Key #1: Draft a God Damn Running Back With Your 1st Pick
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Hot take alert right off the bat but listen to me very closely, YOU NEED ELITE RUNNING BACKS TO WIN YOUR LEAGUE! At the very least you need one solid running back to hold you down all the way to the fantasy playoffs. A few years back it was all the rage to draft the elite wide receivers over their peers in the backfield, and that blew up in a lot of owners faces.
The fact is you simply can get solid production out of receivers you can find later on in the draft. And a lot of the time the diva receivers who cost you a high draft picks do not deliver on the investment. It’s simple, there is a reason why 9 out of the first 12 consensus picks on FantasyPros are running backs https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/rankings/consensus-cheatsheets.php
Key #2: DO YOUR SLEEPER RESEARCH!!!!!
I can not stress this enough. RESEARCH👏🏻YOUR 👏🏻DAMN 👏🏻SLEEPERS 👏🏻PEOPLE👏🏻! Check out all the sites (mainly ours) for all the possible deep sleepers that will be worth a late round stash. Check out your 1st rounders handcuff, and his handcuff’s handcuff. It pays off big in the end!
Example, Kareem Hunt. Mr. Hunt had his owners on top of the world before he treated a hotel hallway as his own personal kick boxing gym and got his ass cut from Kansas City. All of the sudden there was a gaping hole in the most explosive offense in the league. In comes ya boy Spencer Ware who immediately took the starting job….BUT WAIT, he got hurt and the boy Derrick Williams stepped in and absolutely dominated down the stretch. It even got so bad KC’s fourth stringer got in the action towards the end.
Moral of the story; make every draft pick and roster move count. Do your research.
Key #3: Be Aggressive On The Trade Market
A lot of people get scared to wheel and deal when it comes to fantasy sports. Some are afraid to be on the losing end of a deal, and others just don’t know how to pull off a league winning trade. It can get complicated negotiating major deals with your league mates and create drama for the commissioner, but isn’t that why we play this game in the first place?
Simply put, if you need a player, go get the,. Be aggressive especially if you think it’s going to see you over the top!
And there it is boys and girls! Follow these keys and make sure you get a solid draft together. If you do all this, we guarantee you will crack the code and bring home that title!
Let’s get it this year!
