    EDIT: I fumbled chatters. Point #1 for QB is drafting a QB1 before Round 14 NOT Round 4 (slide @ 17:55). Also, don't be fooled by the intros to RB (11:20) and QB (16:56). The guys do not talk about TEs three separate times. Hard enough to do it once.
    Thanks for not lighting me up in the comments, all! Plenty more Best Ball Summer and Redraft content on the way.

      If you want to use the rankings in a redraft league, bump up the values of the running backs by at least 1 round. Best ball leagues tend to skew heavily towards WRs because you can use more.

      I find that this advice has lead to a higher floor in my redraft leagues. Our set up is 2/2/2 rb/wr/flex and I usually target WRs to fill those flex spots when I draft in the early to mid rounds. My league tends to undervalue WRs. I’m often faced in the second round with “should I take an RB2 or ARSB?” And then my 3-4 of my first 5 picks are receivers

    i love your individual projections in season ,as i make a lot of moves so you do help me in leagues. and even daily. i play just a few best ball but i like your info for everything. but i listen to a lot of other shows too.
    I was in 7 1/2 PPR leagues last season my result 2-1st , 1 2nd ,1 3rd , 1 4th. 1 5th.1 7th ( all 10player yahoo leagues.) slightly better than my norm . but in 1/2 ppr rb's . really matter due to lack of depth of quality. the key to winning is finding the quality breaks and beating the adp. TE is still the tightest pos. - of course in leagues you have def and kickers usually. you need 2 good def - stream them and play the waiver wire for matchups 2-3 weeks away.

    • @waltergregg3706
      @waltergregg3706 Před měsícem

      I agree with that assessment, just keep in mind that players are generally valued around the places they should be drafted. Don't reach more than 1 round ahead of your draft spot once you hit the 120s and up.

  • @FSUtrack
    @FSUtrack Před měsícem

    Any thoughts on how these strategies might change in the 12 team sit and go drafts? I would imagine uniqueness is less important since you just need to beat a few teams to make $, not tens of thousands. Probably same thing about stacking beyond 2nd pass catchers. I would love to see some data and analysis on these drafts as I like to use them to practice drafting before dropping more $ for a round of BBM.

    • @eatpowder
      @eatpowder Před měsícem +1

      This ^!!! I’m very much wondering the same. We only have to beat 11 other teams to cash, and if this make sense. I feel it’s close, but I don’t mind taking more elites unstacked, and I definitely try not to reach to stack, like they do in these tournaments. I still go piss boy yellow/orange, but try to get my two elites in the first 6 picks. My leagues draft rb heavy early, so I scoop up the other values and go for Zamora, Moss, Singletary, and some upside rookies. I also focus on more rbs, if I am too heavy on wrs. It’s been a pretty good run with a 33% success rate in the last 4 years. Turned $450 in 6k during that time. Good luck!!

      I hear you, even though I cut them more slack than anybody considering this is Underdog’s official channel. Definitely how I feel with all the other fantasy channels out there, seems like the influence of underdog/best ball skews the narrative a bit.. I think running backs are getting undervalued due to the best ball format, and a lot of these channels minimize how that affects strategy for redraft

  • @dbarller
    @dbarller Před měsícem +1

    I know there are numbers supporting drafting Wrs historically early for bestball but my god how can the wr26 be drafted over rb 10. The only reason you might have to draft wr early is because they are way overvalued this year in the rankings and will be gone in a few rounds. Regardless if you have to use 3 Wrs just give me the guy that’s going to obviously score more if healthy. And the wrs after the top 12 or so are a mess to figure out and take as a second round pick

    • @MrMmitsch
      @MrMmitsch Před měsícem +1

      The reason is that the rb’s have been busting like crazy and tanking your draft if you took them early. Look at top 10 rb last year in drafts. There’s ekeler, Bijan, Henry, pollard, Chubb, Jacobs, Stevenson all busts. So the teams that took early rb scored less typically because there were fewer hits
