Dynasty Analysis
For football degenerates, the offseason is way too long. From the morning after the Super Bowl, to the month before the draft, to OTAs, training camps and the preseason, we are dying for any kind of pigskin content to fill our fix. NFL team reporters, a.k.a. beat writers, are football-loving humans just like we are, […]
Drew Brees: Buy. If a quarterback put up around 4,964 yards and 37 TD’s I would say he’s a very talented player that I wouldn’t mind owning regardless of his age. However, that isn’t a one year stat-line. It’s an approximate average of what Drew Brees has done over the last 8 seasons. He’s one […]
Football is one of the most physical and violent activities on planet Earth. What we all know is nearly (sorry, Jarvis Landry) every one of these players are in the top-1 percent of athletes in the world and they all can ball. Somehow, though, the top-1 percent of the top-1 percent of athletes are sometimes […]
There’s a war brewing in the fantasy football community. A split, a great divide that could change everything going forward. What is causing this great schism? Team #ZeroWR vs. #ZeroRB. Blood will spill and many great lives will be lost. Okay it’s really not that big of a deal, but it is actually a pretty […]
Well fantasy fans, with week 1 behind us it’s time to act- and mostly overreact- to what we think we saw during the NFL’s kickoff weekend. We saw our first significant injury to a star player when the Charger’s Keenan Allen was lost for the season with a torn ACL and many others failed to […]
Well, we finally have one week of NFL action under our belts and I hope all of our readers are sitting at 1-0 going into this weekend. Our team of weekly content writers here at Dynasty Football Factory will once again be offering up our Start & Sit suggestions for Week 2 at all positions-including […]
Building Your Draft Board: Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder Unlike the other pieces in this draft prep series, I’m going to specifically focus on cap leagues here. We have a lot of other content here at Dynasty Football Factory where we talk through navigating a snake-draft startup. In particular, Andy Miley has […]
Scouting Your League-mates: Know Them Better than they Know Themselves No matter what format your dynasty league is – whether it is a more “normal” league or a cap league – you should always be scouting your league-mates. During his podcast tour this summer, Leo Paciga (@Ciga_FF on Twitter) talked in depth around how he […]
Although we here at the Dynasty Football Factory are primarily focused on helping provide you- the dynasty owner- season long and multi-seasonal advice and information, it would be foolish for us not to provide our readers with weekly content to better prepare you for the weekly grind of setting your lineups. Several of our writers […]
Scouting Yourself: I’m Starting with the Man in the Mirror Horrible Michael Jackson reference aside, self-scouting is the most important thing you can do to prepare for your upcoming football season. However, if you’re not brutally honest with yourself during this process, you’ll wind up with blind spots on your roster that will likely come […]
Summer is coming to an end and we are in the midst of the preseason and seeing how our favorite football teams will ready themselves to try and win the Big Game in February after 17 weeks of the regular season and three rounds of playoffs leading up to it. It’s a time filled with […]
If you bought low on Danny Woodhead after an injury shortened 2014 and had him stashed on your squad for last season, you definitely reaped the benefits as he finished the season as the number 3 PPR running back. Woodhead is playing this year under his former Offensive Coordinator Ken Wisenhunt. Ultimately, this should be […]
I recently covered running backs who I predicted would underperform in 2016 and now it’s time for me to focus on the receivers. I don’t recall where I heard it so I cannot give this quote the credit it’s due, but I always loved the saying “you can’t win your league with your 1st round pick, but you […]
The Situation Tony Romo was hurt…again. This time is happened just three plays into Thursday’s preseason game against the Seahawks, taking a hit from Seattle’s Cliff Avril. An MRI on Friday that revealed that Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo has a broken bone in his back, per David Helman of the team’s official site. As […]
Ryan Mathews has gone from being LaDainian Tomlinson’s replacement in San Diego just a few years ago, to donning a reputation around the league as one of those backs who is always hurt – a perennial injury. In the past year, Mathews has had a smaller scale resurgence in Philadelphia. What is his value, really? […]
Every year in the NFL, several players over perform and exceed expectations and many players underperform and let their fans down. As a casual fan, that can be exciting or disappointing, but as a fantasy football owner, a player who over or underperforms can make or break your entire season. In this 2-part series I will […]

The following video is the brain child of creator and analyst, Alex Rollins Watch the video while listening to the commentary from DFF’s Video Analyst, Alex Rollins (@BHAnalysis) as he informs you on what to expect what your expecting of QB Kirk Cousins.

In many Dynasty leagues, especially ones with shallow-to-mid sized rosters, playing the waiver wire during the course of the season is an outstanding way to be able to find helpful pieces that can potentially slip through the cracks in rookie drafts or find new life after being jettisoned off of someone else’s Dynasty roster. If you’re […]
For my next “Player Profile” I am going to give away one of my future monsters of IDP. I suppose in some circles he could be called a “sleeper.” So, for all my friends and colleagues who read this and know me personally, this is a nice juicy bone for all you wanna be IDP […]
As the fantasy season is well underway with the arrival of the preseason games, it is the time of year when we are combing waiver wires in search of those hidden gems that can give us a competitive advantage in the future. This season, one such player is DJ Foster, the rookie from Arizona State. […]
If you have ever researched Fantasy Football, you’ve probably heard the saying, “You can’t win your league early on, but you can lose it.” In most cases, that proves to be true, but fantasy analysts are completely missing the opposite end of spectrum. In the late rounds of your fantasy draft and even in the […]
Here’s the thing, does anybody really know what to expect from the Chicago Bears offense in 2016? Long gone are the days of Matt Forte, the pass-catching extraordinaire, who set the record for most receptions by a running back in a single season with 102. Wave goodbye to Martellus Bennett, who many times last year […]
Dynasty fantasy football is one of the most rewarding and yet challenging pastimes I know. The knowledge of the game, effective and timely roster personnel adjustments, combined with blind luck can make all the difference in the world. Sometimes a trade can put your team over the edge into a championship window. There are many […]
New York Giants The Giants signed a bunch of free agents this offseason, most of which were on the defensive side of the ball. Guys like Olivier Vernon, Janoris Jenkins, and Damon Harrison will help the defense improve, but the linebacker to target on the New York defense is Devon Kennard. *Devon Kennard – Is […]
Let’s take a look at some injuries which have happened in camp so far this offseason. In fact, we’ve even had a couple of big IDP scares already that are worth looking at. However, before we cover my beloved IDP let’s dive into some hiccups on the offensive side of the ball. Stevie Johnson was […]
