Keith Marshall ran a 4.31 forty yard dash at 219 pounds, giving him a very promising athletic profile. Can you imagine him running behind the Cowboys offensive line? Of course you can, which is why it would shake up dynasty rookie drafts if they select him. Play the Draft currently has Marshall ranked as the 280th prospect in this class.

As a bit of fair warning this post will mostly be the result of some musings I had as I was evaluating a dynasty roster where I own Rueben Randle. So that’s fair warning that I own Rueben Randle and thus might not be worth listening to. It’s also fair warning that when someone is trying to dig up positive evidence on the guys at…...

While working on the RotoViz Draft Guide[1]yes, really. Stay tuned. today, I noticed that we have written nothing about Auburn WR Ricardo Louis. I decided to dig into his profile and the conclusion I reached was, “why the f*** have we been ignoring Ricardo Louis?” He has some really intriguing data points!… Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership LevelsAlready...

One of my favorite things about the offseason is tracking how players’ value changes over time. In this article, I’m going to look at 7 rookies falling in dynasty drafts, based on the RotoViz pre-combine rookie mock and the pre-draft rookie mock….

Rookie drafts are exciting. One of the best ways to capitalize on that excitement is to trade your picks for less exciting but more promising players. Like say, Breshad Perriman. Perriman may be better than every wide receiver in this class and may be on the verge of a sophomore breakout….

Over the last few years, Matthew Freedman has written extensively about how running backs who carry a workhorse load in college tend to outperform expectations in the NFL. Today, with his blessing, I’m going to apply his methodology (or something close to it) and some of my own to examine the top workhorse running backs in the 2016 class….

Meanwhile Matthews has had an incredibly productive first two years in the league considering the fact that his quarterbacks include mostly players that would be sources of excuse-making for other wide receivers. I’m not one of the Jordan Matthews haters. I have…...

Wide receiver Devin Lucien started his career at UCLA where compiled not very many yards in a three season career before transferring to Arizona State. As a college graduate he was immediately available for the 2015 season and finished his career on a high note as a Sun Devil.

The arbitrage setting limits the comps to current year rookies. So all I do is…...

We’re getting closer and closer to the NFL Draft so I thought rather than write up our 20th Corey Coleman post I would take the time to highlight some really under the radar guys who still have a snowball’s chance in hell of being fantasy relevant at some point in their careers. These are guys who, due to draft position or holes in their prospect…...
