Summary
When it comes to draft strategy, it seems like all people talk about is "upside" and "ceiling," and of course we understand. Who doesn't love week-winning fantasy football options? But sometimes when considering roster construction, it's important to find safe players, too. That'll be our goal for today's podcast: the philosophy of when taking "high-floor" players makes sense. Plus we'll give you options in each of the early rounds for safe players you can feel great about drafting. And we'll update Justin Herbert's injury, Curtis Samuel's injury and discuss Jags rookie WR Brian Thomas. Guest: Scott Pianowski of Yahoo! Fantasy.

| 0:32.8 | too many of those shows sound like this one and i hope agree, which I think is why so many folks listen. |
