Are you wondering how to most effectively build your Fantasy team? We'll take you through a recent draft of ours and tell you what we learned about picking from each spot in a 12-team league. It's a 3-WR league, but many of the lessons will translate to 2-WR leagues. First, an observation about Round 2 running backs (3:00) and then our thoughts on Jonathan Taylor (11:10) and the rest of the news including Terry McLaurin's injury ... Recapping Ravens-Commanders (24:35) with a big night for the Commanders offense. We liked what we saw from their RBs. Then we'll get into the pick-by-pick strategies with an overall thought on average draft position (27:05) and the value of having either a Top 8 quarterback or a Top 7 tight end (30:00). Let's take a look at Teams 1-3 (33:45) and how to draft if you have a Top 3 pick. These three squads drafted very differently with one of them drafting a QB and a TE at the 2/3 turn. ADP would suggest that if you draft 1-3, you should like your RBs and WRs at the 4/5 turn ... Moving on to Team 4 (43:05) which was the Travis Kelce team. What could your squad look like if you take Kelce in Round 1? Then Teams 5-7 (48:15) all started RB/WR but things changed after that. Which build was the best one? Team 8 (56:10) went with 3 WRs out of the gate. Did we like this team? And finally, Teams 9-12 (1:01:15) were all looking at great RBs in Round 2 and had to decide between the stud RB and the stud WR. Also, what's the best way to approach QB if you are drafting 9-12? ... Email us at [email protected]
