Last week, Charles Kleinheksel showed us tight end volatility projections, Ben Gretch gave us wide receivers, and Aaron Butler broke down the running backs. Jonathan Bales devised the volatility score methodology in the early RotoViz years. Those scores provide a quick picture of how risky — or reliable — a player’s fantasy output may be. The formula is: (High 2016 Projection – Low 2016 Projection)…...

Recently I wrote about work I’m doing to try to get closer to having an accurate way to age-adjust players once they’re in the NFL. This work is very much ongoing, and not definitive by any measure. However, I still like to write about it even if it’s a work in progress because the act of writing about it helps me to clarify further questions…...

The NFL combine has become its own entity over the past decade, and yesterday the NFL announced who they have invited to attend this year’s event…. Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership LevelsAlready a member? Log in here...

In an earlier piece I used some salary cap information to find a cheap dynasty trade target at the wide receiver position. I thought that in the lull between the Super Bowl and the NFL combine it might be helpful to continue to go through salary cap data and see if it tells us anything else about what to expect going forward. Today I’m going…...

A quick analysis of some recent fantasy football news. Jordan Matthews When I read recently that Riley Cooper had been released, I thought perhaps it might be a good sign for Jordan Matthews (or any other Eagles wide receiver). But I don’t think it is. First of all, Cooper only received 41 targets last year, so it’s not like there’s a ton of opportunity that’s been…...

Recently Scott Smith wrote an excellent buy low article on Michael Floyd, and he finished No. 2 in our staff ranks among players in our Buy Low series. I like Floyd as a player,[1]Although the hype has arguably always outstripped the results. and, as an Arizona Cardinals fan, I certainly hope he breaks through to stardom in 2016. As a fantasy player, I’m selling. Floyd…...

With the publication of the newest RotoViz Scouting Index, I’m here to update you on everything you need to know about the 2016 QB class. We’ve got updates on Carson Wentz, commentary on Jared Goff being labelled a system QB, and more. Here are the results of the most recent RSI: I said in the first edition of this piece that I would like for Wentz to move into third…...

The ever changing landscape of the NFL saw seven teams crown new head coaches following the end of the regular season. With all seven from offensive backgrounds, there will no doubt be a lot of changes on each of these teams. With this in mind, I take a look at the new coaches, and offer some thoughts on players who should significantly benefit. Next up: the…...

Below is a table with data courtesy of Spotrac that shows some of the top savings that can be had by cutting WRs. Hit is the player’s 2016 cap hit, dead is the amount of dead money the team will realize by cutting the player, save is the amount of salary cap savings from cutting the player.
