Is Jalin Hyatt a Legit First-Round Talent and Future Dynasty Star? The Advanced Metrics Are Pretty Crazy

Jalin Hyatt is widely expected to be taken in the first round of the reality draft. The speed and explosiveness he displayed at the combine only solidifies his draft stock. Yet he routinely slips to the second round of dynasty rookie mock drafts. Are NFL GMs overvaluing Hyatt’s final season production and tested athleticism? Or are fantasy GMs undervaluing Hyatt’s on-field abilities? The Box Score…...

Is Derek Carr an Upgrade for the Saints’ Receivers? The Advanced Stats Reveal a Surprising Picture

The Saints recently agreed to terms with Derek Carr, signing him to a four-year contract worth up to $150 million. Carr is already 32 and is coming off arguably his worst statistical season since 2017. But does he represent an upgrade for the Saints? And is New Orleans a better situation for Carr? The RotoViz tools have a trove of advanced data to help us…...

4 Wide Receivers Who Boosted Their Stock at the Combine, and 2 Who Should Have Skipped It Altogether: 2023 Combine Winners and Losers

In many ways the NFL combine marks the unofficial start to the 2023 offseason. Although best balls drafts are in full swing, it’s not until the annual underwear olympics that we get new data on soon-to-be NFL players. In a lot of cases this new data just confirms what we already expected. But occasionally there are some surprises — both positive and negative. Those surprises…...

Cooper Kupp and David Johnson Were Once Small School Stars – 4 FCS Players to Watch in 2023

It’s rare for a player who didn’t go to a Power-Five school — let alone an FBS school — to make it big in the NFL. Yet occasionally, players from the FCS and lower divisions do hit in big ways. Christian Watson (North Dakota State) is the most recent example, but players like Cooper Kupp (Eastern Washington), David Johnson (Northern Iowa), Tarik Cohen (North Carolina…...

When Wide Receiver Isn’t an Option: How to Navigate the Middle Rounds of a Superflex Draft

With the 2022 season officially over, 2023 best ball season is now back in full force. The FFPC is running two “Never-Too-Early” Best Ball Tournaments. Shawn Siegele and I are currently taking part in a draft for the Superflex version. Superflex drafts add several strategic wrinkles. While standard 1-quarterback best ball is far from solved, there are a few dominant strategies that most players are…...

A Superflex Best Ball Tournament Is the Perfect Format for Contrarian Strategies, But How Crazy Can You Get?

With the 2022 season officially over, 2023 best ball season is now back in full force. Underdog’s Big Board Tournament includes upcoming 2023 rookies and pays out $200,000 to first place. Their Little Board follows the same basic structure but costs less to enter, has fewer entrants, and pays out $10,000 to first. If you’re new to Underdog and want to get in on the…...

In the 75th installment of The Wrong Read, Blair Andrews takes a deep dive into the metrics that best help us find Year 2 running back breakouts. Does efficiency make a difference?

Which Metrics Predict Year 2 Breakouts? – The Wrong Read, No. 74

Earlier this week I explored George Pickens’ chances for a Year 2 breakout. While he’s got a lot going in his favor, there are some red flags. But it does raise the question of which metrics actually matter for predicting Year 2 breakouts. Which red flags should we actually be concerned about? Which metrics are so important that they drown out any red flags? How…...

Drake London and the Future of the Atlanta Falcons’ Offense: 1 Big Thing from Week 13

Drake London led all players in target share in Week 13. His 12 looks accounted for 50% of the Falcons’ targets. Not only that, his 20 expected points accounted for half of the Falcons’ total receiving EP, and over 37% of the Falcons’ total non-passing EP (receiving plus rushing). It’s only London’s second game of the season with at least 20 EP. However, it’s the seventh time…...
