Dynasty Analysis
n this article series, I’m analyzing every one of the 32 NFL teams and all of their redraft-relevant fantasy assets. It’s a long project, but I want to make sure that you, the reader, have something you can refer to for every team. For each article, I’ll split up the fantasy assets into three categories: high-end assets, usable contributors, and dart throws. Let’s jump into the Redskins.
Jordan Howard seems to be the black sheep running back of the NFL and the dynasty/fantasy community. I see very little love out there in the Twitterverse for the former top 10 back and I’m certain dynasty owners have found it difficult to move him for any reasonable value. Admittedly, it’s not a great situation for teams rebuilding, but it is a window of opportunity for contenders to take advantage of.
In this series, I’m looking at the backup quarterback landscape with a focus on dynasty superflex formats. In those leagues, having a starting quarterback is extremely valuable, so many backups are rostered, with the number depending on how deep the league is. Keep in mind that the backup listed here is the backup in dynasty value, not necessarily the backup on the NFL roster. In part one, I examined the top tier of dynasty backups, the potential future long-term starters. Let’s jump into the second tier. Unlike the first tier, this second group consists of a varied and diverse set of quarterbacks.

The Los Angeles Rams signed Earnest Edwards, Wide Receiver, out of the University of Maine as an undrafted free agent following the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Giants signed Derrick Dillon, Wide Receiver, out of Louisiana State University. He was an undrafted free agent after the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Dallas Cowboys signed Aaron Parker, Wide Receiver, out of the University of Rhode Island as an undrafted free agent following the 2020 NFL Draft.
I see Chubb as very similar to Derrick Henry. Chubb had 298 carries in 2018 compared to Henry’s 303, so they were close in carry count. The significant differences were that Chubb had 36 receptions while Henry had only 18, but Henry scored 18 total touchdowns to Chubb’s eight. I think the Browns’ offense will be better overall than the Titans’, so Chubb should improve his touchdown total in 2020. While I do expect Chubb to lose a lot of receiving production, I think he could have around 25 catches in 2019, which isn’t bad. Also, the Browns replaced horrific head coach Freddie Kitchens with Kevin Stefanski, who ran the Vikings’ run-heavy attack behind Dalvin Cook in 2019.
The Vikings picked up Quartney Davis, Wide Receiver, out of Texas A&M University. He was an undrafted free agent.
Despite the Panthers’ poor quarterback play in 2019 from Cam Newton, Kyle Allen, and Will Grier, Moore flourished. He had 87 receptions on 135 targets for 1,175 yards and four touchdowns, and he finished just behind McCaffrey in targets and led the Panthers in receiving yards. Moore was the WR16 in 2019 in 15 games and averaged 15.4 PPR points per game, 16th among wide receivers.
I wasn’t joking when I said I leaned heavily on rookie picks in the DFF Factory Workers’ Dynasty League. I also chose to lean heavily on wide receivers in the rookie draft as I mostly faded them in the start-up. My starting receivers are Allan Robinson, Brandin Cooks, and Marquise Brown. Not a sexy group by any means but Robinson is the real deal and I’ll stand by that. Cooks and Brown are boom/bust type players but Cooks is still just 26 years old in a really good situation as the lead wide receiver for Deshaun Watson in Houston.

It’s time for the second article of my Dynasty Debates series, which tries to break down popular debates in the dynasty community. Last time I discussed Josh Jacobs and if he can be an elite fantasy option. Today I will discuss a prevalent debate of who do you want going forward: Kyler Murray or Lamar Jackson?
In this article, @DFF_Karp and I will dig into the debate on Juju Smith-Schuster’s value for redraft leagues. @DFF_Karp is ready to lock him in as a high-end wide receiver two while I am proceeding with an abundance of caution.
Last time in this debate series, @DFF_Ztrain and I broke down the two-sided Derrius Guice debate. He took the side of a third-year breakout for Guice while I took the side that Guice will be a 2020 redraft bust. This time, we’re going to debate JuJu Smith-Schuster. I get the positive outlook this time since I’m going to tell you why I believe Smith-Schuster will return to the WR1 ranks and why I’ll have lots of shares of him in redraft.
I’ll split up the fantasy assets into three categories: high-end assets, usable contributors, and dart throws. I’ll reference my PPR redraft rankings at the time of writing, which are here. If you want to read my previous work in this series, the full list with links is at the bottom of the article. Let’s jump into the Texans.
Mock drafts are the best way to prepare for your real drafts. Practice makes perfect, and coming to your draft prepared is the best way to ensure you’ll be happy with your team coming out of a draft. The importance of mocks can’t be understated. Some fantasy players won’t even look at the research and will trust a cheat sheet they download minutes before the draft or even the rankings in the draft that they are doing. Trust your own rankings and thoughts on players at the end of the day do your homework. Don’t rely on what you are told or what is on the list during the draft. Fantasy is fun and one of the best ways to stay informed on where players will go in your drafts is by doing mocks.
In this series, we analyze the IDP strength-of-schedule for the 2020 NFL season. In IDP fantasy football, opportunity correlates to production, so today we’ll focus on pace-of-play / plays-per-game that a few lucky defenses will face (based on 2019 data). Let’s take a look at the defenses and IDP defenders who could benefit from their schedule.
