Marvin Harrison Jr. entered this weekend as the dynasty rookie WR1 by popular opinion and exited the weekend in the same state. Harrison is the son of a Hall of Famer, a former 4-Star recruit out of the vaunted St. Joseph’s prep in North Philadelphia, and a bona fide collegiate stud with two straight seasons of over 1,200 receiving yards and 14 TDs. On Thursday…...

Shawn Siegele continues to adjust his rookie rankings after Day 2 of the 2024 NFL Draft. Wow, Day 2 was just what it always is: thrilling, weird, heartbreaking, and more than a little bit odd when it comes to the players actually coveted by NFL teams. It’s also long. Ben Gretch and I streamed for almost five hours, covering the entire event for a special…...

Shawn Siegele adjusts his top-50 rookie rankings live during Day 1 of the 2024 NFL Draft. You can check out the pre-draft version of this piece for even more detail and radio embeds (including trade-value agnostic rankings for the Big 6), but I’m now moving to the in-draft version for a little bit cleaner experience with the live updates. I’ll have risers in green and…...

Shawn Siegele ranks his top-50 rookie prospects as we reach Day 1 of the NFL. This exercise helps provide a bit of a baseline before all of the festivities over the next three days. If you liked the write-ups in the 2024 Rookie Guide, I’m going to build them out the next step today, diving deeper into the SIS stats and adding insight from the…...

On a recent episode of Ship Chasing, we ended up joking about both multiple universes and my contention that the battle for rookie 1.01 went six players deep. Pat and Pete suggested that I split myself into six individual Shawns and make the case for each. This is that series. And it’s just in time to help you calibrate expectations before the 2024 NFL draft…....

Sportskeeda’s Tony Pauline recently dropped a sort of bombshell that brings some good news for those who like to approach dynasty rookie drafts in the RotoViz way: In speaking with a few teams, they believe the most underrated player at the top of this draft is Georgia tight end Brock Bowers. While some have mocked Bowers into the middle part of Round 1, no team…...

With the 2024 NFL Draft mere days away, I thought it would be a good idea to let the readers know who are the apples of the RotoViz team’s eyes in this particular draft class. Not necessarily the best player, or the most discussed, but the players who have perhaps flown somewhat under the radar, but whose landing spot is something we will be watching…...

If you’re playing in PPR leagues, using pass-catching RBs cannot be overstated. The correlations are too dominant to ignore. An enormous percentage of predictive correlative stats to RB PPR scoring is related to receiving work, and there is almost no way to be the RB1 overall without it. If you seek one thing in a fantasy RB, make it receiving work. As we scan the…...

Shawn Siegele explains why the loaded 2024 quarterback class could feature a consolation prize that pays off in a huge way and at a fraction of the price.  Everybody knows that Bo Nix is entering the NFL as an elderly prospect who just spent his final season throwing underneath relentlessly. He looks like the type of pure system QB who usually fails at the professional…...

Since 2018 we’ve been using the backfield dominator rating (BDR) to find undervalued running backs and to evaluate the top backs in the class. BDR is a key stat we report in the Box Score Scout, and it’s also a central component of some predictive models in the RB Prospect Lab. We’ve used it and related precursor metrics such as Workhorse Scores to find hidden…...

Welcome to Dynasty Spotlight. The purpose of this series is to put one veteran dynasty commodity under the microscope to analyze how he is viewed on the market, how this compares to his abilities as a player based on predictive stats, and possibly make recommendations on whether we should be spending or selling in the current marketplace. The subject of this edition is Atlanta Falcons’ RB Bijan…...
