In my previous article, I discussed how playing dynasty fantasy football could help you win your redraft leagues. I said the two types of leagues are symbiotic, similar to how the cyanobacteria and fungus team up to create the lichen. In this analogy, I
In nature, the concept of symbiosis is when two organisms work together for their mutual benefit. This is different from parasitism where one organism is harmed while the other is helped. An example of parasitism is a tick on a dog. An example of symbiosi
The mission of this article is to make our in-house experts sizzle and bristle over the hot button issues that face dynasty owners. Our experts make the entire route tree HOT as they address topics from the world of IDP, Devy, Start/Sit, Non-PPR (standard
It is startup draft season and time to begin formulating your thoughts on the types of dynasty leagues you plan to join this year. The diversity of settings that are now available can seem overwhelming, so the DFF team came together to offer an overview o
The Fallacy of Tight End Premium The tight end position in fantasy can be one of the most infuriating to figure out during a season. The position is notorious for scarcity, top-end talent, inconsistency, and injuries. There is a lot of support for the ide
You’ve followed the sage wisdom of @FF_DownUnder and leaped head first into dynasty. Now it’s time to start thinking about and preparing for the draft. The pressure of a startup dynasty draft can be exponentially more intense than in a redraft league.
Researchers have found a number of common biases that people have in day-to-day interactions and situations. One of these is the representativeness bias, which is our tendency to assume something is more likely to happen because the situation is similar t
Each year of the dynasty off-season, I try to take a step back and examine my rosters for improvements. I ask myself a lot of questions. Where can I get better? What mistakes did I make? What did I get right? How can I improve? How do I own so […]
We’ve all made irrational, biased and short-sighted decisions in Dynasty. That’s what makes this game we play so much fun. But to be successful, we have to learn from those mistakes and capitalize when others continue to make them. This article is int
It’s probably a fair assumption to make that if you are reading this article, you, too, enjoy fantasy football. Perhaps you already play in dynasty leagues (thanks for reading anyway), and already know it’s the best format of fantasy football (it’s
NFL teams win in the margins. Countless hours are spent identifying the slightest advantage to get the upper hand come Sunday. One area where this leverage can be found is in the use of various personnel packages and schemes. Personnel packages are the co
Fantasy football enthusiasts have long called for the abolishment of kickers and D/STs. In 2018 the top kicker and 12th-highest-scoring kicker were separated by a meager 3.0 points per game. The second to 12th best D/STs scored just 2.3 PPG differently (t
It’s cliche as all hell to say “Buy Low and Sell High.” That doesn’t make it any less true. The constant fluctuation of a player’s perceived value amongst the masses, depending on the week they’ve had is what most players think of when the
Deep within the relevance of a quality offense, a rookie named Addai emerged as the perfect cog to the Peyton Manning machine. This Rookie Stunner Series is based around first round RBs (from 2005-2014) who reached (or clawed) at the 1,200 yards from scri
I hope you held onto your Josh Gordon shares because Flash has a new home. He has been traded for a conditional 5th round pick to… where else but New England. Belichick has summoned his dark powers yet again, this time hoodwinking John Dorsey into a dea
After a long offseason, the 2018 NFL season is finally upon us! The preseason begins in earnest this week, and the first episode of Hard Knocks has aired. Ladies and gentlemen, football is back. Many startup drafts have already taken place, but there are
The New York Jets are one of those teams that won’t excite many readers or investors in Fantasy Football. I started this series covering Jacksonville and Washington. I want to highlight a couple of critical points that I made at that time: Be mindful
