Dead to Me: Kerryon Johnson

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 16, 2020 | Comments Off on Dead to Me: Kerryon Johnson

I’ve loved the “Dead to Me” series of articles. It’s provided an excellent way to create redraft content throughout the offseason and take a closer look at the week-to-week effectiveness of one or two players at a time. By going in-depth and zooming in, we can discover how these players have been hurting your fantasy redraft teams for multiple years. After the 2020 NFL Draft, there are a bunch of new players that are now dead to me in redraft. I already looked at Marlon Mack as a primary victim of the NFL Draft. Now, it’s time for another player who’s now dead in my eyes because of the NFL Draft, Kerryon Johnson.

The Derrius Guice Debate: Comeback

By Zach Glicksman | May 15, 2020 | Comments Off on The Derrius Guice Debate: Comeback

@DFF_Karp and I are breaking down the Derrius Guice debate for 2020 redraft formats. I’ll be giving you information as to why I believe Guice is a great “bang-for-the-buck” running back to target in your redraft leagues. Meanwhile, @DFF_Karp will be telling you why he will not be drafting Derrius Guice at his current average […]

The Derrius Guice Debate: Bust

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 15, 2020 | Comments Off on The Derrius Guice Debate: Bust

While I don’t like to call any player “injury-prone,” Guice has been through countless injuries in just two years in the NFL. He’s hurt his ACL, hamstring, meniscus, and MCL so far and cannot seem to stay on the field. In general, I prefer to avoid these types of players; I require them to prove they can stay healthy before I take a chance on them. Unlike other players returning, Guice has never played a long stretch of healthy games in the NFL, so I have no template for what a healthy Guice would be.

Factory Workers’ Dynasty League Rookie Draft

By Carl Churchill | May 14, 2020 | Comments Off on Factory Workers’ Dynasty League Rookie Draft

Late Round 2 and it’s another easy decision for me. Bryan Edwards is my WR5 in this class, so I hit the draft button before I could even field offers. Like Reagor, Edwards checks all the boxes for me. On film, his catch radius and strength at 6’3 212 pounds are evident. He regularly wins in contested catch situations, making him “open” even when he isn’t truly open.

NFL Schedule Release Reaction

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 11, 2020 | Comments Off on NFL Schedule Release Reaction

This article will be a reaction to the release of the 2020 NFL schedule. Most of all, I’m excited that we have a schedule. I’m looking forward to the return of football in September, and this schedule makes it feel more real. Specifically, I’ll go through the two things that matter the most in redraft formats: bye weeks and early-season schedules.

IDP Rookie ADP Rewind

By Darrell Winstead | May 11, 2020 | Comments Off on IDP Rookie ADP Rewind

It’s been two weeks since the NFL draft was completed and fantasy drafts have been in full swing ever since. In this article, I want to take a look at and break down what I have been seeing in the data I have collected to date. I have compiled a spreadsheet to track all the completed IDP rookie drafts that I can find. As of today, I have 30 league drafts entered and there has been some interesting information that I would like to pass along to you for any upcoming drafts you might have

Redraft Team Focus: Titans

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 11, 2020 | Comments Off on Redraft Team Focus: Titans

Tannehill was a revelation in 2019. From the moment he took over in Week 7, he was a fantasy stud, averaging 22.5 fantasy points per game in his 10 starts. He was the QB3 during that period, finding success both through the air and on the ground. He completed 69.6% of his passes for 2,598 yards and 22 touchdowns while throwing only five interceptions.

The Curious Case of David Montgomery

By Corey Easley | May 9, 2020 | Comments Off on The Curious Case of David Montgomery

David Montgomery was all the rage a year ago after being drafted by the Chicago Bears in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Many believed that he would be the next all-around back that could take the Bears run game to the next level. Montgomery’s ADP in 2019 was the 23rd RB off the board and around 45.3 in fantasy drafts according to Fantasy Pros.

Rounds 1 and 2 Redraft Rankings Update: Part 2

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 8, 2020 | Comments Off on Rounds 1 and 2 Redraft Rankings Update: Part 2

In late February and early March, I published a pair of articles about my early redraft Round 1 and Round 2 rankings. If you want to find my full rankings, they are updated continuously and can be found here under the redraft tab. These rankings assume a 1QB, PPR format where there is an equal number of running back and wide receiver starters. The tiers divide players by their position to provide the best possible context for my rankings. I covered the top 13 players in Part 1, so here comes the final 11 players as well as the two who fell out of the top 24.

Redraft Team Focus: Giants

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 7, 2020 | Comments Off on Redraft Team Focus: Giants

With the NFL Draft behind us and most of free agency completed, it’s time for me to begin my biggest redraft project of the offseason.

It’s a long project, but I want to make sure that our readers have something they 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 start with the Giants since they’re my hometown team.

UDFAs To Know: RB Edition

By Joe Memmolo Jr. | May 6, 2020 | Comments Off on UDFAs To Know: RB Edition

Draft capital is king; however, GMs aren’t perfect. The following running backs were all undrafted and had significant fantasy value: Austin Ekeler, Phillip Lindsay, Fred Jackson, C.J. Anderson, Arian Foster, and Priest Holmes. Will any of the running backs end up being as valuable? Probably not, but they ranked high enough on my pre-draft film ranking to warrant getting their names out there to dynasty league players. When looking at undrafted free agents, talent matters, but so does opportunity and each of the four players below is closer to an opportunity than the other undrafted free agents.

IDP Devy Rankings Top 30

By Darrell Winstead | May 5, 2020 | Comments Off on IDP Devy Rankings Top 30

Once again here are my monthly rankings for IDP devy fantasy leagues. This is my overall composite rankings for college only, Campus to Canton, redraft and devy limited leagues. These rankings are put together for fantasy football and are my current assessments. They will change as I watch more film and games. Hopefully, this list can help guide you to a championship(s) and better prepare you for your NFL leagues.

Tyler Lockett: Lockdown Value

By Lewis Glover | May 3, 2020 | Comments Off on Tyler Lockett: Lockdown Value

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been doing plenty of drafting during this extended period of isolation and lockdown. What else am I supposed to do? One player who seems to be consistently undervalued be it either in a season-long best ball or dynasty start-up draft is Tyler Lockett. I’d be willing to wager he will be undervalued in redraft leagues come August as well.

Post Draft Superflex Rookie Mock

By Tyler Justin Karp | May 2, 2020 | Comments Off on Post Draft Superflex Rookie Mock

The DFF team recently did a post-draft superflex rookie mock. In this piece, I’m going to focus solely on my draft from the #9 slot. I want to dive into the four players I picked and concentrate on the value of those selections in the superflex dynasty format.
