Rookie Spotlight - Juwann Winfree
Denver Broncos GM John Elway certainly doesn’t have the best history of trading up in drafts to get his guy. Just take one look at the now infamous 26th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, where Elway and the Broncos traded up to take the Seahawks’ pick, only to use it on quarterback Paxton […]
Dynasty Stock Watch - Tight Ends
The New York Stock Exchange is not the only place where people care a lot about whose stock is skyrocketing and whose is plummeting. The fantasy values of many tight ends have gone up and gone down during this interesting offseason. While nobody’s fantasy stock plunged more than Rob Gronkowski’s after he retired following winning […]
Browns Expect Duke Johnson At Mandatory Minicamp
Cleveland Browns head coach Freddie Kitchens said he fully expects running back Duke Johnson to show up at mandatory minicamp next week. Johnson has asked the team to be traded after they signed Kareem Hunt and hasn't showed up to voluntary organized team activities. Second-year running back Dontrell Hilliard has stood out as depth in […]
Jarvis Landry Sitting Out Of Practices
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry has been watching organized team activities and will likely do the same next week at mandatory minicamp, according to head coach Freddie Kitchens. Landry is nursing a minor undisclosed injury that has kept him out of all OTAs, but Kitchens said Landry hasn't undergone surgery. The team is keeping […]
Dontrell Hilliard Making An Impression
Cleveland Browns running backs coach Stump Mitchell said that running back Dontrell Hilliard is making an impression in offseason workouts in the absence of Duke Johnson. Hilliard could be the bridge to suspended running back Kareem Hunt behind Nick Chubb if Johnson is traded. Hilliard was an undrafted rookie in 2018 and had zero carries […]
Odell Beckham Jr., Duke Johnson Absent Thursday
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and running back Duke Johnson are absent for organized team activities on Thursday. OBJ has been to one session, while Johnson hasn't been present at all. Johnson is disgruntled and wants to be traded, but the Browns continue to say that they value Johnson as a backup to […]

Tight End Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)
It used to be that we ignored the tight end position until the middle rounds of a draft. Now, it's not uncommon to see a name like Kelce in the first round and not bat an eyelash, while Ertz and Kittle are guaranteed to be taken within the top 30 picks. In best-ball leagues, you […]

Rookie Spotlight - Mecole Hardman
Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Mecole Hardman is, perhaps, the most difficult rookie receiver to value right now, because his immediate fantasy potential is almost entirely dependent on whether or not the NFL suspends Tyreek Hill and, if they do, on how long that suspension is. Hardman is an interesting prospect, a speedster who […]
When to Target QBs in Superflex Dynasty Leagues
Fantasy football has as many different variations and scoring formats as there are players in the NFL. The way to become a better player is to understand those formats and the required strategies to succeed. Recently, the Rotoballer NFL staff got together to conduct a mock draft for a dynasty startup with Superflex rules. You […]
Late-Round Rookie RBs to Target in Dynasty Drafts
The 2019 NFL Draft is over, and the preparation for your fantasy football league’s upcoming season should be starting now, not in late August. In standard year-to-year fantasy leagues or keeper leagues where you can only hold onto a minimal amount of players, you are not going to find many late-round rookie running backs on […]

Start of a Dynasty - Expert Mock Draft Review
I’ll be honest, playing re-draft leagues for years can give an avid fantasy footballer tunnel-vision. You tend to look for the immediate impact of a player. In Dynasty leagues, you have to have a different mindset (except for Frank Gore who’ll play for another 10 years with at least 200 touches each time). Just after […]
Baker Mayfield Madness - Top-Five Fantasy QB Already???
There has been so much buzz about the Cleveland Browns being the breakthrough team of 2019 this offseason. That is understandable, as the team won five of its final seven games and showed a lot of promise after a poor first half of the 2018 season. Adding Odell Beckham Jr. has only fueled more strong […]
Quarterback Best-Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis (May 2019)
Quarterback has to be approached differently in best-ball as opposed to re-draft leagues. Whereas in most competitive leagues, you can get away with drafting one quarterback and streaming throughout the year if necessary, you don't have that luxury in a draft-only format. Bye weeks, injuries, and flat-out bad play must be accounted for during the […]

Antonio Callaway Showing More Explosiveness
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway has been showing more explosiveness at organized team activities this week. He led the Browns in receiving touchdowns and finished third in yards in his rookie season in 2018, so there is plenty of upside remaining. He was a fourth-round pick in 2017 but missed the entire season. The […]

Rookie Spotlight - Josh Jacobs
After our recent RotoBaller rookie dynasty draft, organizer and lead editor Pierre Camus asked us if we could conceivably select one position to pick from, where would it be? My answer was easy, although it sounded amateurish at first: Give me the first pick. Not because of the pomp and circumstance surrounding it. I want […]

Rookie Running Backs Destined for a Committee
There has been some great rookie running back draft classes in recent years. This year wasn't one of those. While there was a number of players that were solid options later in the draft, there were only a couple that have the opportunity to be full-time starters in Year 1. These are not those guys. […]
