Ushering In The New Era
We obviously want you to read this newsletter. We put a lot of work into making it the Greatest Thing You Will Read Every Day.
But please do us a teeny tiny favor and click over to FantasyLife.com for a moment—and gaze upon the beauty that is our new redesign.
We’ll wait!
Good? Pretty cool? Pretty freakin awesome??!! We’ve been building the new Fantasy Life for months. Testing, designing, trying to break everything so it’ll be perfect for you. Awwwww.
The stories are easier to find and read. The tools are, in a word, insane. Quick top two cool things we like:
Draft Champion has some nuances we haven’t even discovered yet. Pick opponent strategies. Have Dwain as your draft assistant. Re-do picks and create multiverses with different inflection points.
Fantasy HQ. Just block out an hour on your calendar, draw a warm bubble bath, light some candles, buy one of those giant “bath desk” things you only see in Instagram ads—and prepare to go down rabbit holes. There’s a LOT.
There’s a lot more. We put a ton of work into it and everyone here at Fantasy Life had a voice in building things—from conception to testing. Have a look, take it for a spin, and hey, feel free to reply to this email and let us know what you think!

Cooterdoodle’s Favorite Upgrades On FantasyLife.com
Cooterdoodle here. I absolutely love it when Joe Burrow leaves the house with a new suit or hairstyle. Am I saying Fantasy Life is trying to be the Joe Burrow of fantasy sports sites?
Yes. That’s my QB website 1.01!
While you dive in and check it out, here are a few of my favorite changes. Some, like Burrow’s hair, are only cosmetic. Others are absolutely, unequivocally fundamental to your future success, like a Tee Higgins touchdown.
FACES: It still reads “Ja’Marr Chase” at the top of the rankings, but at least I can see his face staring back at me while I’m checking to see which player my leaguemate is going to draft 1.01.
CHEATSHEETS: I made all A’s in school without anyone else’s help (thank you very much). But in fantasy, it feels good to be bad. I’m making a (new and improved!) cheatsheet for every single draft! (Though I’ll never admit to how many leagues I’m in).
UTILIZATION REPORT: I lived in the UR dropdown menu last season. Now, I’ll be living and breathing in the updated Utilization Report stats page (and more as they become available).
I could go on, but that would just give away the goods. There’s so much more to explore, so don’t wait any longer!

Seven Players Climbing The Ladder
A lot of things change from the start of the NFL offseason to the end of it, let alone what happens on a week-to-week basis in between. From injuries to suspensions, to some coach messing up our best-laid plans: Our great American pastime causes all kinds of grief all year round.
But Ian Hartitz says not today, Satan.
Today, we celebrate offseason glass-half-full optimism by breaking down seven of his biggest rankings risers since initially putting together 2025 rankings earlier this offseason …
QB12 ➡️ QB9
RB36 ➡️ RB22
RB56 ➡️ RB36
WR77 ➡️ WR57
WR45 ➡️ WR16
WR30 ➡️ WR15
TE32 ➡️ TE9
“Riser” may be an understatement for the movement some of these players have shown in the rankings. Who saw these massive bumps? Make your guesses! ⤵️
