ADVICE

If You Play Zero-RB, Scout Mid-Round Upside

  • Zero-RB can work but requires targeting mid/late-round running backs who will emerge.
  • Fill your roster with multiple upside RB dart throws and be ready to start them the weeks they shine.
INSIGHT

Middle-Of-Round Picks Often Equal

  • Picks 3–10 contain many similar-caliber players so differences are small.
  • Prefer mid/late-first-round spots where the second-round return value often feels stronger.
ADVICE

Prefer Proven TEs Over Rookie Hype

  • Prefer Trey McBride or George Kittle over Brock Bowers at the two/three turn for consistent weekly advantage.
  • If you draft an early TE you should accept weaker RB/WR depth and plan accordingly.
