Julian Edelman, Brandin Cooks, and Their Cheaper Alternatives

  The ADP Arbitrage App is one of my favorite tools at RotoViz. I like to use it for its intended purpose – finding similar players at a lower cost – but I also like to use it to challenge my thinking about particular players. Here’s another look at some cheap alternatives to higher-priced players. As with the earlier post, the idea isn’t necessarily that you’d…...

Money for Nothing and Your Wide Receivers for Free

  I’m a cheap bastard I love a bargain as much as the next guy. That’s why the ADP Arbitrage App is one of my favorite tools at RotoViz. I like to use it for its intended purpose – finding similar players at a lower cost – but I also like to use it to challenge my thinking about particular players. The App lets you…...

5 Deep Sleeper Rookies for 2015

There’s no guarantee these players will make final rosters, let alone have a fantasy impact. But it’s Spring, the season of dreams; who doesn’t love a good deep sleeper dynasty prospect? These five players have a reasonable chance of making their team, and a good enough history of production to suggest they can produce if they get a chance. Keep these guys in mind for…...

Targeting Tre Mason, Trade Winners, and Tight Ends

Tre Mason His value will rightfully plummet with the Rams’ selection of Todd Gurley, but I think there’s a case for trying to acquire him cheaply. Still recovering from an ACL injury, Gurley is unlikely to play in the first month of the season. Once he’s cleared to play, he’ll still have to demonstrate his ability to execute the playbook and handle pass protection (remember, pass…...

The Rundown: Brandon Marshall, Greg Jennings, ADP Arbitrage, and More

    Brandon Marshall, LB  Marshall is recovering from Lisfranc surgery. This is a big deal for IDP players. A four to six month recovery period potentially keeps him out of training camp and jeopardizes the beginning of the season. Depending on severity and responsiveness to treatment, recovery outcomes are highly variable. Some, like Santonio Holmes, took a full year to return to action. Cedric Benson never played…...

Wide Receiver Size and Survivorship Bias

From 2007 to 2013, NFL wideouts posted 37 different 1,000 yard receiving seasons. Almost half, 16, came from “small” guys who weighed 200 pounds or less. Last season, five of the top 10 fantas y wide receivers weighed 200 pounds or less. Does that mean WR size doesn’t matter? Not at all. It does matter. A lot. Yesterday I read this article by Philly Mag’s Sheil Kapadia. In it,…...

Brian Parker, Mycole Pruitt, and the Rest of the 2015 Rookie Tight Ends

  We recently published our rookie tight end rankings, so I thought I’d briefly offer some thoughts about this year’s class. Last season I spent a lot of time analyzing TEs; this year, not so much. This year’s class lacks the star power of last year’s, and given the time it generally takes for TEs to master the pro game, there hasn’t been much urgency for…...
