Neil Dutton and I have been going division by division to find players that RotoViz rankers are higher on than FFPC drafters. The previous two articles are here:
- 3 Players RotoViz Rankers Are Higher on Than FFPC Drafters: AFC East
- 3 Players RotoViz Rankers Are Higher on Than FFPC Drafters: NFC East
Today we turn our attention to the NFC South. Here are three players that RotoViz rankers think FFPC drafters should be taking earlier.
ADP Data for period June 22 – July 5
Ito Smith, RB, ATL
The Atlanta Falcons signed Todd Gurley this offseason after cutting ties with longtime Falcon Devonta Freeman. Make no mistake about it: the starting running back job in Atlanta is Gurley’s to lose, but that hasn’t stopped the RotoViz rankers from being higher than FFPC consensus on other members of Atlanta’s backfield.
Running back Brian Hill is going as the RB96 in FFPC leagues, while the RotoViz team has him as the RB68. However, this article will focus on Ito Smith, the higher-ranked of the two backs.
