Don't Count Out These Quarterback Sleepers
It's time to dig deep. In fact, it's time to dig deeper. Everybody knows who is a top-tier fantasy asset. Everybody has a clear picture of who to target in the middle rounds of their drafts.

Yardage Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver
While touchdowns are the most coveted play outcome for wide receivers in fantasy football, total receiving yards must be taken into serious consideration when deciding who to draft for the position. It is true that receivers have to work harder to rack up yards, and that they don't have an overly great value at only […]
Touchdown Regression Candidates: Quarterback
The league average touchdown percentage for NFL quarterbacks was 4.5 percent last year. Every year since 2009, the number's been somewhere between 4.2 and 4.6 aside from a one-year jump to 4.8 in 2018. That's not to say some individual quarterbacks don't exceed that number every year. Plenty do. 12 NFL quarterbacks had a touchdown […]
Packers Sign Jordan Love To Fully Guaranteed Deal
The Green Bay Packers signed first-round quarterback Jordan Love on Wednesday to a fully guaranteed four-year, $12.383 million deal, according to sources. Love will receive a $6.566 million signing bonus. It's the first time that the No. 26 pick in the draft has received a fully guaranteed deal under the current rookie contract system. The […]
Target Regression Candidates - Wide Receiver
I don't know how many times I've written this during the past few weeks, but here we go again: no matter how good a pass-catcher is, if he's not targeted often he will have no way to rack up fantasy points. With opportunities come chances to score points. Without them, catches are literally out of […]
Packers Sign Second-Rounder A.J. Dillon
Green Bay Packers rookie running back A.J. Dillon announced on his Twitter account on Wednesday that he has signed his rookie deal with the team.

The Patriots addition of Cam Newton on a team-friendly, one-year contract has the potential to change the scope of the AFC East, where New England now appears to have a real opportunity to […]
Fooled Me Once... Sophomore Tight Ends Set to Bust Again
As part of our "Fooled Me Once, Not Again" series, RotoBaller is looking at second-year players who struggled as rookies and aren't likely to pull themselves out of those struggles in 2020. Tight end is the position that seems to take the longest when it comes to NFL development. Rookie tight ends rarely come out […]

Drafting League-Winners In Rounds 1-8
The term "league winner" is one that is too often thrown around in fantasy football. Often it is used without even being defined. To me, a league winner can be one of two things: a player that is highly drafted but is still so much better than the rest of the field. Think of Christian […]
Aaron Jones Will Work Harder With A.J. Dillon Around
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones, who had a career year in 2019, thinks rookie running back A.J. Dillon's arrival will push him to work even harder entering the 2020 season. The Packers drafted Dillon 62nd overall in the second round back in April. Jones is also entering the last year of his deal, […]
Backfield Committees to Avoid in 2020?
In fantasy football, volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a great running back in an RBBC backfield and his volume--and thus his fantasy outcome--will drop without question. The […]
IDP One-Man Mock With Multiple Personalities
For those of you in fantasy football IDP leagues (Individual Defensive Player), it can be hard to find content that helps you decide when you should draft defenders in your drafts, and when you should expect others to select them. To help you through this process, we are going to conduct a one-man mock with IDP players […]
Davante Adams On Track To Be A Packers Great
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams currently ranks 13th in team history in receiving yards, and with another 1,386-yard season like he had in 2018, he would shoot into the top 10. He also ranks eighth in Packers history with 431 receptions and is 10th in touchdown catches with 44. Despite missing four games […]
One-Man Backfields to Chase in 2020
We're talking about fantasy football here, and in fantasy, volume is the key to rostering and fielding a winning team. While everything boils down to that concept, seeking volume calls for looking deeper than just the name and reputation of players. Put a great running back in an RBBC backfield and his volume--and thus his […]
Old Faces, New Places: Free Agent Risers
There is no way to describe the average NFL front office. Each franchise has its own set of rules, follows different parameters when evaluating players, and builds its roster in a very particular way. Even with a clear mindset, an organization's principles might be tweaked in order to accommodate players into the salary cap, for […]
Dynasty Market Watch: NFC North
The NFC North has been predominately known as the defensive division in the conference. But in recent seasons, we have seen the less great play from the defenses which has opened the door to increased opportunities for fantasy scoring. In 2019, those offenses took a step back, whether it be due to injuries (Minnesota Vikings/Detroit […]

This season I will be implementing a new fantasy football strategy. If you have been keeping up with this series, you know that by now! But for those who haven’t, I can give you a quick recap! My strategy is to build a safe base in the early rounds and then target pure upside players. […]
Fantasy Outlook in a Sentence: NFC Conference

I have been writing fantasy football columns from different perspectives for the upcoming year for quite some time now. Do you know one thing I […]

It's such a relief to have one of […]
RB Handcuffs to Target: NFC Edition
Imagine the feeling of using your early start-up draft pick on a bell-cow running back. He is a lock to get a majority of your team’s carries. He is going to be a major factor in the receiving game. Heck, he may just mess around and lead the league in rushing touchdowns because he is […]
Dynasty Price Check: Antonio Brown
On June 12, 2020, seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Antonio Brown plead no contest to three different criminal charges. With no outstanding legal charges against the free-agent wide receiver, it may clear the way for teams to begin looking at signing him. So what kind of value does he hold in dynasty leagues? *deep breath* […]
