The 2020 draft class of RBs has been billed as a potentially historic group. And while it’s generally wise to temper expectations about rookie classes, it’s easy to fall in love with this class. Rotoworld’s Hayden Winks predicts seven RBs could be selected in the first two days of next year’s Draft. Thanks to recent work from Ryan Collingsworth, we know that the way in which…...

Welcome to the final installment of my NFL University series, Tight End U. We’ve already covered the true NFL University, WR U, and RB U so far. But now it’s on to tight ends. Tight ends get neglected sometimes in NFL and fantasy football analysis, but it’s one of the most difficult positions to play and consistently produce in the NFL. Over 500 tight ends…...

Opportunity is the most important factor to consider when analyzing fantasy football. Whether it’s at the NFL level or in college, the more pass attempts, carries, and targets that a player gets, the better. It’s far from an exact science. But last year’s opportunity reports highlighted the likes of Eno Benjamin, Jalen Reagor, Hakeem Butler, and Miles Sanders as targets in devy leagues set to…...

Welcome to the “QB U” edition of the NFL University series. If you’ve been following along we’ve already covered the true “NFL University” in Miami (FL), but many teams are closing in quick. The Ohio State University has shown to be “WR U” dating back to the late 1990s. And most recently we covered Miami’s dominance (again) as the true “RB U.” But of course…...

Welcome to the “RB U” edition of the NFL University series. So far we’ve found that Miami has long been the real “NFL University” but is losing ground quickly. Ohio State has proven to be the true “WR U” and doesn’t look that’s going to change for a long time. And now it’s time to tackle running backs. Just over 800 running backs have logged…...

Welcome to the “WR U” edition of the NFL University series. As we covered in the kickoff article to the series, Miami University or “The U” is aptly nicknamed. They’ve given the NFL more than 30,000 PPR fantasy football points since the year 2000. But what university should truly be given the coveted “WR U” title? That’s where this article comes in. Since the year…...

Every year there seems to be some argument as to what universities are “WR U,” “RB U,” or “Insert Position X Here U,” but is there really something worth paying attention to here? Do the same schools tend to produce top talent at certain positions year after year? And what would that mean for devy and dynasty fantasy football strategy? That’s the topic I’ll be…...

Acquiring devy assets is kind of like investing in the stock market. With time remaining in college, their value could drastically increase with a productive season or it could tank just as quickly. For rebuilding teams, this increases the importance of hitting on early-round picks. Additionally, with the volatility of these selections, finding a late-round gem can be incredibly valuable to teams. Whether the player…...

Identifying early breakouts at the wide receiver position is among the most important pieces of information available for devy owners. Prospects that produce at a high level at a young age are better bets to succeed in the NFL, period. But at the risk of telling you what you probably already know — that you should be targeting the likes of Rondale Moore, Jalen Reagor,…...

  Last week I took part in a devy mock draft hosted by Greg Brandt from over at Devy Watch. It was a 12-team, PPR scoring, non-Superflex draft with a player pool consisting of 2020, 2021, and 2022 eligible prospects. Two of my fellow RotoViz writers, Travis May and Matt Wispe, also took part. My goal here is to walk you through the draft, round…...

One of my favorite pre-draft articles from 2018 was Anthony Amico’s introduction to running back breakout age. We know how important breakout age is for wide receiver prospects. So it makes sense that age-adjusted production would hold similar merit for RBs. Amico defined breakout age as the age where a RB first crosses 130 adjusted all-purpose yards per game (AAPYPG). This metric is basically traditional…...
