Fantasy Football Tips from a Fantasy Pro – Part 1

The following are some fantasy football tips that I have learned over the years; which have helped me win several Games, a Championship, and finish at the top of several leagues. These tips are primarily aimed at PPR leagues, but if you’re in a standard league, they can help you too. Whether you’re new to Fantasy Football or a seasoned veteran, I’m sure there’s something here for you.

Here are his fantasy football tips

Tip #1 – It’s all about the matchups, especially when it comes time for the playoffs. This is one of the tips I had to learn the hard way.

Several years ago I went UNDEFEATED for an entire season and made it to the Championship. He had the BEST ROSTER and better players, BUT the other had a GOOD ROSTER with GREAT matchups. By matchups I mean his players had an easier playoff schedule than mine. They played weaker defenses that couldn’t defend their players’ offensive positions as well. So his guys literally left and mine didn’t show up; Mainly because of the matchups and tip #2, which is…

Fantasy Football Tips #2 – Watch out for TIME! This is another tip I learned the VERY PAINFUL way. During this same championship game I had Tom Brady, Randy Moss, and probably at least one other player on my roster who was playing a literal Blizzard. SERIOUSLY. This was the year that Brady and Moss broke TD records and the Pats nearly went undefeated… You know, Brady is throwing 2-3 TDs a game and Moss is catching 1 TD a game with 100+ receiving yards.

Well, that day, I don’t think Brady threw a TD and Moss probably only had a couple of catches. It was brutal. So now, when I look at the NFL schedule, I look for studs that play in good weather or domes at the end of the year…in case the TIME bug shows up and kills my team.

Tip #3 – Fantasy Football Tips #3 are comparable to Fantasy Football Tips #1. Draft with the Playoffs in mind. Now nothing is 100%, because the NFL changes every year. But I’ll go to NFL.com or ESPN.com and look at TEAM STATS from previous years. You can highlight the “Scores and Stats” tab and then go to “Team Stats”. You can access all of this at NFL.com.
