When to Target Running Backs in Redraft Leagues

Continuing my Redraft series, I’m now going to look at the average draft position (ADP) for running backs in 2025. My goal is to identify the ideal ADP windows for targeting the RB position versus other positions.

I looked at the top 96 players in 2025, and 32 running backs were taken in that range. I looked to see how the player did based on their draft position. I am using Sleepers’ ADP for this exercise.

Week 13 Starts/Sits

Welcome to this week’s edition of Dynasty Start/Sits! I have a 1QB league where I roster four QBs, and my current record is 12-1. I have zero active this week. I say this because I want readers to know that the QB Landscape is insane. It’s affecting all of us. Although, just because my hopes are dwindling in a league doesn’t mean I can’t help you with yours. I have some good ones ready for you as we approach the playoffs.

Injuries are inevitable in Fantasy Football. How you prepare and react to them can make or break your fantasy team. Did you build a bench with sufficient depth to withstand the running back injury carousel? How do you pivot if a key player goes on injured reserve? Each week, we look at the most impactful injuries in the Fantasy world and what players will step up their Fantasy production.

Vet Values: Week 13

If you lost Joe Burrow and need a legitimate QB1 to give your team the necessary upside to win a championship, Dak is your guy. There is no better top-tier quarterback from a Dynasty price versus projected points perspective. Dak has been on an absolute frenzy lately, putting up 25 or more fantasy points in five of the last six games and facing a favorable schedule down the stretch. Dak is having a career year and could be the very piece you need to win a championship in 2023.

Vet Values: Week 3

Welcome to the first edition of Vet Values for the 2023 season. Today, I am bringing you some guys who will get you fantasy points despite their cheaper price tag. In Dynasty Fantasy Football, we value youth, as we should. However, this sometimes creates an inefficiency in the market. These are the guys that won’t make your roster look good when you show your friends on Twitter. These are the guys that score you fantasy points and win you championships.

DFS with Doug

Welcome to Week 1 DFS, and congrats once again for making it through the offseason. Week 1 DFS is one of the most fun slates of the year for many reasons. Firstly, we have a lot of people playing DFS that will not be in future weeks. These people are putting in lineups without correlations or because they like this guy or that guy, and their lineups are dead on arrival. They are doing us all a favor by paying the rake for us. Secondly, the slate is made so far in advance of Week 1 that there are a bunch of silly good values. So many so that none of them become too chalky. You can build any lineups you want. Let’s build some GPP-winning lineups, shall we?

Preseason Overreactions: Week 1 Edition

Another week of preseason means another week of preseason overreactions. Twitter was full of highlights and discussions about who ran with which group during the games and who had the night off. Amongst all this, we must figure out what is an overreaction and what is real. We could go through many more players than the ones here. However, in the interest of not writing a book, I have cut down to the 12 I found most interesting to talk about. If I don’t get to your boy specifically, I do apologize. I am also not getting to talk about Nathan Rourke potentially having the play of the year while we are still in preseason. Without further ado, let’s break down these overreactions from the weekend.

Going Down with the Ship

I am a massive fan of veterans in Dynasty Fantasy Football, thanks to their discounted price. A brief glance through my previous writing will reveal this. One downside of these players is that they are nearing a drop in value, and you may not be able to get a return on your initial investment. If we look at Dynasty as a purely stock market game, this is a complete disaster. However, Dynasty Fantasy Football is not a stock market despite having some elements of a stock market within it. The way you win in your Dynasty league is ultimately by scoring more points than your opponents. Players hold value based on their potential to score fantasy points for us in the future. But after those points are scored, a player will often not return to their previous value. When should we ignore conventional stock market strategy and hold on to an asset even if we know it will depreciate in value? What players should we take the loss on?

Let’s dive right in with our first position: wide receiver.

Dynasty Fantasy Football for Beginners: Pre-Draft Prep

One of my favorite parts of Dynasty Fantasy Football is introducing someone new to it. It’s a more complex game than Redraft. requiring more forward-thinking, with many strategies and approaches to building your team. Your Dynasty startup is crucial to setting your team up for success in a Dynasty league. As we plunge into startup season, I’ll author a series of articles on different concepts, strategies, and tips for the beginner Dynasty manager. I primarily use Sleeper; it’s the easiest app for a league commissioner to utilize and navigate, so I will defer to it for this article. For now, we’ll start at square one.
