Dynasty Analysis
I set out on this journey trying to find out if we overvalue rookies in drafts. I was trying to figure out a way to track this for Dynasty purposes, but I could not come up with a way that didn’t involve me tracking years upon years, worth of data for rookies and veterans alike. […]

This offseason the Miami Dolphins brought in former Chicago Bears and Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Adam Gase to be their head coach in 2016. Accurate or not Gase has been considered an up- and-coming offensive mind in football circles for a few years now. During his first draft, at the helm of an NFL team, […]
In one of my more recent pieces, I touched upon the concept of tanking coming out of a start-up draft. I know it hit a certain group of people – namely those who feel that certain players in their late 20’s need to be sold before they hit “the cliff” of production – rather hard. However, […]
The 22nd overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft was TCU’s wide receiver Josh Doctson. An “old” rookie at 24, Doctson was drafted by the Washington Redskins with the hopes of him developing into their wide receiver 1 of the future. Although his role as a rookie is hard to predict there are several decent receiver […]

I’ll keep it 100 here for you all: If you’re content with merely making the playoffs every year and never building sustainable success or improving your odds at title runs, stop reading now. Seriously. Maybe you should consider a different hobby, preferably one where you don’t have to worry about being competitive. Model railroads would […]
Originally a 7th round pick of the Miami Dolphins in 2012 out of the University of Nevada-Reno, wide receiver Rishard Matthews played out his rookie contract in South Florida and hit the open market this past off-season. In March he signed a 3-year, 15 million-dollar contract, with the Tennessee Titans, after fielding offers from several […]
Few players in football, both in real life football and in fantasy football, are as polarizing as Robert Griffin III. The 2nd overall pick of the 2012 draft out of Baylor was supposed to be the next breakout star at the quarterback position and for one single season, he lived up to all the hype […]
So you’ve decided to accept the challenge of running your own dynasty league? First of all, congratulations, there are few life decisions as momentous as undertaking the responsibility of commissioning a Dynasty league. Birthing a startup Dynasty league is no different than birthing a child (and please do tell the mother of your children that […]
It was reported that third-year tight end Eric Ebron had to be carted off the field Saturday with an apparent Achilles injury. The Achilles tendon is the tendon that attaches your calf muscle to the back of your heel. Ebron’s Injury According to multiple reports, Ebron was unable to apply pressure on his right leg, […]
Each season the tight end position typically has the same names atop the leader board at seasons end. However, with every new season comes new opportunities for different players to emerge and become difference makers in fantasy football. Last year, for example, the Browns’ Gary Barnidge came out of nowhere to become one of football’s […]
Stevie Johnson, the Chargers wide receiver, injured his right knee shortly after making a diving catch during a 7-on-7 drill. This non-contact injury came while his right knee twisted when spinning around and looking to run up-field. It has now been widely reported that said receiver’s knee injury is a torn meniscus & he will […]
Who do I draft at the end of the 1st round?? For championship caliber teams and even the possible playoff contenders, draft time isn’t so cut and dry when it comes to who to draft. The sure fire talent starts to drop off midway through the first round, which can make it challenging, and often […]

Rookie Jeff Driskel is currently a third string quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. If it weren’t for dynasty fantasy football leagues, I doubt anyone outside of the Driskel family would even know that or care. Now that my disclaimer is out of the way, let’s examine Driskel and see if he’s worth a rookie […]
Sometimes, it all about the splash play in the world of dynasty fantasy football. Once the heir apparent, Alabama’s runner Kenyan Drake got reduced to a backup role behind Derrick Henry, the excitement ended or had it? Drake’s spectacular kickoff return for a touchdown in the 2016 National Championship Game will always be remembered and […]
You’ve probably heard this line before, but it’s definitely worth repeating: everyone makes mistakes. Some more than others; some worse than others. Some mistakes can offset a project, a relationship, or even a potential career. Whenever you run into that old friend at the bar or diner and you start to reminisce, those mistakes […]
When writing an article like this there’s a certain process that many people would argue needs to happen. Defining the word “breakout” would be a good start, but then it gets more complicated. What types of stats or traits are being looked for in order to help identify these “breakout” receivers? I’ve read these types […]
J.J. Watt underwent back surgery to repair a herniated disc. Initial reports say Watt will be able to return Week 1 vs. the Chicago Bears in roughly seven weeks, but most medical experts believe Watt’s injury could take up to 10 weeks to heal. What’s a herniated disc? Each vertebra or bone in the back […]
The NFL GM The job of general managers in professional sports involve loads of projecting. The name of the game is not acquiring talent who have performed well, but talent who will perform well in the future. Specifically, in football, “NFL” can also stand for “Not For Long”, as one good year doesn’t guarantee a […]
My good buddy and fellow dynasty football factory writer, Craig (@DFF_Craig) have played in a dynasty league together for a handful of years. During that time, he and I have traded one player back and forth more than any other. We kept waiting for the day that Christine Michael would live up to the immense […]
Every season, we, as dynasty players, see little known players come from a less than stellar college offense with great measurables and explosive athleticism and we can’t help but wonder… “What could this guy do in a better system given the opportunity?” This year, that particular player is wide receiver, Tevaun Smith. As an Iowa […]
Everyone in the fantasy football business loves a good sleeper and by extension, the bigger the scandal makes an even better story. Today, I will be discussing the Giants free agent pickup and former Illinois State Redbirds rusher, Marshaun Coprich, who has made some major headlines over the last fourteen months or so. On the […]
