like we'll see a […]
Kicker (K) Fantasy Football Rankings (2024) - Preseason Updates
August is here, and at RotoBaller HQ, we are constantly pumping out fantasy football content and rankings to help you crush your drafts. Banning kickers in fantasy leagues is becoming increasingly popular as more leagues are starting extra flexes instead of traditionally using kickers and team defenses. For the old-school leagues that still use kickers, […]
Three Buy-Lows, Sell-Highs for 2024 Fantasy Football Dynasty Leagues
There comes a time in every athlete's dynasty life cycle when they peak or valley in value. It's not always evident, though, as a player's perceived value can change instantly. I've touched on this before, but the trading landscape in dynasty has become somewhat of a "day trader's" market. It's not uncommon to have a […]
Updated Running Back Half-PPR Fantasy Football Rankings (2024)
The running back position has changed dramatically over the last few seasons, and these changes have shifted how ball carriers are approached in fantasy football. With most teams opting to use a committee of backs, the first round of fantasy drafts is now dominated by wide receivers. This means star workhorse running backs are available […]
DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze – 2024 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Outlooks
The Chicago Bears had one of the worst wide receiver corps in the NFL two years ago. Darnell Mooney was the only meaningful wide receiver on the team. However, Chicago has made massive improvements to its wide receiver corps since the end of the 2022 season. The Bears acquired DJ Moore last offseason in a […]
Three Fantasy Football Quarterback Sleepers and ADP Values (2024)
In fantasy football drafts, there are multiple tiers of quarterbacks to target. Every manager wants to draft the best ones (Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, Patrick Mahomes, and Lamar Jackson), but it will come at a significant price. All four of these signal-callers are going within the first four rounds of fantasy drafts. Then, the next […]
Quarterbacks to Avoid in 2024 Fantasy Football Redraft Leagues
In recent years, quarterbacks have become increasingly popular in fantasy football. This position has continued to climb up draft boards as they have continued to put up video game numbers. Like anything, as something becomes more popular, the prices go up. In this article, we'll be focusing on four quarterbacks whose prices are too high, […]
Every Fantasy Football Running Back With a Potential Workhorse Role in 2024
The term “workhorse running back” is nearly ancient history in today’s day and age. Committee backfields have become increasingly popular as the value of running backs as a whole has decreased. While deploying a committee is smart in real-life football to reduce wear and tear on the game’s most injury-prone position, they frustrate the life […]
Top 3 Impact Rookie TEs For 2024 Fantasy Football
It usually takes tight ends a couple of years to finally see production. T.J. Hockenson, Dallas Goedert, and Trey McBride are a few of the tight ends who failed to really make an immediate impact in their first year. Hockenson, Goedert, and McBride all totaled less than 375 receiving yards as rookies. Sometimes, there are […]
Fantasy Football Rookie Outlooks - Caleb Williams, Marvin Harrison Jr., Ladd McConkey, Jonathon Brooks, Brock Bowers
Every year, almost 300 athletes get the opportunity to fulfill their NFL dreams. It’s the culmination of their hard work and dedication, which started in Pop Warner leagues and continued in college football. Whether they were drafted or directly signed, what matters most is the chance to showcase their talent on the big stage. While […]
Three Overvalued Fantasy Football QBs - Potential Busts Based On Current ADP
Drafting the right quarterback can usually set you up for a successful fantasy football season. However, it is important to use average draft position (ADP) to identify valued and overvalued players at their positions. For example, last season, Jordan Love was extremely undervalued and was a league-winner down the stretch, while Justin Herbert was a […]
Fantasy Football Running Back Sleepers and Busts - Draft Targets, Avoids (2024)
It's becoming harder and harder to trust running backs in fantasy football. Very few have a workhorse role anymore, and most get hurt as well. Last season, first-round fantasy running backs like Austin Ekeler, Bijan Robinson, and Nick Chubb all fell short of their predraft ADP. Even second-round running backs like Tony Pollard and Josh […]

The start of fantasy drafts gets all the attention, as casual players want to hear about superstars […]
Early-Round Fantasy Football Avoids: Overvalued Draft Picks for Best Ball - Drake London, Zay Flowers, Josh Jacobs, more
Those in best ball drafts don't need their early-round picks to smash every week, but they better have a great chance at it while also providing the firepower to finish at the top of their position. We don't typically want consistent, median outcomes here. Some of you might exclusively play 50/50 best ball double-ups but […]
Five Fantasy Football Breakout Candidates For 2024
We are only a handful of weeks away from the start of the NFL season. That means it’s officially time to start preparing for your fantasy football draft. One of the best ways to get a jump on your league mates is by correctly identifying potential breakout candidates. Nailing a breakout pick can help lead […]
The Most Overvalued Fantasy Football Player from Every NFC Team (2024)
Fantasy football is all about value. If you pick a player with an RB19 predraft ADP and he finishes as the RB10, that is great value. On the other end of that, if you take a player as the RB7 and he finishes as the RB22, that will severely hurt your team during the year. […]
Jakeem Grant Placed On Injured Reserve
The Atlanta Falcons placed kick returner/wide receiver Jakeem Grant (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Thursday. Atlanta signed Grant to a one-year contract last Saturday, and he was expected to compete for a role as a return specialist. He injured his hamstring this week at practice, and it's unclear how much time he will miss. However, […]
Justin Simmons Signing With Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons are signing free-agent safety Justin Simmons to a one-year deal. It has been a wild 24 hours for the Falcons. They traded for frustrated pass-rusher Matthew Judon from the New England Patriots. Now, they make another upgrade on defense by adding two-time Pro Bowler Simmons into the mix. It'll be a one-year […]
