Jorden Hill's Bold Predictions For The 2022 Fantasy Football Season
Sure, coming up with actual projections and rankings for your fantasy drafts can be exciting and extremely helpful. Do you know what's even more exciting and probably less helpful? Hot takes and bold predictions. There is nothing quite like calling your shot on a player and being correct (or horribly, horribly wrong). The five not-so-popular... Read More

Andrew Lalama's Bold Predictions For The 2022 Fantasy Football Season
Understanding the math behind fantasy football can be a huge advantage. Using past statistics, player profiles, and team tendencies can absolutely help fantasy managers identify +EV draft picks and roster construction strategies. However, many arguments for or against players use past stats in a misleading or unimportant context due to incredibly small samples. Some arguments... Read More
Tommy Adamopoulos' Bold Predictions For The 2022 Fantasy Football Season
As we inch closer to kicking off the 2022 fantasy football season, why not close out the offseason with some bold predictions? Bold predictions are meant to be fun, but there should still be a sense of realism when making them. Yes, most of these claims are unlikely to happen, that’s why they are called... Read More

Welcome back RotoBallers to a tradition like no other - the bold predictions column.

Justin Carter's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season
Is there anything more fun than a bold prediction? You get a chance to say the things that you really want to say, but then if it's completely wrong, you can say "oh, that was just a bold prediction, of course it was wrong." I've had a lot of fun doing bold predictions pieces for... Read More
Thunder Dan's Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season
It's officially draft season and at this point, it's time to take some stances on players since you can't (and shouldn't) draft everyone. I'll be honest, the number of leagues I participate in has gone down considerably over the years as I am laser-focused on DFS, sports betting, and trying to cover three major sports... Read More
7 Bold Predictions for the 2022 Fantasy Football Season
Everyone likes bold predictions. Whether that’s because they like glancing at unexpected, but technically possible outcomes or because they like getting worked up over the absurdity of the bold predictions, I have no idea. If I were a betting man, which I am, I lean towards the latter. With that mindset, I fully embrace the... Read More
Fantasy Football Bold Predictions for Best Ball Leagues
Let's be real- if you want to win in fantasy football, it's going to take more than preseason preparation, smart drafting, and constant in-season management. It's going to take some luck. You want to take calculated risks with late-round fliers but also need to stray from the herd in order to avoid falling into the... Read More
Eric Samulski's Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
It's bold prediction time! Everybody's favorite time of year. Last year, I put out my bold prediction article and it was the second straight year of being all over the place with my results.

RotoSurgeon's Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
The best time of year is when I am allowed a platform to over-explain my seemingly irrational fantasy opinions. Bold predictions are a fun exercise for any and all analysts to let their gut do the talking beyond a tweet that may just come off as a hot take. For what it is worth, these... Read More
KC Bubba's Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
We are just a couple of days away from the start of the Major League season. We have done a ton of research, drafted most of our teams, and are ready for the games to begin. With nearly all of the work done, it is time for the yearly tradition of bold predictions. Some predictions... Read More
Jamie Steed's Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
Bold predictions can be the key to fantasy seasons. Predicting players who will outperform or underperform expectations by extreme amounts can win leagues. Bold predictions can also be entirely unhelpful, speculative thoughts that are just fun to consider. And the latter is what these are! Sort of. I'm not going to tell you I think Vladimir... Read More
JB Branson's Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
Welcome back to everyone's favorite series, the time where we allow rowdiness to surpass rationale ever so slightly and plant our flags on hills across the fantasy landscape.

Pierre Camus' Bold Predictions for 2022 Fantasy Baseball
Normally, I would begin this annual column by saying how grateful I am for the opportunity to be able to take up space on a major website like RotoBaller with my predictions for the upcoming season and follow with the number of years running I've done this. Truth is, I don't remember. Not that it's... Read More
Bold, Bolder, and Boldest in 2021: A Post-Mortem
Ahh, the time-honored tradition of making bold predictions is upon us. We hem and we haw; we make outrageous claims like Adalberto Mondesi invented the question mark, and bicker about the proper definition of "bold". In the NotBurtatorium (totally a real word), however, we worry not about this or that definition. Our goals are simple... Read More
Pierre Camus' Bold Predictions - 2021 Fantasy Football
After the chaos of last season, it's hard to categorize any prediction as outrageous or overly bold. The top two picks in fantasy drafts were complete wastes due to injury, UDFA James Robinson was better than Ezekiel Elliott, Jeff Wilson Jr. was a fantasy playoff MVP... and that's just at running back. Given the offseason... Read More
Josh Friedman’s Bold Predictions – 2021 Fantasy Football
Bold is in the eye of the beholder. When it comes to “bold” predictions, some fantasy pundits go for shock value. Others play it safer, opting for calls with close to a 50% chance of coming true. Perhaps the industry needs to create a blue-ribbon panel to decree what qualifies as a bold prediction --... Read More
Kyle Bishop's 10 Bold Predictions for 2021: Midseason Review
With the calendar flipping to July, we've now reached the rough midpoint of the 2021 season. As with any other year, it's been a mixed bag of expected results and wild surprises. As anticipated, the Dodgers and Padres are running neck and neck in the National League West...but both are behind the Giants, who somehow... Read More
RotoSurgeon's Bold Predictions for 2021
For more than one reason, 2020 sucked. Obvious reasons come to mind but specifically, for the fantasy sports world, there were dozens of random occurrences that could not have been predicted whatsoever due to COVID being so fresh and protocols so flimsy. Guys like Austin Meadows and Eduardo Rodriguez lost a potentially very good season... Read More
Pierre Camus' Bold Predictions for 2021
Can any prediction really be considered bold after 2020? We hope for a return to normalcy but we also have to remember that the very definition of normal is constantly changing. I've never shied away from pushing the envelope when it comes to this bold predictions column, so this year will be no exception. I... Read More
Jamie Steed's 10 Bold Predictions for 2021
Bold predictions can be the key to fantasy seasons. Predicting players who will outperform or underperform expectations by extreme amounts can win leagues. Bold predictions can also be entirely unhelpful, speculative thoughts that are just fun to consider. With that in mind, I do think that each of these predictions has a legitimate chance of occurring... Read More
Eric Samulski's Bold Predictions for 2021
It's bold prediction time! Everybody's favorite time of year. Last year I put out my bold prediction article, and it was a doozy. Obviously, publishing it before the shutdown which delayed the MLB season impacted some of the claims, but, actually, no, I'll just blame everything on that. Anyways, I'm back again to plant my...

Nicklaus Gaut: Bold, Bolder, Boldest Predictions
Ahh, the time-honored tradition of making bold predictions is upon us. We hem and we haw; we make outrageous claims like Adalberto Mondesi invented the question mark, and bicker about the proper definition of "bold". In the NotBurtatorium (totally a real word), however, we worry not about this or that definition. Our goals are simple... Read More
JB's Bold Predictions for 2021
I'm going to let you in on a little secret... JB stands for "JUST BOLDNESS". Okay that's a lie... it's actually not a secret because I use that every year in my bold predictions intro (three years in a row now, sure saves time on writing a new intro though). Nevertheless, welcome to the latest... Read More
KC Bubba's 10 Bold Predictions for 2021
The 2021 season is so close to starting, which means it is time for some bold predictions. It appears the season will still be a complete 162 games, with no NL DH and a standard playoff format. The bouncy ball will supposedly be replaced with a ball designed to limit power, fun times like usual from... Read More
Kyle Bishop's 10 Bold Predictions for 2021
I've been in the bold predictions game since 2015 and in that time I've had my share of successes. Befitting a premise that demands spicy takes, though, I've also wildly missed the mark a bunch of times (whither goest thou, Byung-Ho Park and Delino DeShields?) The format's been around long enough that you almost certainly know the... Read More
