How to draft wide receivers.

Let's take a look at some tiers on fantasy football today in five.

I'm Adam Azer. I'm joined by Chris Towers here.

All right, Chris, you said something on our full-length show that I thought was very interesting.

We talked about the rounds in which you might just kind of pepper the wide receiver position,

the tiers that you really like.

So lay that out for us.

Yeah, so I think, you know, based on history, what you see is that the first two rounds in

particular are the places you get the best return on investment from your running backs.

And, you know, round three is where it starts to slip.

Wide receiver stays pretty solid all the way through at least the fifth to sixth round range.

Over the last five seasons, there have been 49 wide receivers drafted in the fourth and fifth round on average.

29 of them scored 200 plus points.

I think 200 plus points is probably the range where you can say that guy's a very good

or at least a good starting player. So you got about a 60% chance all the way down to the fifth

round, whereas in the running backs, eight out of 35 in that same time period, top 200 points. So I think the ideal way to build your team is probably something like one or two running

backs in the first three rounds and wide receivers between three and really eight are,

you know, where you want to get the core of your team, your past catchers at least.

Right.

Not to say three, four, five, six, seven, and eight, shall I be wide receivers?

Although, I've done it before, certainly.

Three, four, five, six straight wide receivers?
