This is part of a series highlighting Latin people in the Fantasy Football Industry. 3 of 30

Latin America is a large geographic region that extends from the southwest of the United States to the southern most point of Tierra Del Fuego of South America, and includes both sets of the Antilles Islands (Caribbean Sea). Culturally it is an area that extends to every continent, but is predominately located in the Western Hemisphere. Brazil is the largest geographic country and has the highest percentage of Latin population. Some of the best fantasy football GM/Coaches I have competed against reside there. Today the highlight is on Pedro Decker, who lives in Brazil.

Pedro had this to say:
My name is Pedro, I’m Brazilian and I’ve been following the NFL since Super Bowl XLVIII, when some friends made me watch the game and it was love at first sight, especially on the defensive side of the ball, because of the Legion of Boom. Since then I have been somewhat self-taught about the sport and it was by playing Madden that I deepened my knowledge, especially getting to know the players. In 2017, I chose the Rams to support and that was also when I discovered fantasy football. I didn’t know anyone in the league who had joined and my first choice was Tom Brady in a non-superflex league. I started to get to know the Brazilian community and in 2019 I discovered fantasy IDP and discovered that it was exactly what I liked. In 2020, I could no longer play leagues without it. Last year I helped write a fantasy guide for the Brazilian public and I liked it. At the end of last season, the opportunity arose to join the RPO and I have been there ever since.

A fellow Latin leading the way for the IDP crowd, a person after my own heart! Make sure to follow Pedro on X @PBDecker and find his work at RPOfootball.com.

Thank you reading, please come back tomorrow as we highlight another Latin in the Fantasy Football Community.
