RazzBlitz Podcast: Position Battles Galore

Hello everyone! We are back with another episode of the Razzblitz podcast, this time with new full-time member Uncle Daddy Tehol Beddict as we all discuss some news around the league, such as the possible suspension of Ezekiel Elliott, rumors of players going to new destinations, and the mess that is the Washington backfield. Then we dive into position battles to keep an eye out for these next few weeks in Training Camp, before wrapping it out with some great news about the site (Spoiler Alert: Jay finished Top-3 in 2016 Draft Rankings! Three cheers!). Enjoy!

2017 Fantasy Football Team Name Generator

We are approaching the beginning of the Fantasy Football preseason. SURPRISE! And as it usually goes, there are Fantasy Football Rankings all over the place and everything else like strategy, auction values, projections, etc. will be falling into place soon… except for one big thing (that’s what she said). Your potential team name remains the one true mystery that must be solved! Be the Sherlock of your league. Don’t be the Dr. Watson. I mean, do be a doctor if you can, that seems like an admirable profession that pays well. More like: don’t be the “Watson” part. Actually, you know what? Being Martin Freeman isn’t that bad either, since he received millions to star in a plethora of The Hobbit movies with a guy who wears spandex and ping-pong balls as a living. So, actually, you can be both those guys AND have an amazing team name. That’s what I’m trying to say. I think…

2017 Fantasy Football Rankings: Running Backs (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR)

2017 Rankings: Top 200 (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR) | QB | RB (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR) | WR (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR) | TE (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR) | K | DST

IDP Rankings: Top 100 | DL | LB | DB

Dynasty Rankings: Top 200 | QB | RB | WR | TE | Top-50 Rookies

2016 Accuracy	Rank	QB	RB	WR	TE	K	DST
Weekly Rankings	9	31	5	27	40	9	4
Draft Rankings	3	66	10	7	23	66	112

Even though I’m not one to pat myself on the back (actually, I am), Razzball has been on an upward curve, bringing some sort of conglomerate synergistic metamorphosis (as they say in the corporate world), providing you an ever-improving ranking accuracy year after year. How do we do it? No clue. It could be dark wizardry. It could be indigestion. It could even be your mother. But I have to admit, this year is going to be daunting, if only because the expectations we’ve placed on ourselves here at Razzball Football are at an all time high (just like my college years). Going from 31st overall to 22nd in Weekly Fantasy Football accuracy is one thing. But going from 22nd to the top-10 in the entire nation last season is quite another. And then on top of that, to finish third overall in our Draft Rankings last year… well, it’d be folly to try and say “Yes, we’re going to try even more, (more better if you believe in remedial English)”, but yeah, I’m going to say it… We’re going to do more better. (My English teacher just placed a bounty on me.) With that said, and my parentheses key broken, here are your 2017 Fantasy Football Running Back (Standard, Half-PPR, PPR) Rankings…

2017 Fantasy Football NFC East Preview

July 24, 2017 | 2017 Division Previews, 2017 Fantasy Football |

by: MB

Along with the two sophomore quarterbacks that are sparking a lot of Fantasy Football interest, there were a few free-agent moves that are going to shake things up as we build our rosters in August. We have a few new veteran receivers in this division and a veteran name at running back that’s going to make the Philadelphia backfield situation confusing. Also, there’s a rookie running back in Washington who is looking to take a chunk out of the backfield work. I’m going to quit burying the lead and get the damn thing started.

Before we get into the NFC East, I want to take a paragraph and congratulate Jay, Grey, and Rudy for their Top-3 (TOP EFFING THREE!) finish in Fantasy Football draft rankings for FantasyPros last season. These guys have been at it for years making Razzball not only one of the best fantasy baseball sites, but also one of the best fantasy football sites. Keep telling your friends about us, the results from our content speaks volumes when you see stuff like this.

RazzBlitz Podcast: Rankings and Thrones with Jay and Tehol!

July 21, 2017 | 2017 Fantasy Football, 2017 Podcast, Fantasy Football Podcast | 9 Comments

by: MB

Rejoice, for Jay has broken months of podcast silence to discuss his rankings and Razzball’s favorite show… GAME OF THRONES!

Tehol questions why I question Jay’s rankings, but I don’t. I just want to learn how to be a top-10 Fantasy Football ranker in the country (top-20 the past two years). We talk Drew Brees, Kirk Cousins, Kelvin Benjamin, Jordy Nelson, and O.J. Howard with Tehol chiming in with his clever wit and boyish charm.

As we are obligated to do, we spend a few minutes on the O.J. Simpson infatuation that hasn’t stopped sweeping the nation for 25-ish years. Then we get to the good stuff… Sansa vs. Jon Snow, mispronouncing Ed Shereen’s name, and what the future holds for one of the best shows on television.

My apologies for my cat screaming in the background. He is, in fact, not abused, he just really hates our new puppy and wants the world to know. What would a Razzball podcast be without a little #productionvalue?

Underrated: I Bet You’ve Got A Lot Of Nice Ties, Ty

July 20, 2017 | 2017 Fantasy Football, Fantasy Football Buy/Sell | 8 Comments

by: benk

Green Bay Packers starting running back Ty Montgomery, a converted slot-receiver selected in the 3rd round of the 2015 NFL Draft, certainly doesn’t have the body-type, resume, and hype of a NFL workhorse running back. However, Montgomery’s rare blend of elite rushing vision and smooth receiving abilities make him the perfect running back in Green Bay’s offense, a scheme centered around short, high-percentage passes that serve as a proxy running game. Montgomery punctuated his breakout campaign with 121 combined touches for 805 yards and 3 touchdowns after he took the reigns as the starting running back for injured Eddie Lacy in Week 6 of 2016.

Overrated: Don’t Digg Yourself Into a Hole

July 18, 2017 | 2017 Buy/Sell, 2017 Fantasy Football |

by: MB

Wide receiver is a tough position to draft outside of the top 15. Within the next 35 players of the preseason top 50, there are 10 guys who are going to outplay their ADP, maybe by a lot. There are also 10 other receivers getting hype, who just don’t live up to it, whether they are a complete bust or just somebody who frustrates you to put into your lineup every week. I’ve been there, I drafted Kelvin Benjamin and Sammy Watkins on the same team last season. This league is a two-keeper league and my keepers were ho-hum going into the draft, and I knew that I had to make a splash. Doug Martin and Brandin Cooks were career hit or miss guys so I went high upside with my first couple of picks…

Overrated: The Christian Right

by: Zach

Hello everyone, and welcome to the start of my player analysis series (you can find MB’s first post here) where I take a look at a crap-ton of NFL players and sort them into three categories: Underrated, Overrated, and Sleepers. So let’s get started talking about a rookie player who I believe has the greatest chance of anyone this year to become a player that started with all hype, but might have little production on the field during his rookie campaign. I am of course talking about Christian McCaffrey. Let’s get right to it!
