Dynasty Analysis
Dobbs is coming off his worst game of the season. There is a very real possibility the Vikings start a QB other than Dobbs in the Fantasy playoffs. So, hedge this bet by picking up Nick Mullens. However, what we do know is Kevin O’Connell is going to pass no matter who his QB is. Despite losing Cousins, the Vikings remain fourth in the NFL in passing yards. What complicates this further is there are three quarterbacks in the mix. If I had to rank them right now, it would be 1. Josh Dobbs, 2. Nick Mullens, 3. Jaren Hall. Dobbs has the biggest fantasy upside and is a potential league winner due to his rushing acumen. Dobbs has averaged 19.12 fantasy points per game in his four games with Minnesota. This has been without the NFL’s best wide receiver, Justin Jefferson, who returns after this week.
Injuries are inevitable in Fantasy Football. How you prepare and react to them can make or break your fantasy team. Did you build a bench with sufficient depth to withstand the running back injury carousel? How do you pivot if a key player goes on injured reserve? Each week, we look at the most impactful injuries in the Fantasy world and what players will step up their Fantasy production.
Man, has Derek Carr been beaten up this year or what? Carr exited the Saints’ Week 13 matchup early with several injury concerns, including his shoulder, back, and head. Carr is now in concussion protocol for the second time in three games, so he will likely be sitting out the game against Carolina next week. Enter Jameis Winston, who has been quite underwhelming in his few relief appearances this year, but still, he’s a live arm with a decent fantasy ceiling.

It’s “Bye-apocalypse” Part 2. We’re short key stable options this week. It’s officially December and that means updated DFS NFL odds and the final month of the Dynasty Fantasy Football season. So, just like last time, we’re cutting back on the sits and only doing two sits per position. It’s time for our ~FREE~ Week 13 edition of Dynasty Start/Sits!
In dynasty, the WR position is constantly in flux. It changes like the wind. One week, Ceedee Lamb isn’t even a top-five dynasty WR, and the next, he’s knocking on Chase and Jefferson’s door, asking if there’s room for one more in the top tier. With that in mind, it’s important to do some of your own evaluating so that you aren’t constantly blown to and fro by the increasingly volatile market.

If you lost Joe Burrow and need a legitimate QB1 to give your team the necessary upside to win a championship, Dak is your guy. There is no better top-tier quarterback from a Dynasty price versus projected points perspective. Dak has been on an absolute frenzy lately, putting up 25 or more fantasy points in five of the last six games and facing a favorable schedule down the stretch. Dak is having a career year and could be the very piece you need to win a championship in 2023.
Dortch was a player I had high hopes for heading into the 2023 season after several impressive showings in 2022. His opportunities were limited last season, but in the games he saw more than a 75% snap share, Dortch averaged ten targets per game in this Arizona offense. He was an integral part of this passing attack, and not all of this was when Kyler was healthy; Dortch was producing late in the season with Colt McCoy, Trace McSorley, and David Blough as his quarterbacks. With only Marquise Brown clearly ahead of him on the depth chart, I thought Dortch has a real shot to earn himself an every-down role in this offense. However, that was far from the case when the 2023 season started.
Lockett has an impressive streak of five straight WR 2 or better (Top 24) Fantasy points per game seasons. He currently sits at WR28 on the season. He has been a victim of sub-par QB play, added target competition, and a tough pass defense schedule to date. The last part of this finally lightens up for the playoffs with an incredible slate of games for a Fantasy wide receiver. This also holds true for D.K. Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but since they both will cost first-round Dynasty draft capital, they likely aren’t acquirable on a tight budget.

We can’t all have a bounty of draft picks available for trade. So, how do we get a Louis Vuitton impact on a Dollar Store budget? This mini-series is intended to highlight players with favorable matchups for your Fantasy playoffs in Week 15, 16, and 17 that you can afford. This is an unspoken edge you can get on your league-mates as, more often than not, contenders will just be looking to acquire old players with a lofty fantasy point per game. Hopefully, you are not in a Dynasty league with a trade deadline. If you are, you should get that fixed with your commissioner for future years.
Happy Thanksgiving! We’re heading into the home stretch and need to throw out our priors on players. At this point in the season, we must ride the hot hands to make it to the promised land: the fantasy playoffs! Let’s get into our Week 12 edition of Dynasty Start/Sits.

This is the second consecutive week Wicks has made our list, but it needs to be reiterated as the rookie continues to produce while flying under the radar. As we mentioned last week, the usage has not been there (less than 50% snaps played since Christian Watson returned), but the efficiency has certainly been there. Dontayvion has made his presence known every time he steps onto the field, making one explosive play after another.

Hello DFF members, I am Chris, and I am doing a “Rookie Roundup” series for the 2023 season. My primary space in fantasy centers around analytics, rookie models, and early career models, so this is something I should be able to make beneficial content out of. This will be released every two weeks, and I will keep you updated on how these rookies have been performing and how their values should be changing. I will provide my take on their current value. This should be used as a tool when buying or selling as what I think their “fair value” is. I would be trying to make moves for these players where you buy for less and sell for more, but if you can get the price I list, I do think it is still in your favor.
For all of us who play in leagues with three-round, two-week playoffs, we are in the final week of the fantasy regular season! While most leagues will finish their regular season in later weeks, at least some percentage of you will start your playoffs after this week. Injuries and role changes throughout the season have left even monster teams from the preseason in shambles by this stage. If you desperately need some replacements or some depth, you have come to the right place. Let’s dig in!
Welcome back for your Week 11 edition of Dynasty Start/Sits. Another week, another QB is out for the year. Finding reliable QB production feels as hard as it’s ever been. However, no matter the position, I’ve got you covered! Let’s get into our Week 11 Starts/Sits.

Xavier Gipson is a rookie UDFA out of Stephen F Austin, where he had an incredibly successful college career. Gipson finished his career for the Lumberjacks with 243 receptions, 4,305 yards, and 37 touchdowns over four seasons. He exceeded 1k receiving yards in his junior and senior seasons, but playing for an FCS program prevented the star wide receiver from fielding much interest from NFL scouts. However, Xavier proved the doubters wrong and made the 53-man roster for the New York Jets this year. He’s also seen his usage skyrocket in these past two weeks.

The downside of watching Panthers and Bears on Thursday Night Football is having to watch the Panthers and Bears on Thursday Night Football. The upside is not having another sub-40 total on this week’s main Sunday slate. This week, the island games eliminate teams like the Panthers, Bears, Patriots, and Jets from the main slate. Totals are still down quite a bit from previous seasons, thanks to scoring being down. We do have a couple of spots that I am excited to attack, though, so let’s get into it!
Hello, and welcome to another great DFF article. In this piece, I will be looking at a large majority of the WRs in the NFL and dissecting their performances so far this season. I will be looking at all WRs who have played 200 or more snaps this season. I used PlayerProfiler.com’s Data Analysis package to pull stats like Target Share, Target Rate, and Yards per Route Run for these players. Then, I sorted them from worst to best, and I will highlight anything that I thought was interesting. Hopefully, we can use this to identify buys and sells, as well as fraudulent producers, which players are really good, and which are really bad. Let’s dive right into the numbers.
Hello and welcome to my running trade catalog for the 2023 fantasy football season. In this piece, I will be going over some trades that I have actually made this year in my leagues. I will explain my thoughts on making the trade, the league setting, and the state of my team. I hope this will help you learn some good structures for trading and what type of assets I am trading for or away whether I am tanking or contending. We are going to start this one off with a good lesson in bad trades.
