2023 Devy RB Stock Watch

From our household names to our risers and fallers. Let’s dive in. We’ll start with the dynasty darling of the class, Texas RB Bijan Robinson.

Trade Ideas for the Upcoming 2023 Free Agent Running Backs

In dynasty, you have to be a step ahead of your competition. Everyone is captivated by the impressive incoming 2023 rookie running back class and rightfully so, it should be a fantastic influx of talent. However, my contrarian personality wants to gain an edge over this fact rather than going along with the flow. Since there is so much talent in the upcoming rookie class, the 2023 free agent class is flying under the radar. Now is an excellent time to familiarize yourself with the upcoming free agent class before everyone else does. Here is a list of the upcoming 2023 free agents. The current competition on the free agent’s team is included because their value could be affected as much as the actual free agents.

Week 7 Dynasty Waiver Wire

Welcome to this week’s edition of the DFF Dynasty Waiver Wire column! In this article, we will be focusing on players that should be rostered in much higher quantities on your dynasty teams. Our main focus will be on low rostership percentages below 50% but may include players rostered above that high mark. As always we will be accounting for a 12-team, full PPR, Superflex set-up for these articles but the players we highlight will apply to most scoring formats and league sizes as well. Without further ado let’s get into DFF’s priority waiver adds of Week 7.

Let’s Argue: Dynasty Thoughts From an Analyst Group Chat #1

Adjusting for Joe Mixon

To put it lightly, this is not the season fantasy managers hoped for when drafting Joe Mixon (RB – CIN) at his Round One ADP in fantasy drafts this year. 2021’s overall RB4 is quickly falling out of favor and slowly falling out of starting fantasy lineups. Over the last month, he’s been the RB18 and averaged just 11.8 fantasy points per game. So why is this happening and what can we do about it? There are several angles so let’s dive in.

Jameson Williams: Ligaments, Lions, and Long Term Value (Oh My!)

Athletes, however, will often take an additional year after their return before they begin to exhibit production close to their previous level of performance. Saquon Barkley is a recent example of this drastic improvement in the second season post-surgery.

Week 6 Starts and Sits

Welcome, #DFFArmy to Week 6! Bye weeks have arrived with Lions, Texans, Raiders, and Titans sitting at home this week. With players disappearing from those starting lineups, digging deep to find startable players becomes extra important! However, avoiding duds from players you’ve relied on in the past may be even more crucial. As always, I’ll look at some deeper targets that you may be on the fence about for my “Starts of the Week” and some bigger name performers that I’m expecting not to play well for my “Sits of the Week”.

Kyle Pitts: A Unicorn Without Its Horn

A unicorn without its horn is still a very special horse. Its defining characteristic is lost, but it’s easy to see that the magic is still there. When I think of magic (and more importantly, unicorns), I don’t imagine white manes, rainbows, or holographic elementary school backpacks. I think of Kyle Pitts. His “magic” comes in the form of ridiculous workout metrics, delectable college production, and tantalizing size. His “horn” is his TE designation. Come with me on a different type of fantasy journey as we explore the fate of Kyle Pitts’ dynasty value if he were to lose his TE designation.

Week 6 Dynasty Waiver Wire

Hello DFF members, my name is Chris, and I will be writing the weekly dynasty waiver adds piece this year. In this article I will be writing about players that I feel should be owned in much higher quantities in your dynasty leagues. I will try to stick to low ownership percentages, around 30% or less, but if there is a guy above that, who I think should be owned significantly more I will include them as well. I will be focusing on a 12-team, full PPR set-up for these articles but the players I am choosing should apply in 10-team leagues as well. Without further ado let’s get into the waiver adds.

NFL Player Props: Thursday Night Preview

Week 5 kicks off with what should be a low-scoring matchup between two underperforming AFC teams as the Colts (1-2-1) travel to the Broncos (2-2) for Thursday Night Football. The Colts enter this contest as underdogs after losing their best offensive weapon, Jonathan Taylor, this past Sunday. On the other side, the Broncos lost their star running back, Javonte Williams, for the season, but the home-field advantage on a short week keeps them as favorites.

Week 5 Starts and Sits

Goff exploded last week against Seattle throwing for 378 yards and four touchdowns leading him to be the fifth highest scoring QB this year. What a difference a year can make! And in a game where he was missing Amon-Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark, and D’Andre Swift nonetheless. It was an incredible show, but now he must take his Lions into New England, where Bill Belichick is known for making it tough on the opposing team’s best players.

Kenny Pickett

The Kenny Pickett Era Begins in Pittsburgh

Pickett showed true confidence throwing the ball downfield, something we hadn’t seen out of Mitchell Trubisky. Pickett’s willingness to let it fly is a great sign of his fantasy value. The Steelers have a great group of offensive weapons, headlined by second-year RB Najee Harris. Inserting Pickett into the lineup will only open up more opportunities for Harris. This move increases the stock for every pass-catcher in the offense as well. Diontae Johnson, Chase Claypool, and Pat Freiermuth should at least be getting more big-play chances. The biggest winner, however, is rookie WR George Pickens. The 6’3” field-stretching receiver saw the ball come his way much more frequently in the short time he had playing with Pickett under center. We saw what Pickett was able to do at Pitt last season, supporting a Biletnikoff award-winning WR in Jordan Addison.  “Pickett to Pickens” is going to be a call we could be hearing for years to come.
