Just get your guys we have so many talented players, that ADP can fly out the window to start the draft. Don’t take Cooper Kupp at 1.03 if you think that Ja’Marr Chase is going to lead all WR in fantasy points, just get Ja’Marr Chase instead, for example. We don’t have the LaDanian Tomlinson Written In Pen First Overall Pick anymore, so just get who speaks to you. There’s no over drafting any of these players because we know all of them inside & out, and really, we are weighing the pros and cons of each of them. We’ve already thoroughly vetted all of these players, and found valid reasons for, or against, drafting them. For example 1.01 Jonathan Taylor is the lowest-scoring reigning RB1 since Devonta Freeman over half a decade ago, presumptive 1.02 Christian McCaffrey has played in ten games in two years, and presumptive 1.03 Cooper Kupp is hoping to become the second WR ever to have multiple 130 catch seasons. But, our savviness has given everyone a modicum of perceived risk and warts, because we actually interrogate these picks now. We’ve reached a point where we have a lot of stud established stars at the top of fantasy football drafts (Alvin Kamara, Joe Mixon, and Travis Kelce) as well as guys on the come-up (Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, and Mark Andrews). Long gone are the days of advocating for Mike Vick at 1.01 in a 1QB league, or talking up C.J. We’ve reached a point where we have enough fantasy football analysis kicking around that the true first-36 picks are the first 36-40 picks off the board. Please keep in mind, that these are not for Superflex leagues! Do Get Your Guy in Rounds One through Three We start with the Do’s, and tomorrow, we will get you the Don’ts.
#FANTASY FOOTBALL DRAFT STRATEGY CRACK#
And, while Evan Hoovler’s wonderful barbecue strategy outlines the Do’s & Don’ts of salary cap drafts, I wanted to take my own crack at it by giving you your snake draft do’s and don’ts for 2022, based on my personal draft strategy.

The countless mock drafts, the endless Stathead queries (I currently have 111 Stathead queries in my Downloads folder, mostly from the last two months), and the hundreds of thousands of words all come down to this: drafting a redraft fantasy football team. Everything I do for 9 months of the year, ultimately, comes down to this weekend. I’m not a huge Dynasty fantasy football player, and Best Ball is mostly dominated by one company that is now partially owned by Black Rock, so I’m out on that, too. I am damn glad to be back.I start my redraft preparation in January. These ranks, my Love/Hate column and, in fact, ALL of my written content will be 100% FREE. More details on our new fantasy and betting show on Sundays during the season will be released in the coming weeks.įinally, as you've likely noticed when you clicked on this link… a paywall didn't come up. You can also find my daily podcast on Peacock or wherever you find podcasts. In addition to these preseason rankings, my 100 Facts You Need to Know Before You Draft and 2022 Preseason Love/Hate columns are already out. As we get camp news, these ranks will obviously adjust, so check back early and often.
