2014 Reap: Overall Biffle wasn't very competitive , nor really showed much of anything. Biff strong point was Intermediate racetracks which was also pretty average. RFR was thrown a curve ball and Biff and co didn't response well. Only 3 Top 5s and no wins or pole was probably a double blow to Greg. Not offen have Biffle put up those type stats.

Strong tracks: Michigan , Daytona and Texas.

Weak tracks: Kentucky and Richmond

Additional info on Biff: Biff isn't the fantasy relevant consistent finisher he once was. But I see Biffle bouncing back in 2015. Big reason I thought RFR struggled was how slow they were to catching on to 2014 race package. There no way RFR can do any worse. They have hit rock bottom.

Yahoo Grouping Prediction: B Grouping Tier

Overall Value Prediction: Middle of the road tier value with upside

2015 Fantasy Outlook: Honestly I expect a lot of people to sleep on The Biff early in the season. But if RFR can figure out the 2015 package , Biff could be a nice value. Of course that is just speculation. I see Biff being a nice value or a inconsistent option in 2014. Kinda hard to know anything else with limited testing going on this offseason. I say Biff improves on his stats from 2014. Of course that isn't saying much.
