0:00.0 | Good morning, friends and enemies. |
0:01.7 | I know your fantasy drafts are rapidly approaching. They might be tonight. That might be tomorrow night. They're going to be throughout this week. They're going to be over the next couple of weeks. So I wanted to get on the mic and talk about the strategies that I've felt most comfortable with entering and leaving a draft with, particularly in the early round. So we're talking about the first five or six rounds |
0:21.4 | of every draft. We're going to go through different areas of the draft. So if you have pick 101 |
0:26.1 | versus 104 versus 107 versus 109 and give you some structure and strategy around the different |
0:32.2 | picks in the first round. I've done thousands of mock drafts up to this point, hundreds of |
0:36.1 | bestball drafts. I've done them on everything from Underdog to Sleeper to Yahoo to ESPN. |
0:41.6 | So I'm going to try to give you my most genuine pieces of advice that I think are practical for your home league, your work league, not try to fill this with fluff of fake ADP and all that shit. |
0:52.0 | For this video in particular, I'm going to be catering this towards full PPR leagues, |
0:56.9 | three wide receivers. |
0:57.9 | So one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, a tight end, flex, two flexes, |
1:03.1 | whatever. |
1:03.8 | I will throw some pointers and tidbits along the way that I think are practical or useful |
1:08.0 | for half PPR as opposed to full PPR and maybe starting |
1:11.2 | two wide receivers instead of three because these videos can be difficult right to cover everybody. |
1:16.0 | Everyone at this point plays in such customizable leagues that there's just no one size fits |
1:20.5 | all video but I do feel like the core audience typically plays in full PPR. |
1:24.5 | A lot of them are wide receiver heavy so we'll start there and work our way through the Throughout the video, I will be addressing different mock drafts that I've done either this morning or the last few days that I think pertain to the strategy or the draft pick that I'm talking about in particular. So we're going to start in the earlier rounds of the draft. Right. If you're picking the 101, the 102, the 104, 105-ish in that area, what I found to be most helpful |
1:46.8 | to build a winning team, in my opinion, is starting off with a wide receiver first. And I think that |
1:52.3 | tends to be the case if you're at the bread sides of the sandwiches, right? If you're early on in the |
1:56.6 | first or if you're later in the first, the value pockets for wide receivers make a ton of sense, |
2:00.8 | given what happens in the second round of drafts. So if you were later in the first, the value pockets for wide receivers make a ton of sense, |
2:01.5 | given what happens in the second round of drafts. So if you were to look at my rankings right now, which are up in the draft guide on BDGE.e.com, Jemar Chase is my clear 101. That's regardless of half PPR, start three wide, start two wide receivers. He's the guy that if I have the first pick, I'm taking and I'm not thinking twice about it. After that, a lot of people have a Bijan, a Gibbs, |
