A Fantasy Football auction can get your blood flowing and they are much more intense than regular straight drafts. If you haven’t tried one — or if you haven’t done one in a while — get on it! Now, they even have auctions on Fantasy sites like ESPN, MyFantasyLeague.com and CBSSports.com, which we’ll get into. …
Fantasy Baseball draft season is finally here, which means I have to get my rankings together. Normally, I’d start from catchers and go forward in the rankings posts through the infielders and outfielders, before getting to the pitchers. But this season, I’m starting with the top 70 Starting Pitcher rankings for 2015 Fantasy Baseball! Normal …
Over the past three or four years, on Fantasy Baseball magazine has stood out above the rest – and I really don’t think it’s close. I got my digital copy of “The Fantasy Baseball Guide 2015” this week, and once again, I’m supremely impressed by the people involved, the design and – most of all …
You may or may not have noticed that I’ve been slacking on my January blog posts on DavidGonos.com. You know I’ve been writing for several sites lately, from SportsIllustrated.com to FantasySports.About.com to SKYLLZONE. But now, I’ve launched an entirely new Fantasy Sports website called SoCalledFantasyExperts.com, where I’ll be joined by dozens of Fantasy Baseball and …
You’re so close to a Fantasy Football championship, you can taste it! Our Week 16 Fantasy Rankings will help you become a champion for the entire Fantasy offseason! While Daily Fantasy Football has become all the rage in the instant gratification world we live in, putting in the time and effort to build a quality …
If you’ve made it this far in your Fantasy playoffs, then you are just a couple more wins away from winning the whole shebang! The Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings should help you with those very difficult lineup decisions! Most likely, you’re not struggling with who to start at quarterback, tight end or kicker. But …
I can't contain my excitement on sharing a Fantasy Football League setup known commonly as All-Play with you all.Even crazier? I have a league setup, I tried personally in my home league and it was a resounding success and fun for everyone. So, now is as good of a time as any to do it. The …
If you’re reading these Week 14 Fantasy Football rankings, there’s likely only two reasons for it: 1. You beat out half of your league for one of a few coveted playoff spots. 2. You’re in a league that doesn’t have a championship game until Week 17 and you’re sick of people mocking your league because …
The Week 13 Discount Diving post comes with plenty to look forward to. Thanksgiving feast, watching Football while devouring far too much food, monitoring your Fantasy Squads (of course) and their bids to make playoffs, or snag a Bye in the first round, and for some spending the quality time with your family. No matter …
The last week of the Fantasy regular season is upon us and the Week 13 Fantasy Football rankings are chock full of players from all 32 NFL teams for the first time in a long time. Normally, I’d do a chatty writeup about something interesting going on in Fantasy Football right now, but with three …
We had to switch up our Week 12 Fantasy Football rankings a little bit this week, mostly because time was not on my side! But I’m not going to leave you hanging, and with just two weeks left until the Fantasy playoffs arrive, your Fantasy Football lineup is more important than ever. Normally, I go …
Entering the 2014 baseball season, Michael Beller and I had a Fantasy Debate on Sports Illustrated about which second baseman should be drafted first: Robinson Cano or Jason Kipnis? But instead, it ended up being guys like Jose Altuve, Anthony Rendon and Brian Dozier atop the second base rankings. So what happened to those guys? …
Last week by in large was a successful week for Discount Diving. Although the lineup I posted only won in one contest, I did do well in all of my other contests, using many of the same discount players. The big hitters were Justin Forsett, Roddy White, and Jason Witten performing as I projected. Jeremy Hill …
There might be no other Fantasy position that offers as much talent on the waiver wire from one week to the next as wide receivers. Our Week 11 WR rankings show how truly deep the position is, and we’re going to help you plan the future a bit. With just three weeks left in the …
The Week 11 TE rankings are as important as ever, but if you are an astute Fantasy owners smart enough to still be reading articles in Week 11, then you’re probably headed toward the Fantasy playoffs. That means we need to help you start preparing for that, so this week, we’ve been sharing some players …
The Fantasy playoffs are less than one month away – can you believe it? These Week 11 RB Rankings will hopefully get you one step closer to getting into those playoffs. And once you get into the playoffs – well, anything can happen! But if you’re already kicking butt and you’re ready to look ahead …
Six defenses are coming off byes – and that makes 12 defenses coming off byes over the past two weeks. The Week 11 DST rankings are quite mixed. What I mean by that is there are several good defenses dropping out of the top 10 because of matchups, and likewise, there are some mediocre defenses …
Over the past two weeks, 12 teams have gone on bye weeks, which means you’ve had 12 fewer quarterbacks to choose from for your starting lineup. While there are still four more teams going on a bye in Week 11, the Week 11 QB rankings look better stocked than they have in a while. And …
I’ve already taken part in two mock drafts, including the first round of a 2015 Fantasy Baseball Mock Draft on FantasySports.About.com (with the second round posted on this site) and one that MLB.com hosted here. In both instances, Miguel Cabrera, who lost his third-base eligibility for 2015, was the top first baseman selected (second and …
It certainly felt great to get back in the win column on FanDuel in a big way last week after a successful sample lineup, and discount diving post. Hitting on Ryan Tannehill, Jeremy Hill, and getting a decent performance from Rueben Randle helped lead three entries with this lineup to payout and scoring 131 points. …
You’re interested in the Week 10 Kicker rankings, you say? Let me help you out there, with a look at the best kickers in a six-team bye week. With Stephen Gostkowski sitting on a couch this week, along with Adam Vinatieri and Nick Novak, there will be plenty of people scrambling for a good kicker. …
Before we dive into the Week 10 WR rankings, let’s talk about some young players that we could see on the rise in coming weeks. We’re officially into the second half of the season, which means it’s time to start seeing some production out of rookies that struggled early on to the speed of the …
The Week 10 TE rankings are going to be without Fantasy Football studs like Rob Gronkowski and Antonio Gates, along with steady Dwayne Allen and oft-injured-but-talented Jordan Reed. So I thought I’d take a quick look back before we take a short look forward. Rather than just churn out the rankings each week, I usually …
It’s no secret that running backs are the lifeblood of most Fantasy Football teams, and those that went the Zero-Running Back Theory can argue all they want. Our Week 10 RB rankings are the most important rankings, once again, as we enter a six-team bye week. “But the Zero-RB Theory is brilliant,” some may say, …
Man, you picked a bad week for your defense/special teams to go on a bye week! The Week 10 DST rankings show you that any of the likely available Fantasy defenses in your league’s waivers aren’t going to have a great matchup in Week 10. For those that had a DST on a bye week …
Six quarterbacks are coming off of bye weeks and six quarterbacks are going on bye weeks, which means there are difficult decisions to make – and these Week 10 QB rankings prove that to be true. I just wrote my Week 10 Waiver Wire column for SI.com, and I suggested picking up Mark Sanchez, Kyle …
In Fantasy Baseball, catchers are like Adam Sandler movies: “Happy Gilmore,” “Billy Madison” and “The Wedding Singer” are some of the most quoted movies of our generation. Yet, it’s hard to believe “Little Nicky,” “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan” and “Jack and Jill” came from the same mind? And then there are a whole …
Playoffs are on the horizon for seasonal owners, but for those of us who play Daily Fantasy Football it is another week to go discount diving and try to make some moolah! As you have to do when you write posts like this you have to look at the calls in your previous week and …
With six teams on byes this week – the Week 9 Fantasy Football rankings are a little thinner than usual. There are plenty of interesting matchups, as well, including Peyton Manning and Tom Brady going at it again. I was on the road this past week in Atlanta to see family, so time became an …
Ahhh, you’ve accidentally clicked on the Week 8 Kicker rankings once again, while your sausage fingers were trying to click on maybe the tight end rankings? Or the defense/special teams rankings? Never mind, it doesn’t matter now. You’re here, you might as well get comfortable and read up on some kickers! It’s like when you …
Each week, around Tuesday, sometimes Thursday, I go on The Fantasy Funhouse radio show on the SiriusXM Fantasy Sports channel with Nando Di Fino. We talk about TV shows, movies, the ‘80s – and we talk about Fantasy Football. We also take some calls from listeners asking questions about their lineups each week, and the …
A good young running back is like gold in Fantasy Football, since you don’t have to worry about too much mileage on their wheels or getting yanked for a younger player. Our Week 8 RB rankings are stocked with good first- and second-year running backs, and I thought I’d take this week to look at …
The tight ends position hasn’t quite been as exciting this season as in past years, considering the absence of Aaron Hernandez, the retirement of Tony Gonzalez and the injuries to Jimmy Graham and Rob Gronkowski. Julius Thomas, Martellus Bennett and Greg Olsen have been great news from the past couple seasons, but the up-and-down efforts …
[cue game show music] Welcome back for another edition of “The Up or Down Game” with the Week 8 QB Rankings! [cue applause] I’m usually playing this game with my blood pressure whenever I talk to the wife! [cue canned laughter] The way this game works is we look at the current Fantasy quarterback rankings …
The Week 8 DST rankings will be missing both the San Francisco 49ers defense and the less valuable N.Y. Giants defense, as both teams are on byes. The smart owner will look ahead at the available defenses for Weeks 9 and 10, also, to find some matchups to exploit – or matchups to avoid with …
The Thursday night games are over, and what was a surprisingly exciting game leaves with plenty of games, and Daily Fantasy options in this weeks Discount Diving. This week I am spending most of my money on a Quarterback, I will of course list value players for each position like usual so if you want …
Who doesn’t love a great set of Week 7 kicker rankings!?! Look, I know this page comes last on your list for rankings you’re interested in reading about, but it’s a necessary evil! We share some interesting facts and figures about kickers you might never know about had you not landed on this page! We’ll …
The Week 7 WR Rankings are pretty loaded once again, and it seems like you might have some tough decisions to make for either your third wide receiver or your flex position with this week’s matchups. Last week, we shared some interesting numbers that affected Fantasy wide receivers and it seemed to go over pretty …
Sometimes in the middle of the Fantasy season, I like to look back to see which tight ends have popped up out of nowhere to find themselves relevant in our game. These Week 7 TE rankings will have several players that we didn’t care about this past summer. But now, whether it’s due to injury …
We’re just over the halfway mark of the Fantasy Football regular season, so we can take a wide view of what has happened behind us. While the Week 7 RB rankings are certainly important – who doesn’t want to be 7-0!?! – I think we also need to look at the position to see what …
As we enter the one-third mark of the NFL season (and pretty much the halfway mark for the Fantasy Football regular season), we can start to dump the dead weight on our roster and work toward using players that are finally fulfilling potential. As young players start to figure things out, they stop thinking and …
We’re three weeks into the world of bye weeks, which means a lot of us have had to cut defenses we like in order to pick up a defense that’s not on a bye. Our Week 7 DST rankings are just two teams short this week, as the Buccaneers and Eagles will have their bye …
The biggest news for the Week 6 WR rankings came midweek, when A.J. Green re-injured his toe in practice and had to be carted off the field for the Bengals. Cincinnati was already missing Tyler Eifert (elbow) and Marvin Jones (ankle), so Mohamed Sanu suddenly appears to be a player that’s going to see a …
This week, we’re going to look at the “Rest of the Season” rankings from FantasyPros.com, along with our Week 6 Kicker rankings to get a good idea of what Fantasy Football owners should do in the coming weeks, as bye weeks roll along. When we look at “Rest of the Season” rankings for kickers, we …
The good news for Jimmy Graham’s Fantasy owners is that you weren’t going to be able to use him this week in your lineups anyway, since the Saints are on a bye week. So these Week 6 TE rankings don’t change much because of his shoulder injury. However, there is some movement in these rankings, …
Three of the preseason top 25 running backs were injured this past weekend, which makes these Week 6 RB rankings a little thinner than usual. Reggie Bush, Rashad Jennings and Montee Ball all came out of Week 5 a little worse for the wear, which means players like George Winn, Andre Williams and Denver’s Ronnie …
Last week, I was asked to provide my top-five Fantasy quarterbacks for the rest of the season, so I thought I’d share it here before we get into the Week 6 QB rankings. While Andrew Luck has the most Fantasy points, I still considered Peyton Manning to be the top Fantasy QB going forward. He …
Throughout draft prep season, you’re often told to wait on Fantasy DSTs and kickers until late in your drafts. The way things are lining up after five weeks, you would have been much better off if you heeded that advice. While the Week 6 DST rankings should be considered separate from the Fantasy scoring totals …
Another few days of Football is upon us, and with it another chance to get some winning Daily Fantasy Football lineups. After missing a post last week (I do apologize, and hope I helped those who asked on Twitter) I am back and hoping to help you all find a few of those discounted value …
Kickers. They’re like the little 6-year-old brother to the girl you’re dating. Well, I mean, like back when you were a teenager, you really shouldn’t be dating girls with 6-year-old brothers when your 35 years old. Kickers are like little brothers because they have to go with you everywhere, while you’re trying to score with …
One quarter into the season, we find ourselves looking at plenty of star wide receivers limping around, dealing with tough injuries, which makes us deal with a difficult set of Week 5 WR rankings. Are you ready to make some tough decisions? Both Brandon Marshall and Calvin Johnson have been used as decoys recently, and …
The quarterback and tight end positions always seem so full of talent, there are difficult decisions made each week when we do these Week 5 TE Rankings. Who do we leave outside of the top 12? We’re basically saying they’re not start-worthy. That’s not true, of course, because there are tons of different Fantasy formats …
Now that you’re done playing a fullbacks or a scatback in your second running back spot because of the six teams on byes or injuries or bad waiver-wire luck, you can rest a little easier in Week 5, since the Dolphins and Raiders are the only ones resting this week. The Week 5 RB rankings …
With six teams coming off of bye weeks, you’re going to have a lot more choices among the Week 5 DST rankings, as six defenses return to the field – while just the Dolphins and Raiders defenses take a week off on Week 5 byes. The Bengals, Broncos, Browns, Cardinals, Rams and Seahawks are all …
Did you survive Bye-mageddon, as Bob Harris of FootballDiehards.com called it? Six teams had early byes in Week 4, and teams had to scramble to fill their lineups. Our Week 5 QB rankings brings back Peyton Manning and Russell Wilson into the fold. But then again, with two teams on byes this week, so you’ll …
With six NFL teams on byes this week, the Week 4 WR rankings look much more shallow than in the first three weeks of the season. But in reality, this might be one of the deepest 26-team set of wide receiver rankings in Fantasy Football history. Passing is down a little bit in the NFL, …
We officially have to begin dealing with bye weeks in Week 4, which means you’ll likely have to go dumpster diving in the Week 4 kicker rankings to find a suitable starter among the free agents. Lucky for you, kickers are always all over the place to start the season, which is just one of …
Week 3 was great for my Fantasy squads (I know, I know NO ONE CARES) and I was able to get an interrogation of Jennifer Millman from Rotoexperts.com making it even better. I have been a follower of Jen for a while now on Twitter, and of her work on Roto Experts which is top notch. …
Who doesn’t love a great tight end? The Week 4 TE rankings are mixed up just a bit compared to previous weeks, as we have injuries to keep an eye out for and six teams on by weeks. That tends to change the Fantasy tight ends landscape, fo’ sho’. Two players that continue to skyrocket …
Six teams on bye weeks in the very first week of bye weeks? That’s ripping the Band-Aid off with one quick pull! Our Week 4 RB Rankings will definitely show how thin the position is, and how several teams in your league will be scraping the barrel for running backs this week – especially if …
The Week 4 QB Rankings are a little different than the past three weeks. The NFL bye weeks are officially here, so lineup management becomes crucial as we work our way through these next 10 weeks. And now it gets interesting. Fantasy owners will have to decide for themselves which players to cut every single …
To cut or not to cut? That is the question – when six teams go on byes and you have to fill a DST spot on your roster. You’ll look at these Week 4 Defense rankings and you’ll work to get one of the best available options in your Fantasy Football league. But it’s just …
When I go over the Week 3 WR rankings, I look at the most recent week’s action, consider the upcoming opponents, and wonder how all that shakes out with my yearly rankings. So far, it seems like the wide receiver group has been less impressive – at least at the top of the heap – …
Checking out the Week 3 Kicker rankings, eh? Color me impressed! Looking at these rankings is the equivalent of eating a salad without dressing or going swimming at a beach in Canada. This tells me three things about you as a Fantasy owner. You’re a researcher that likes to get multiple opinions in your head …
Unfortunately, these Week 3 RB rankings are all over the place this week, mostly because the position has been hit with waaay more news stories than Fantasy Football owners would prefer. Whether it’s still dealing with the suspension news surrounding Ray Rice and his lawsuit to get reinstated back into the NFL, or the current …
So far, the tight ends position has worked out pretty much the way we all thought it would have. You have a couple studs near the top that are always scoring, and we do have a couple tight ends we thought were middle-of-the-road in Fantasy, who have skyrocketed upwards. We also have a few no-names …
When you look at the Week 3 Defense rankings, understand that you’re also looking at the Week 3 rankings for pretty much all of the Fantasy Football positions. In other words, if you see a defense ranked real high this week, there’s an awfully good chance you’ll find the quarterback, running backs and wide receivers …
All the talk about Fantasy Football being fun is thrown out the door now, as we are officially into the middle season. The Week 3 QB Rankings take into account the pass defenses for 2014, and looking back at 2013 a little farther back in our rearview mirrors. Over the past few weeks, we’ve lost …
With Adrian Peterson out after being arrested on charges of child injury, the Vikings chose to deactivate him. Our job is to figure out what that means for Week 2 Fantasy rankings, so I updated them accordingly. Both Matt Asiata and rookie running back Jerick McKinnon are expected to see a lot more action this …
The Week 2 Kicker rankings are here! The Week 2 Kicker rankings are here! I know, checking these out sometimes makes you feel like The Jerk. There are just 32 kickers to choose from each week, so it’s not rocket surgery trying to figure out who you should take. But we’ll offer a few tips …
When it comes to Daily Fantasy Football each and every week is dramatically different. Players will disappoint in the biggest way (I'm looking at you Jamaal Charles) or exceed all expectations like Allen Hurns (110 yards and 2 touchdowns). Although I owned Hurns in my deep dynasty league and had to play him, I wasn't …
Tight ends, as we’ve mentioned before, are similar to the quarterback position in that there are a lot of pretty good ones. These Week 2 TE rankings will prove that out, too, as you’ll likely see some good ones fall into the 20s one week after the opener. The way tight ends are different than …
We learned an awful lot about the NFL running backs position in Week 1, but we also had just as many new questions arise. Our Week 2 RB Rankings hope to help solve some of those problems for you to either help you get to 2-0 or to help you get your first win … …
Was your league like most Fantasy Football leagues in Week 1, where five of the top six scoring Fantasy Defenses were unowned in the first week of the season? The Vikings, Texans, Titans, Lions and Eagles did their thing as Fantasy free agents, and now you’re wondering – how does this affect Week 2 Defense …
So now you know. Now you know what you thought you knew all preseason. Your knowledge will help you get a win in Week 2, but our Week 2 QB Rankings will be 50-percent offseason knowledge and 50-percent Week 1 knowledge. You knew Carson Palmer was going to have a lot of weapons. You knew …
You've been staring at these unopened gifts for months now, drooling over the prospects of another great Fantasy season. These updated Week 1 Fantasy Football rankings should help set you on your way to success in your Fantasy club's opener. While I won't promise I'll have these by 10:30am ET every Sunday morning, I will …
Listen, I know you’ve been waiting on the Week 1 Kicker rankings, and I promise I hurried as fast as possible. Nothing’s going to kill a Fantasy Football opener more than stinking it up at the kicker position. OK, so maybe I’m overplaying it a bit. But in all seriousness, there has been a lot …
Week 1 is officially here! All that’s left is dominating for 13 weeks, getting a bye week and then storming into your Fantasy league’s championship game – only to lose on an extra point. But still! You had a great year, and it all starts here – with the Week 1 WR Rankings! You’ve heard …
I've often found that you can target players that start slowly because of bad schedules, then get them just before they face much better schedules in the middle part of the season. We're going to examine the best and worst Fantasy Football strength of schedules at quarterback. Consider the tips and bits of advice as …
If there’s one thing we all learned during our 2014 Fantasy Football drafts this summer, it’s that the tight ends position is deeper than ever. If you didn’t draft one of the studs, you likely found yourself picking through some very good tight ends, wondering which one will serve you best. In our Week 1 …
Filling out your lineups for Week 1 can be a little tricky – especially at running back. Our Week 1 RB Rankings should help you lock the position down for the NFL Kickoff weekend. One of the tricky parts about the first week is that some of your RB1s and RB2s didn’t get a lot …
While knowing who the best quarterback to play this week or which running backs you should choose is always important, knowing the matchups for defense/special teams is also important. Our Week 1 Defense rankings take into account many different factors. We look at the opponents, obviously, and not only how strong and healthy that offense …
The first week of the NFL season is like a present someone just handed you. There’s no doubt it’s going to be awesome, but will you get exactly what you were hoping for? Our Week 1 QB rankings will help guide you through the first week’s signal-callers. Since most teams only draft one quarterback, it’s …
As we dig into the 2014 Quarterback Rankings for the upcoming season, we’re always reminded of the fact that the NFL has not just become more of a passing game, but they’ve officially hit the turbo button. We’re seeing passing efforts like we’ve never seen before, and it doesn’t look like there’s a slowdown in …
Every draft season, this is one of the most popular pages on my site. The 2014 Fantasy Running Back rankings shouldn’t be any different, as most people believe that running backs are the lifeblood of any championship squad. Sure, you’ll hear arguments that in this day and age, with the NFL leaning more and more …
As I post my 2014 Fantasy Wide Receiver rankings, I think back to the late ‘80s and most of the ‘90s, when 49ers legend Jerry Rice was one of the greatest Fantasy players ever. I don’t just mean he was a great Fantasy pick at wide receiver, I mean he was one of the best …
Are you willing to use a first-round pick on tight end Jimmy Graham? My 2014 Tight End rankings indicate there are several tough questions like this you’ll have to answer. More tough questions include, “Are you willing to use a second- or third-round pick on Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski, who missed time last season with …
Listen, don’t feel bad that you’re checking out our 2014 Fantasy Kicker rankings. At some point, everyone has to take a look to see who will end up being your team’s last pick of the day. It probably makes you feel like you’re wasting your time, but still, this guy is going to take up …
I recently discussed the 2014 Fantasy Defense Rankings in an upcoming column over at SI.com, and now it’s time to share it with my readers on my site. We’ve watched the Seahawks defense wreak havoc over the Fantasy Football world for the past two seasons, and that unit enters 2014 as the top-ranked defense/special teams …
Over the past couple decades, Fantasy Football users have been on their own on Draft Day, but not now – with this handful of 2014 Fantasy Football Draft Apps for the iPad in your hand. The days of just using a cheat sheet ripped out of an old magazine are officially over. As a matter …

Their podcast is awesome and entertaining so if you are in need of another podcast be sure to check it …
This is a new series I’ve decided to start writing because I’m a bitter, jealous man. I hate that these sites had owners that were much smarter than me. So I explain to readers why I’m so jealous of them! Makes sense! I plan to review websites, iPhone apps, draft tools and in-season tools. Essentially, …
Without further ado I present to you my 2014 Positional Tiers.

It is officially draft season folks, and that means it is time for some draft strategy. I always enjoy digging in to player rankings, compiling spreadsheets, and discussing players ADP and hype on Twitter this time of year. I obviously am not alone, but maybe some of you need a little nudge or kick in …
After a busy week, a few technical difficulties and a blunder on my part I have returned with another Interrogate the Industry. This week I am featuring none other than Zach Law. Someone who has been doing a similar concept to this series, for far longer than myself. Disclaimer: I actually did not know of …
It has been an insane week in personal life and of course my fantasy life, but never too busy for another Interrogate the Industry article. I had to take a week off last week, due to deadlines of Fantasy Football guides, T-Ball games, work and more, well....life stuff I suppose. Either way it is great …

As I write this weeks Interrogate the Industry there is news of even more pitching injuries. This season has been disastrous for many teams, and Fantasy owners. On the bright side, there is always a bright side with me, several pitchers are coming back too, or coming back in to form such as Cole Hamels, Alex …
The 2014 NFL draft is nearly on top of us, which means Fantasy Football owners are going nuts as they get ready to redo their rankings in anticipation of what this class of rookies will bring to each team. Let's fill out some free NFL mock draft contests, so we can win stuff! We've been …
With the NFL Draft finally here, I thought it would be a good idea to look at the top 60 Fantasy Football players before we have an influx of the Class of 2014 onto the rosters. There doesn’t appear to be a lot of rookies that will find their way into the first five rounds …
Over the past four months, I’ve been scrambling around with my hands in a number of projects, which has really inhibited my ability to write and update for my own site. That stops today, just one month after celebrating my site's two-year anniversary! Well, it doesn’t “stop” so much as it just “changes,” as most …
When taking a closer look at our 2014 Relief Pitcher Rankings we need to keep a few things in mind. If there is one thing I have learned, especially over the past three seasons is that Closers are valuable in Fantasy Baseball, however they are also the most implosive position in baseball. Closers lose their …
You must be drafting this weekend if you are looking at our 2014 Third Base Rankings just now. Although Draft season is nearly over, it happens to be what is oft-referred to as "Draft Weekend. This means many owners are cramming for their only, or final drafts of the season now. Third base is what …
After receiving some great responses from the 30-For-30 series at davidgonos.com from readers, and writers alike it was decided to form the Gonos 30-for-30 league. It would be be filled with 12 contributors to the series, including myself representing the site. It is a Rotisserie League which is 5x5 with standard scoring (Average, HR, RBI, Runs, …
Out of all the positional rankings this season, the 2014 Fantasy First Base rankings may actually be the deepest. Sure, Starting Pitching is still deep, and has plenty of young, high potential arms to fill out your squads, but it has been a while since Fantasy Baseball has had this many strong options at first …
Welcome to your 2014 Arizona Diamondbacks Fantasy Baseball preview! While 2013 was a down year, from a Fantasy perspective, for many D-backs not named Paul Goldschmidt at least, who finished second in NL MVP voting behind his huge year. But 2014 provides an opportunity for a turnaround for some of their disappointing outputs. It has been …
The Pittsburgh Pirates finally rose from the depths of obscurity in 2013 by making the playoffs for the first time since 1992. "Pirate Fever" ran wild through the Steel City as the organization shared a glimpse of what the future likely holds for a ballclub that has one of the deepest minor league systems in …
For the third straight year, the Detroit Tigers advanced to the ALCS -- this time losing to the Boston Red Sox. They did this with the strength of their rotation, (156 GS by the top five and an AL record 1,428 strikeouts) and some lineup thump from Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder. The Tigers made …
After suffering through baseball’s worst record from 2011–2013, the Astros and their fan base need something to look forward to. During the past three years, they are 118 games worse by record than baseball's best team, the Texas Rangers (280-206). To make matters worse, the Astros are 33 games worse over this time frame than …
The 2014 Cleveland Indians have potential in several areas, although most of their players will come off the draft boards a little later on Draft Day. There are, of course, a few above average players, like Jason Kipnis and Carlos Santana, but for the most part, the remainder of the team will be lineup fillers …
What a difference a year makes. Last year at this time, the Royals were on a lot of sleeper lists as the team to watch out for. Armed with a young nucleus, whose lineup was potentially lethal, the team seemed to be just a few pitchers away from becoming serious contenders. When the Royals traded …
Last week, I got a digital copy of my favorite Fantasy Baseball magazine, “The Fantasy Baseball Guide 2014" and once again, I come away incredibly impressed. As I've mentioned in the past, like an old character actor dropping names at a party, I worked on several Fantasy Baseball magazines in my 14 years writing about …
The new mock draft simulator is out! The new mock draft simulator is out! Finally, after several offseason months, the Draft Wizard Mock Draft simulator is here! And now we can all run our own Fantasy Baseball mock drafts to see where different positions get thin, and where the experts think we should draft someone. …
Before we get into the 2014 Boston Red Sox, let's look back at last season. You don’t win the World Series without ample talent, and the 2013 Boston Red Sox were no exception. Their championship roster was anchored by the only offense to surpass 800 runs (853), and they scored 7.2% more runs than Detroit’s …
Welcome to the 2014 Texas Rangers Preview! Last year could only be described as a disappointment for Texas Rangers’ Fantasy Baseball fans, as they went from No. 1 in team batting in 2012 to No. 8 last year. However, not all was lost as Yu Darvish finished as the AL runner-up in the Cy Young …
This is the first in an ongoing series of 2014 Profiles. I will be looking closer at MLB's top propects who will have a real Fantasy impact on the 2014 season. We are starting with Tigers' top prospect Nick Castellanos. Enjoy, and feel free to comment below, or even request more Prospects as well. There …
The 2014 RB rankings look deeper than in recent years, but, unfortunately, that's only because there are a lot of veteran running backs that are slowly creeping backwards from 2012 and 2013. Although, I have eight different running backs getting drafted in Round 1 in my early 2014 Fantasy Football Mock Draft. The average shelf …
It is time for the Fantasy playoffs and it is no time to joke around. Make sure your playoff run keeps on going by taking a look into every Week 14 Fantasy Football matchup. Many times, your lineup decisions come down to one or two big decisions, so we hope this weekly preview will help …
As I sat down and cranked out these Week 1 lineup rankings I shed a tear. I openly wept for the demise of my offseason rankings, where I dug deep, churned and stressed over. I cried for the multitudes of mock drafts that are meaningless now. I was sullen over the fact that – I …
Eric Mack is writing his start/sit column for BleacherReport.com, and I'm writing the Week 1 Start or Sit column for SI.com this season. We both discuss ,with host Brett Tresky, each of the upcoming Week 1 NFL matchups from a Fantasy perspective. Emack and Tresky also share their pick for the best survivor pick for …
If you’re checking out the Top 200 Fantasy Football 2013 PPR Rankings, then know that I have much respect for you. This means a lot -- and you should be proud. You are an evolved Fantasy species! By reading these 2013 PPR Rankings, you’re telling me that you are one of the 28 percent of Fantasy Football …
These 2013 Fantasy Football Rankings go 200 players deep, but you need to understand that a Fantasy owner should consider his own team needs from the top 60 or so players, rather than just go with the top-ranked player in these rankings. Or else -- you'll end up with like four quarterbacks. Once an owner …
While many think of PPR wide receiver rankings as essentially the same rankings as non-PPR leagues, there are obviously some subtle differences. In the past, we’d just aim for the slot receivers that were pulled as the team got in scoring position for an extra tight end. Or we’d target players that were on low-scoring …
In every 10 Fantasy Football leagues, about three of them play in PPR leagues. For that 30 percent, getting good PPR running back rankings is essential! We aim to please this summer, as we take a look at the best PPR running backs in Fantasy. Near the end of the ‘90s, people began to understand …
Do the 2013 Fantasy Running Back Rankings even matter anymore? I mean, we've beaten you over the head recently with quotes on passing statistics, and how the NFL had a record 11 quarterbacks with over 4,000 passing yards last season. So obviously, running backs are about as useful as a Fantasy writer and skinny jeans. …
Fantasy owners in PPR leagues don’t normally change their opinions, too much when they look at 2013 Fantasy Football Tight End PPR Rankings. Or at least, they don’t change their standard rankings as much as PPR Running Back Rankings or PPR Wide Receiver Rankings. Basically, when adjusting your standard rankings to PPR rankings for tight …
As you’ve no doubt been reading over the past few months, the NFL has turned into a mega-passing league, which spills over into the 2013 Fantasy Wide Receiver Rankings. But unlike the quarterbacks position, this vertical explosion has given the wide receiver position depth in the Fantasy third and fourth strings. While the top quarterbacks …
The 2013 Fantasy Tight End Rankings are full of questions and potential and possible disappointment. You have incredible amounts of talent near the top, mixed with plenty of pitfalls and opportunities for busts. NFL offenses have become more prolific in the air than ever before, with 16 different quarterbacks throwing 500 or more pass attempts …
There are a few things you should always keep in mind when you start to look at 2013 Fantasy Defense rankings on any site. Scoring systems, more than any other position, affect the rankings of defense/special teams greatly. As a matter of fact, some scoring systems don’t even use special teams in their scoring, or …
Fantasy rankings are an odd bird, to say the least. There are owners that rely on them and owners that totally dismiss them, claiming that rankings are simply information from the past...Not a picture of what players are going to do, which is what we really need to know. Let's be honest about something else …
You can only take in so many pieces of advice when preparing for your draft, so I thought I'd come up with some last-second Fantasy tips to confuse your mind further. Actually, did you know that during a speech, orators are told that listeners generally remember THREE things during that talk, so they try to …
I've been talking about how awesome the DraftWizard Mock Draft Simulator is, but one thing I haven't really highlighted yet is the Keeper Mock Draft Simulator part. I'm in several keeper drafts, three of which draft this week! So I've been doing a few mocks on this tool this week. What's cool is, you can …
Last year was a great season for rookie NFL players. I can't remember a season when so many rookies impacted Fantasy Football leagues. It certainly sets up for more great production from Fantasy Football sophomores for 2013. If you only listen to the talking heads, you would think that the quarterback play of last year's …
The Quarterback position is DEEP! But, is rolling with a Quarterback by Committee a realistic fantasy option? But I digressing. I went wild Saturday night. My wife was bartending, I was home with the kids and splurged. I entered an APEX Fantasy Money League. The draft was at 6pm my time, which meant it was …
This is the second of a two-piece article to help Fantasy owners find breakout players this upcoming season. This article will be about young Fantasy breakout players who I expect to emerge from the middle of the positional rankings. The other article was about veteran Fantasy values who are primed to rebound and have breakout …
The stock market is a lot like Fantasy Football. When a player’s value is at their lowest, it’s wise to invest in that stock, especially one that has nothing to lose. I have formulated a list of veterans that I believe are Fantasy value plays and whose stocks are relatively low. Some of these players …
Have you decided to dabble on the Dark Side and venture into IDP Fantasy Football? If so, here are your 2013 IDP Rankings, done by position and with a complete 195 Player Overall list. It is a tough go in these IDP Leagues though friends, there really isn't a set standard scoring system and with …
I formulated a list in which I believe is crucial in winning your Fantasy draft. Some of these techniques and suggestions may be obvious or bizarre, but I believe it is a set of rules to help guide any Fantasy Football owner to success. With my analysis from past seasons and noted tendencies, I’ve taken …
The NFL Draft is behind us, training camps are around the corner, and now we can step back and look at rankings for the top NFL Fantasy Football Rookies for 2013. Last year's set of rookies was one of the best in NFL history, so it's going to be interesting to see what this group …
Checking the 2013 Fantasy Football Rookie RB Rankings is always a good idea, especially throughout training camp. Unfortunately, most Fantasy Football owners will be looking for a player like Doug Martin and Trent Richardson, only to be disappointed they took a rookie runner higher than the third round in their draft. It’s true, last year’s …
Nearly every year, we end up hearing a lot of hype surrounding some rookie tight end. This year, however, the 2013 Fantasy Football Rookie Tight End rankings are topped off by a player that is joining a team with a pretty good pass-catching tight end already. More on him in a bit! Last year, we …
Let’s figure out the best draft spot! One of the great features of using the Draft Wizard by FantasyPros.com is that you can not only mock for free – but you can mock to your heart’s content! So I decided to do 12 different Fantasy Football mock drafts this morning, and using their post-draft analytics, …
Some argue whether a Fantasy Football mock draft will help multiple people figure out what to expect in their upcoming drafts, but I don’t think anyone will argue how helpful doing a mock draft yourself really is. It’s one of the only exercises in the world that people just flat out enjoy. If only mock …
Over the past decade or so, we’ve seen some great wide receivers, especially compared to the couple decades that preceded them. That means the 2013 Fantasy Wide Receiver Keeper rankings have a little more weight to them than they did 15 years ago. With PPR, FLEX and 3-WR leagues sprouting up everywhere, this position has …
Doing up a set of Fantasy Quarterback Keeper rankings is always a fun exercise. You no longer see has-beens and old vets that should be put out to pasture, and instead you see promise in young quarterbacks, hoping they’ll fulfill their potential after being high draft picks. Then again, you also get cynical and you …
A few months ago, after a softball game and during several beers at Maguires, our local pub, SI.com’s Eric Mack and I started talking about doing a Fantasy podcast together. After months of putting it off, thinking we’d never get our act together, and thousands of chicken wings, we finally held our first “Fantasy Fatcast” …
Depending on how many players you’re allowed to keep in your league, you might be considering these 2013 Fantasy Tight End keeper rankings a little harder. (I already took a look at the QB Keepers, RB Keepers and WR Keepers.) In general, if you are only allowed two or three keepers, then unless you have …
There is no more important position for keeper leagues than running backs, and these 2013 Fantasy Running Back Keeper Rankings should be the most important set of rankings you read on this site. My god, man, your Fantasy life depends on it! (Earlier this week, we previewed the 2013 Fantasy Quarterback Keepers.) First, though, I …
Most Fantasy Strength of Schedule (SOS) rankings utilize data points from the previous seasons defensive fantasy points allowed to determine who will have the easy or hard schedule in the upcoming season. This gives you a decent baseline, but obviously you need to apply some human intervention to the purely stat-based rankings to come up …
There are all kinds of strategies to assembling a fantasy football team, but an approach I seem to find myself sticking to across all fantasy sports is ensuring to balance my high risk picks with what I consider safe and reliable options. For the purpose of this 2013 Fantasy Football All-Risk Team, players who aren't projected …
Free Fantasy Football draft tools are my favorite kinds of Fantasy Football draft tools. I've been playing this game for over 20 years, in an estimated 110 different drafts –- and my opponents are smarter than ever before. You have to stay ahead of the competition, and these tools are meant to help you do …
In an effort to come up with starting pitcher rankings that have a more predictive than descriptive value, I looked to implement a more meaningful metric in player rater evaluation than ERA—xFIP. For those of you that don’t know, xFIP is an offspring of FIP—fielding independent pitching—that was developed in the fashion of DIPs theory. …
Everyone wants to find the best Fantasy Football rankings. There may be no greater task than compiling your own rankings -- it is tough stuff man. As I've been plugging away on my rankings recently, I thought it'd be a good idea to go out on the road -- or surf the net, if you're …
We're continuing our series on injured players you need to know about this offseason, and now we're at the injured wide receivers installment. We've already covered the injured quarterbacks and running backs, so let's dig right in and check out the injured wide receivers to worry about in the summer of 2013. This is just …
This fourth installment of the legend of the 3rd year wide receiver breakout looks at a 3rd year wide receiver to avoid in your fantasy football drafts and auctions this draft season. We've already gone through 15 of the best 3rd year wide receiver seasons of recent memory, highlighted the big three 3rd year wide receivers …
This third installment of the legend of the 3rd year wide receiver breakout looks at 3 prime breakout targets to consider in your fantasy football drafts and auctions. We've already gone through 15 of the best 3rd year wide receiver seasons of recent memory and highlighted the big three 3rd year wide receivers in 2013. …
My, oh my, Fantasy Football sure has gotten fancy! Gone are the legal pads and magazines, and here come the iPads and laptops. Welcome to my list of the Best Fantasy Football Draft iPad Apps!
This past season was a story of big successes and big failures (Larry Fitzgerald's owners need no reminders) by many wide receivers. The 2013 WR Rankings reflect my reactions to the amazing/horrible seasons that some of these guys had. With many leagues now requiring three starting wide receivers or using flex spots, the wide receiver …
My first attempt at doing my 2013 Fantasy Football QB Rankings is interesting. There are several situations that have me a little unsure about locking in my 2013 quarterback rankings. If I were to draft in January, and then again in August, I have a pretty good feeling my rankings will be much different at …
Looking at 2013 Fantasy Football rankings when the 2012 Fantasy season is barely cold is kind of like asking out a hot chick just days after you got dumped by some other hot chick. (Then again, if you won your league, then looking at the Fantasy Football 2013 rankings is more like doubling down and …
Is there a more troublesome page on a Fantasy Baseball website this year than the 2013 Fantasy Baseball Reliever Rankings. I didn’t think so. (Or maybe the page that says Send Us Money! Those are troublesome, too.) But here we are – checking out who we think are the best Fantasy Relievers, which usually indicate …
Why are these 2013 Fantasy Baseball SP Rankings so important to Fantasy owners? Well, starting pitchers affect four separate categories, and usually are responsible for your ranking in each of those categories. With 14 hitters in your lineup, one or two hitters aren’t going to pace the rest of your team in four categories. But …
When compiling my 2013 Fantasy Baseball Player Rankings, I struggled with many small decisions, and battled with many overall themes. And it dawned on me that these rankings may indicate where a player sits on a ladder, with the very best at the top, and one player below them on every rung, and so on. …
There are few positions where more is expected in Fantasy Baseball play than first base. These 2013 Fantasy Baseball First Base Rankings are chock full of excellent power hitters, many of which are also able to hit for average and drive in runs. In 2012, the first base position saw nine 30-home run hitters (two …
You can consider the 2013 Fantasy Baseball Third Base Rankings as Miguel Cabrera and everyone else. Miggy is considered a top-three pick in all Fantasy formats, coming off the first Triple Crown season in over 40 years. The former third baseman-turned-first baseman moved back across the diamond to make room for Prince Fielder, and he …
These 2013 Fantasy Baseball Catcher Rankings get me a little excited. The position itself is one of the most interesting in all of sports. A baseball catcher has to know offense, defense and pitching. They’re the only position player that faces the entire field. They’re one of the most important players on the team – …
When looking at 2013 Fantasy Baseball DH Rankings across theInternet, you might find several spots that literally rank the designated hitters in the America League. In other words, they give you each team’s DH, and rank them from a Fantasy perspective. That’s dumb. Here’s why – most designated hitters are eligible to play at one …
The 2013 Fantasy Baseball SS Rankings are important to your Fantasy team – but not the most important. You’ll want to bulk up on corner infielders with power and slugging corner outfielders and speedy center fielders. The middle infielders generally give you little in the power categories, and are so-so in the speed categories. You’d …
These 2013 Fantasy Baseball 2B Rankings might save your life someday. OK, well, maybe not really. But they could be important for the life of your Fantasy Baseball team as you enter the 2013 season. And normally, second base is considered one of the weakest positions in the game. It wasn’t too long ago (well, …
Every season, Fantasy Baseball owners get super excited about the incoming crop of rookies – and the returning group of Fantasy Baseball sophomores are quietly placed in the toy bin with everything else. Fantasy writers, however, are usually more excited about sophomores (check auction prices in LABR and Tout Wars in any given year). I …
From a Fantasy Football standpoint, 2012 was an up year for running backs! These 2013 Fantasy Football RB Rankings are obviously somewhat based on what running backs did this past season. Just like the 2011 season affected the 2012 running back rankings. I know it sounds like I’m talking in circles – but stick with …
Since the end of the 2012 season, Fantasy Baseball owners have been reeling over just how great a season Angels center fielder had. And since last summer, people have been talking about him as a possible No. 1 overall pick in 2013 Fantasy Baseball leagues. While some are taking him that high right now, most …
This exercise of writing the 2013 Fantasy Football Defense Rankings is a little tougher than all of the other sets of rankings we’ve done since the NFL regular season ended. Since a DST includes an entire defensive unit, along with all of the units on special teams, it’s a completely different animal than the singular …
Man, you really love Fantasy Football if you’re checking out the 2013 Fantasy Football Kicker Rankings this early! Good for you! Unfortunately, this is the one Fantasy position that can change the most from year to year, with superstars dominating one year and becoming afterthoughts the next. (UPDATE: You can find our latest 2013 Fantasy …
It wasn’t long ago that the tight end position was considered super-deep with stars aplenty. But here we are, looking at the 2013 Fantasy Football Tight End Rankings, and we realize that many of the stars have faded quite a bit. Does that mean you can still invest a high draft pick in a tight …
On January 9, I got a group email from Cory Schwartz of MLB.com asking if we wanted to join a 15-team 2013 Fantasy Baseball Mock Draft (mixed league, Rotisserie, 5x5). Of course, I said, “Uhh yeah!” as did the rest of the group, and the draft started within an hour. It’s a slow email draft, …
I’d like to start a new thing, where each week, I post my three favorite sports videos for your viewing enjoyment! It really has nothing to do with Fantasy Football or Fantasy Baseball. (If you want that today, check out my 2013 Fantasy Football Rankings and my 2013 Fantasy Baseball Rankings!) TOM BRADY FOUND FIDO! …
It’s appropriate we’re about to review the Fantasy Football rookies for 2012 in early January of 2013. It’s kind of like when you look back at whatever gifts you got last month, and you assess which ones were winners (authentic NFL helmet signed by Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson) and the which ones were losers …
Thirteen years ago, I started a Fantasy Sports website called, FantasyRef.com, then I sold it a couple years later in order to join the Fantasy staff at CBSSports.com. After writing there for five years, I joined a start-up site called OpenSports.com, where I worked a few more years. When it fell in late 2010, I …
Running backs are your lifeblood in the Fantasy Football playoffs and since you are either in your championship game or in the final four, you need to confirm your lineup with our Week 16 Fantasy Football RB Rankings. Sure, kickers and defenses are valuable too, yadayadayada. But it's your running backs that you want to …
You're ohhhhhh so close to sitting atop your Fantasy league as the 2012 champion. You're either in the Fantasy Football championship game or you are at least in the Final Four. I guess there's even a possibility you're playing for third place in a consolation game, like I am in one league .... Stupid Dennis …
Heading either into the second round of your playoffs, or into the first week of your playoffs (still doing the Week 17 championship thing, eh?), these are the days that Fantasy Football owners begin to wish they drafted a stud running back in the first round. Many of them still pepper the upper tier of …
Did the injury to Robert Griffin III or Dez Bryant or Percy Harvin ruin your prospects for winning a playoff game in Week 15!?! Let's hope not. Hopefully, you are checking out the Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings from several different sites. It's always good to get several opinions from people you trust. Also, remember …
The most important weeks of your Fantasy Football lives are happening right now! ... Am I overselling this? From here on out, it's a do or die! It's one and done! It's win or go home! Sooo what I'm getting at is -- we're ready for the playoffs! Running backs are settling down, at least …
It’s Week 14 and you are either preparing for the playoffs, preparing to get into a Week 17-championship set of playoffs, or you are reading for fun while sitting on a bye week! It’s highly doubtful there’s anyone reading this that has already been eliminated for the playoffs … Let’s talk about them! Juuuust kidding. …
A real football general manager has several assistants helping him. Heck, they have a whole front office of people trying to manage everything about the team and its players. CBSSports Fantasy Football apps offer you that same type of assistance, with several great tools that can help push your team over the top. And you know I’m …
What an amazing season turned in by Saints TE Jimmy Graham!?! He caught a position-high 99 passes for 1,310 yards, with 11 touchdowns, and an incredible 197 points! He scored more Fantasy points than any other tight end in NFL history, and he has to rank as the best at his position in the 2012 …
Generally, the top 60 overall Fantasy rankings should be a great guide to help you along your first few rounds. Some might want to stick to these rankings by the book, but my suggestion is that you look at them more in a fluid sense, and go off the position rankings more than just the …
When assembling the 2012 Fantasy Running Back Rankings recently, it dawned on me that we’re in a weird era. We don’t have an unquestioned No. 1 guy that has been atop the rankings for three years or so, like we did in the ‘90s with Emmitt Smith and Terrell Davis, or in the ‘00s with …
Before the season begins, TradeDebate.com examined all 32 teams Fantasy potential, and ranked them according to their expected Fantasy output. These Fantasy power rankings are based on the rewards that the team as a whole will give the owners of whom they have drafted players. The first half of teams examines the bottom half of …
The passing game has taken over the Fantasy Football world, and the 2012 Fantasy Wide Receiver Rankings should show it. But here’s the thing – it still shouldn’t change much in how you should approach your Fantasy draft. While quarterbacks are blowing up, throwing for more yardage and more touchdown passes, the wide receiver position …
It's safe to say that the 2012 Fantasy quarterback rankings have never looked as strong as they are this year. It's very likely that you're going to see TWO quarterbacks taken in the first round of your draft, and then see three more quarterbacks taken in the second round. We're coming off of the most …
Fanatics. That's what I like to refer to Fantasy Football owners that choose to play in leagues that use Individual Defensive Players (IDP). They are fanatics. So these 2012 IDP Rankings are really for them. But regular Fantasy Football owners can glean some things from these rankings too. It's easy to see that running backs …
Matt Kemp was the April champ, with Josh Hamilton owning the month of May, but who's the man in June in our Fantasy Baseball rankings redraft? You have to love what Carlos Gonzalez has done over the past two weeks. He has six homers with 11 RBI and a .391 batting average. And he hasn't …
