NOTE: Our tools will be updated each week as soon as data from our stats provider is available. Generally, data from Sunday’s games will be available early Tuesday afternoon. For an immediate look at the games from the previous weekend, please check out our Monday Review tool which includes a collection of preliminary stats.
Shawn Siegele looks at the scenarios necessary for elite wide receivers to finish as the overall fantasy WR1 in 2020. In working on other research, I found myself wondering how many WRs had a scenario where they could realistically finish as the WR1 . . . even if it was a pretty outside shot. For example, I agree with Neil Dutton’s take that Adam Thielen…...
Shawn Siegele deploys the RotoViz Screener to provide all the key stats on fourth-year breakouts at the wide receiver position. The 2017 WR class has given us stars like JuJu Smith-Schuster, Chris Godwin, Kenny Golladay, and Cooper Kupp. That’s not a bad quartet, especially when you consider that the first five receivers selected in that draft are yet to record a 200-point season. How much hope should…...
Austin Ekeler may be my favorite player in the NFL, or at least he might be my second favorite after his higher priced and higher scoring doppelganger. In 2020, Ekeler and Christian McCaffrey generated win rates of 21% and 31% respectively. They did so with the type of freakish athleticism at smaller sizes that offers make-you-miss ability with transcendent receiving skills. Given the tenuous nature…...
Shawn Siegele presents his Dynasty Top 200 with an in-depth look at his superflex tiers. We’ve been cranking out the redraft and best ball content this month, but with the second wave of dynasty startups kicking off with training camps, it’s time for another look at my dynasty tiers. Our dynasty rankings now include both regular and Superflex formats. With TE Premium also gaining in…...
David Montgomery slogged to a frustrating RB24 finish on 242 carries as a rookie. He averaged only 3.7 yards per attempt and ranked No. 152 in fantasy points over expectation. Only Frank Gore and Le’Veon Bell generated more negative FPOE in the run game. Montgomery still offers intriguing potential entering his second year. He ranked No. 12 in opportunities a season ago, and his current…...
Shawn Siegele takes you through his FFPC best ball draft and uses the Roster Construction Explorer to find moves that will help you crush your league. Jack Miller ran a staff mock recently, and he’s going to have a flurry of great content for you. If you’ve been reading Jack this summer, you know that won’t be one to miss. Until then, I wanted to…...
The wide receiver class of 2020 is very good and very deep. Devy owners have been looking forward to their arrival, while dynasty owners are loading up in rookie drafts. In the Black Crown startup, I prioritized rookie picks, and then I selected six WRs during the rookie draft. Still, this class has an almost impossible task if they want to match the 2014 group…....
Allen Robinson has been a personal favorite since we pushed dynasty owners to grab him during the loaded 2014 receiver draft. He broke out with a massive 304-point performance in Year 2 and looked like a permanent member of the WR firmament. Unfortunately, quarterback play and injuries derailed his career. He didn’t post another top-24 season until 2019. Robinson’s 254-point campaign returned him to WR1…...
DeVante Parker broke out with 246 points in 2019. The No. 14 overall pick from 2015 crested the 200-point threshold for the first time in his fifth season. Parker followed an unusual path. Over the last 20 years, this was the first time a former first-round pick had broken out in Year 5. It was also the first time in several years that a fifth-round…...
After five years in the Buffalo desert, Robert Woods emerged when he joined the Rams in 2017. Three seasons with finishes between WR18 and WR14 (per game) followed. Woods has parlayed that into a WR18 ADP in 2020, a fair price for a player with his profile. But what if you don’t want to pay a fair price? If you’re looking to get this production…...
How do you build a juggernaut? How do you craft a team with more than just the occasional value player? Who should you draft to withstand the vagaries of the season and emerge better than ever? These are the questions we’re obsessed with at RotoViz, and we try to answer them from a variety of perspectives. One angle is to create upside from uncertainty. Zero…...
Shawn Siegele breaks down the most recent developments in his FFPC Superflex Dynasty League startup. He profiles the blockbuster trades, examines the best picks, and explains why owners are ignoring the RB-heavy ADP of the format. Curtis Patrick and I are drafting in a loaded Pros vs Joes event that includes long-time friend Patrick Kerrane and many other talented owners. In 5 Takeaways from an…...
Shawn Siegele discusses a trio of key tactical insights from the Roster Construction Explorer that will help you dominate FFPC best ball leagues. For those who listened to Mike Beers on our RotoViz Overtime best ball podcasts, you know a few tricks of the trade in FFPC leagues. Mike’s tools like the FFPC Command Center and the FFPC Dashboard provide all of the rankings and…...
Curtis Patrick and Shawn Siegele draft in the FFPC Pros vs. Joes dynasty event. Shawn analyzes the key trends from their draft and breaks down the Team RotoViz selections. It’s always a lot of fun to participate in a startup dynasty draft with a partner, and it’s even better when that draft is an FFPC Pros versus Joes event. Owners in this league are engaged…....
Those who listened to Mike Beers on the Best Ball episodes of RotoViz Overtime knew something exciting was coming. It’s here, and it’s spectacular. Last Friday, Mike unveiled the Best Ball Win Rates Explorer and the features are insane. You can look at all of the individual player win rates for the last five years, but you can also do something much cooler. Instead of simply…...
In the Wide Receiver Lesson of the 2020 Best Ball Workshop, Shawn Siegele discusses the WRs tactics that make the difference between winning and losing. It’s not hyperbole to say WR is the key to generating elite top-six percentages. The numbers will shock you. The Best Ball Workshop has been a blast to write again this season, and it’s a testament to the fantastic intel…...
Running back-heavy constructions are all the rage in 2020. This is despite research that repeatedly shows the flaws in this approach. One persistent narrative may be the culprit: wide receiver is deep. This is certainly not the case from an evidence-based perspective. The Win the Flex tool shows you how many points have been scored relative to ADP by the different positions. After the megastar…...
In an unusual offseason that’s lacked on-field workouts, we haven’t had the normal player buzz. We’re still seeing plenty of movement. The Risers/Fallers tab in the FFPC Dashboard helps locate the biggest ADP movers. With a little over a month until the proposed beginning of camp, you still have plenty of time to balance your portfolio at a profit . . . if you purchase…...
Shawn Siegele breaks down the 10 most undervalued redraft options and provides the top breakouts, bouncebacks, and Zero RB candidates for 2020. Writing the 10 Most Undervalued Players in Dynasty Startups was a blast. When I’m reading my favorite writers, I want to know which guys they’re targeting. It’s why Curtis Patrick’s Must-Draft RBs was so much fun. It’s why Matt Wispe’s 8 Late-Round Picks…...
The MFL10 of Death is annually one of my favorite leagues. Drafting against these experts is an absolute blast, and I want to thank Pat Thorman for putting it together and donating the proceeds to charity. Each season I like to break down all 20 rounds to get a feel for how my compatriots are playing. It goes without saying that I hold all of…...
