0:00.0	All right, I'm back in the draft lobby on Underdog, drafting against some fellow employees.
0:15.0	And today I think I'm going to be going for a zero RB build from the eight spot.
0:19.7	Show you guys how I like to draft these type of teams.
0:23.2	I've used zero RB a little bit differently than most.
0:26.0	I've written about this before,
0:27.8	but the thing I'm trying to do with my zero RB builds
0:30.6	is draft my wide receivers early and then stop drafting them earlier than most people think.
0:35.9	I think that your zero RB team should have six

1:02.0	you have some of these Christian Kirk breakout seasons, any of those type of seasons,
1:06.0	they are best paired with only having six or seven wide receivers.
1:10.0	So since we're assuming that these players are going to break out,
1:12.8	these are going to be smash wide receiver picks early on.
1:15.3	I want to stop drafting so many wide receivers after I kind of hit on them early.
1:20.7	So that's the plan for today.
1:22.0	Let's see if I can pull it off.
1:23.0	So we had a pretty standard start early on with the top seven off the board.
1:27.3	So I'm going to be debating
