You Can Still Trust Mo-Alie Cox: The Tight End Report – Week 5
Neil Dutton
October 6, 2020
We are a quarter of the way through the season. I did not think we’d get here, I admit. But as readers of my work for a number of years will tell you, I’ve been wrong before. In the words and images below you will find all the information you could ever want about the tight end position from Week 4, plus helpful information moving…...
It’s Time for Dalton Schultz to Not Be Nice: The Tight End Report – Week 4
Neil Dutton
September 29, 2020
Week 3 of the NFL season had something of the Obi-Wan Kenobi about it. I don’t mean it was full of legendary deeds from one of the galaxy’s greatest heroes. I mean that among the leading tight ends there were a few names that we haven’t heard in a long time. A long time. Jimmy Graham was the TE1. There was a TE3 finish for…...
The Time Has Finally Come for Mo Alie-Cox: The Tight End Report – Week 3
Neil Dutton
September 22, 2020
The tight end position seemed to escape the serious injury bug that attacked the NFL in Week 2. Some players were unable to stay healthy, but no players with the star power of the running backs lost were affected. This is something of a relief to all, players and fans alike. The good news for me was that finally people may have woken up to…...

2020 Week 1 Tight End Streamers
Neil Dutton
September 7, 2020
There were times when many doubted we would ever get here. But finally, after the most topsy-turvy offseason in NFL history, Week 1 is upon us. This means, of course, to paraphrase the late, great Ricardo Montalban, we have entered Fantasy Island. While most drafts have only been completed recently, this doesn’t necessarily mean that fantasy managers are ecstatic with the players on their teams…....
Late-Round TE Pairs to Draft in 2020
Neil Dutton
September 1, 2020
Many of the smartest people have been advocating a similar approach regarding tight ends in fantasy drafts ahead of the 2020 NFL season. There is a “Big Four” at the top of the position, with Travis Kelce, George Kittle, Mark Andrews, and Zach Ertz the acknowledged leaders. Given their track records and expected opportunities, these are the safest options to take at fantasy football’s most…...
JuJu Smith-Schuster to finish as the WR1 and Other Bold Predictions for 2020
Neil Dutton
August 25, 2020
The season is almost here. The time for speculation is almost over. But not quite. With actual live games starting in just a few weeks, there is still time for hot takes to emerge ahead of the 2020 NFL season. With this in mind, the writers at RotoViz got their thinking caps on to come up with a bold, yet not outlandish, prediction for the…...

July 31, 2020
Welcome to the second part in our series looking at players who could be absolute superstars in 2020 … if only the player(s) ahead of them on the depth chart would just get out of the way. In the previous edition of The Guy Behind the Guy, we looked at backup running backs that our writers are particularly high on, and would rally behind if…...
The Guy Behind The Guy: RotoViz’s Favorite Backup RBs In 2020
Neil Dutton
July 30, 2020
Don’t call it a comeback! Well actually, as this is a sequel to a series that ran prior to the 2019 NFL season, I suppose you should call it a comeback. Anyway, call it what you want but this piece will focus not on the superstars of the NFL, but rather their understudies. Players that our writers believe could be fantasy relevant producers in the coming…...

I’m Fading Adam Thielen in 2020 and Here’s Why
Neil Dutton
June 30, 2020
There are several factors in play that could lead you towards the opinion that Adam Thielen is ready for a bounceback campaign in 2020. However, there are just as many that should lead you to think the exact opposite. It is these negative factors that you must keep in mind in drafts when you start thinking about adding the Minnesota Vikings man. Bouncebackability? Predicting bounceback…...
3 Players RotoViz Rankers Are Higher on Than FFPC Drafters
Neil Dutton
June 24, 2020
There is still a fair amount of uncertainty as to whether we will actually get an NFL season in 2020. However, until higher powers tell us otherwise, the fantasy football world continues to assume that some action will take place on the gridirons of America this fall and winter. With this in mind, the folks over at the FFPC are still churning out the fantasy…...
Don’t Delay, Acquire David Njoku in Dynasty Today
Neil Dutton
June 15, 2020
There is no position in the NFL with a steeper learning curve than that of tight end. Players at that position come into the league and are expected to not only learn how to run NFL routes but also block NFL defenders. Is there little wonder then that rookie stars at this position are so hard to find? Some people still make the mistake of…...
5 Notable Fallers in High Stakes Leagues Since the NFL Draft
Neil Dutton
May 22, 2020
It seems like 100 years or more since the 2020 NFL Draft. But I assure you, it was only last month. Since the last name was called at the event, nearly 150 high stakes drafts have taken place over at the FFPC. I thought it would be interesting to take a look at five players who have experienced something of a drop in popularity since…...
Don’t Forget About Chris Herndon in 2020
Neil Dutton
May 20, 2020
The New York Jets are eagerly looking forward to what they can get out of tight end Chris Herndon in 2020. According to Connor Hughes of The Athletic, “to say the Jets can’t wait to get (him) back in their lineup is a vast understatement.” Hughes doubled down on this sentiment on Tuesday, remarking that they “had sky-high expectations” for him in 2019. But suspension…...
Fanball ADP Risers: 3 NFL Teams Make Big Changes
Neil Dutton
April 20, 2020
We previously looked at the risers and fallers in the world of high stakes best ball. Now let’s turn our attention to those who get their kicks over at Fanball. The platform is different, and so are the players who have become more popular in recent weeks. Here are six Fanball ADP risers on three different teams who have seen their stock rise over the…...
Going Down: ADP Fallers in High Stakes Leagues
Neil Dutton
April 13, 2020
Earlier this week, I looked at five players who were experiencing a bump in popularity over at the FFPC. In the interest of balance, it’s only fair that we look at the other side of the coin. With that in mind, here are five situations where high stakes fantasy players have started to cool. Free agency did not exactly make these players winners, not in…...
Moving On Up: Recent ADP Risers in High Stakes Leagues
Neil Dutton
April 6, 2020
At the time of writing, the NFL Draft is still scheduled to take place on time. At the time of writing, we should be getting a 2020 NFL season. Obviously a lot can change between now (whenever you are reading this) and then, but let us proceed with the assumption that there will be football in 2020. If this is the case, then there will…...
