We ran out of time before we got to talk about auctions, so we'll save that for another show. But we cover basically every other format today after we start our show with some ADP trivia (1:30) to see recent trends in average draft position. Who is being drafted earlier over the last four days: Saquon Barkley or Jahmyr Gibbs? Drake London or Kyren Williams? Malik Nabers or Michael Pittman? ... Jamey and Dave give their takes on the Steelers (11:15), Panthers (14:30) and Browns (16:00) backfields and then we go over the news and notes (19:15) before getting into how to draft in different formats! We start with 0.5 PPR vs. full PPR (23:00) as there are some subtle differences here. Should take Garrett Wilson or Jonathan Taylor? Should you avoid the WR/WR start in this format? Then we hop over to non-PPR leagues (27:30) and review yesterday's non-PPR draft. Are quarterbacks more valuable in non-PPR? ... Our next format discussion is about 2-WR leagues vs. 3-WR leagues (38:25). What, if anything, changes here? Should you avoid the Hero-RB approach in a 2-WR league? And we finish up with 6-point vs. 4-point per passing TD leagues (50:30), point per first down (55:50) and Superflex (56:50). Is this the year to wait on QB in Superflex? ...
