Half the fun of playing Fantasy is building a team from scratch. Some people like to just show up to a draft and pick names without much thought. Those are the folks we beat in Fantasy every single year.
The tiers laid out here are the Fantasy Football version of Waze. You’ll know where to expect most players to go, and when certain players become massive bargains if they go unpicked for too long. You’ll know which positions you can wait to pick from and which ones you need to prioritize.
But the strategies for each position further detail what
kinds of options you’ll have to put your squad together. You could get that amazing quarterback in the first two rounds, but at what cost? Same thing if you opt to pass on running backs until Round 4 or 5. Every option is laid out for you to think about before you draft . Only you can decide what’s right for you.
There is no wrong way to build a Fantasy team (unless you take kickers earlier than the last two rounds -- that’s a terrible decision and you should be made fun of for it). This advice will help you determine what steps you could take to bring home your league’s trophy.
