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.
In 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 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. I’ll reference my PPR redraft rankings at the time of writing, which can be found here.
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.
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.
In late February and early March, I published a pair of articles about my early redraft Round 1 and Round 2 rankings. In this piece, I’m going to take a quick look at the top 24 now and compare it to then. 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’ll cover the top 13 players in this piece, and I’ll put out a part 2 shortly covering the final 11 players as well as the two who fell out of the top 24.
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. I’m going to analyze 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 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.
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.
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. Even though this is low-hanging fruit, I have to begin with Marlon Mack.
Now that the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft has concluded, I want to look at the values of all the defensive players, their landing spots, and what that could mean for us fantasy owners. How do they fit the team that drafted them? What kind of talent do they have around them? Will they make an impact right away or will they need time to find their role on the team? I’ll break all this down for you and get you ready for your fantasy drafts.
To continue my “A Look Back” series, I wanted to go back even further than the 2019 regular season and reference some of my pre-draft content. In the summer of 2019, I did a two-part article, looking at tight end targets and avoids for 2019. I already looked at my suggested targets in part one, so now let’s look back at the three players I said to avoid drafting.
To continue my “A Look Back” series, I want to go back even further than the 2019 regular season and go to some of my pre-2019 Draft content. If you’re interested in my previous work in that series, the links are at the bottom of the article. In the summer of 2019, I did a …

In this series, we analyze rookie IDP prospects by position group, giving you insight into where players will be selected and the pros and cons of each prospect’s game. Today, we’ll focus on the 2020 rookie defensive backs.
I took my advice albeit it is a mock draft and took Lamar Jackson with the 1.10 in this 12-team mock redraft. In this breakdown, I will give you a little synopsis on my thoughts and why I took said player.
Simmons has the skills and experience to be a star at the next level. The former Clemson star posted a sub 4.4 forty at the combine, which pushed his expected draft position into the top 10. A player who can be used in dozens of situations (see snap tracker below), there are defensive coordinators throughout the league salivating at the chance to work with Simmons.
Still more than four months out from peak redraft season, and surrounded by 11 other writers, editors, and podcasters – this is my mock draft diary from the elusive seventh selection using an RB-heavy approach.
In 2019, I wrote a weekly column for @DFF_Redraft giving QB, TE, and D/ST streamers each week of the fantasy season. To qualify as a potential streamer, a player needed to be 40% owned or less, according to ESPN’s ownership percentage data. In this three-piece series, I’m looking back at how I did with predicting each category of streamer. In this part, it’s time to look at the D/STs.
Jonnu Smith and Noah Fant appeared in my column four times each. In those eight appearances, there was just one hit, when Smith finished as the TE3 in Week 8. Other than that, they finished outside of the top 20 each additional time I recommended streaming them. Considering that Fant finished as the TE14 and Smith as the TE19 for the 2019 season, perhaps some of this was just variance. They weren’t bad recommendations in general, but they didn’t hit the weeks that I selected them as streamers.
In this three-piece series, I’m going to look back at how I did with predicting each category of streamer, starting with quarterbacks. To qualify as a potential streamer, a player needed to be 40% owned or less, according to ESPN’s ownership percentage data.
This is Part II of this series of articles covering draft props for defensive players in the 2020 NFL Draft, slated to begin April 23, 2020. In this article, we’ll be analyzing each position group and making predictions on the prop bets for how many of each position are selected in the draft. I’ve already covered my predictions for the offensive props in Part I.
In this series, we analyze rookie IDP prospects by position group, giving you insight into where players will be selected and the pros and cons of each prospect’s game. Today, we’ll focus on the defensive linemen. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the first round NFL IDP prospects at defensive line.
The biggest name still on the market for the cornerbacks has to be Logan Ryan. He was drafted by the New England Patriots in the third round, as the 83rd selection overall of the 2013 NFL Draft. Ryan spent the first four seasons of his career with the Patriots before he hit free agency and signed with the Tennessee Titans.
The biggest name still on the market for the defensive side has to be Everson Griffen. He was the fourth round selection, 100th pick overall in the 2010 NFL Draft, of the Minnesota Vikings. Griffen has spent his entire ten-year career with the Vikings.
“A Redraft Journey” returns, highlighting the up-and-down career of Allen Robinson and projecting him for the 2020 redraft fantasy football season.
The biggest name still on the market for the defensive side, has to be Jadeveon Clowney. He was the first overall pick of the 2014 NFL Draft, made by the Houston Texans. Clowney spent five seasons with Houston, where he improved each season and became a perfect complementary piece, opposite star J.J. Watt.
His journey has only encompassed one team, but he’s been everything from irrelevant to a strong RB1 during his time in the NFL.
