Summary
At certain points in your fantasy draft, you need to go *safe*! That's the main theme of today's podcast: players you can take in the early/middle rounds who'll minimize the risk in your fantasy football build. It's a day for high floors! We'll also discuss why default values aren't particularly necessary for your auction drafts, and what strategies you should think about when positional runs happen early in your snake draft. Plus a snarkbag and a mixtape! Wow! Guest: Jeff Erickson of Rotowire.
