"Have a plan. Follow the plan, and you'll be surprised how successful you can be. Most people don't have a plan. That's why it's easy to beat most folks." – Paul "Bear" Bryant, football coach, University of Alabama's Crimson Tide.
We are on the verge of the prime of fantasy football draft season, a heady time when we are thinking about how the draft will unfold, who we are going to target, and how we are going to make our championship team come together in real-time pitted against a group of live minds. Preparation is important, but never to the point of rigidity. There will be unexpected picks ahead of you that cause a player you never considered to fall to your pick. You will see key players in your draft plan sniped a pick or two before you are on the clock. You need to be prepared, but you also have to be flexible. The best way to do that is to understand the alternatives for filling each starting slot on your team. When you make a pick, you are affecting the decision matrix for your later picks. Sometimes the answer isn't who you like better among your early targets when you are on the clock in the early rounds but who you like better later at the positions you are neglecting when you make a pick. If you feel comfortable about later options, then it's easy to kick a position down the road a few rounds. If you are staring at your last viable option to fill a starting spot, it's probably better to avoid the pain of figuring out what to do later.
First, as always, know your scoring and lineups. If you only start two wide receivers and running backs with no flex positions, then tight end and quarterback become more important. If you can start seven WR/RB, then quarterback and tight end are less important. Know which players/positions are helped and hurt by whether your league is non-PPR, 0.5 PPR, PPR, or tight end premium (1.5 PPR for tight ends). Know which quarterbacks are helped and hurt by bonuses for long scores or 300-yard games, and whether your league gives more than 4 points for a passing score or 1 point for each 25 passing yards. Look at the average points per game at each position sorted in descending order and note which positions have the smallest and largest spans between #1 and the last starter based on league size times starting requirements to know where getting an elite option is most important (VBD drafting!) You get the point. Know the landscape before you get dropped in to conquer it.
Next, create a list of players that are your guys. Using ADP, you can have a reasonable expectation of who will be there in which rounds and you can start to piece together a plan that will give your lineup balance and upside and create possibilities for improvement on your bench. You should also have clarity on which players you value so much less than the hive mind that you can just cross them off of your list. Understand the if/then logic of your choices and how they ripple through the later rounds. Then clear your mind, get in the moment, and draft!
As always, fantasy football is a diversion, an escape where we get to call the shots. Do it your way and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with getting lost in a puzzle and forgetting the pressures of everyday life.
Cliff's Notes
Overall: There will be multiple right answers at every position, and the right answers will change as the season unfolds. Have clarity on which players you like at each position in each section of your draft so you can piece together a roster of players you want, no matter how your opponents draft.
QB: The top three quarterbacks were a big enough advantage in 2022 to push them up draft boards into the third round and earlier and set the bar for elite quarterback scoring higher than ever. Try to get a quarterback outside of the top three with a chance of joining them or a quarterback who can stay without shouting distance at a discount.
RB: Running backs have been pushed down the board. Whether it's RB1, RB10, or RB20, options at running back are available later than usual, so you can break ties against running back and get viable options later than you're used to.
WR: You'll pay a premium for the top 10 wide receivers, which will all likely be gone by the mid-second round. The third-sixth round is a vast plateau of various risk/reward combinations, and you may find you'll like the 5th/6th round options almost as much as the 3rd/4th round options. As usual, you should have a healthy list of late-round darts to throw at the position.
TE: Travis Kelce's ADP reflects the gap he opened up between himself and the pack at the position, but Mark Andrews should be much closer to him if he can stay healthy and he comes with a round-plus discount. There are options available in the 4th-6th round who can be close enough to Kelce/Andrews to be the best value pick at the position, but the landscape is barren once you get outside of the Top 10.
K: Take one with your last pick that's established in a good offense.
DEF: Take one with your next-to-last pick that has a good Week 1 matchup.
Quarterback
Again, knowing your scoring system is key here. In leagues with distance touchdown and 300+ yard game bonuses, more than four points per pass touchdown, or efficiency scoring that takes points away for incompletions and awards points for completions, players like Jared Goff, Dak Prescott, Kirk Cousins, Tua Tagovailoa and Geno Smith have more value, allowing you to wait longer if you like going late at quarterback. In more typical leagues with four-point pass touchdowns and a point per 25 passing yards, the quarterbacks with a running dimension remain king.
I get it; late-round quarterback is attractive because you can get 18-20 points per game off of the waiver wire. That was a more compelling argument when the top quarterbacks were in the 24-25 point-per-game range. Enter quarterbacks like Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts, and Patrick Mahomes II, who can score 30 points a game on average in typical scoring systems at their peaks, and the game has changed. A 10-point per-game advantage is the largest that any player at any position will give you over replacement value. The object of fantasy football is to score more points than your opponent, and it sure seems like getting an elite fantasy quarterback is the shortest line between A and B to achieve that result. Who is the best target if you want an elite fantasy quarterback but don't want to pay the premium for Allen, Hurts, or Mahomes? The answer is one or more of Lamar Jackson, Justin Fields, and Anthony Richardson.
Note: Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert deserve a mention with a lot of positive factors pointing toward fantasy improvement from 2022 levels, and targeting them at ADP as your QB1 could also be a winning plan.
Target: Lamar Jackson
Round: 4
Jackson is usually going off of the board in the round after the last of the Allen/Hurts/Mahomes trio, which isn't a big discount, but with a faster tempo, more aggressive passing game, and a much better wide receiver corps, Jackson could easily return to 2019 fantasy form and finish as THE QB1.
Target: Justin Fields
Round: 5
Fields will come at a 2-3 round discount from Allen/Hurts/Mahomes, and he only needs a small improvement in passing efficiency/production to join them. From Week 5 on, he scored about the same as Joe Burrow's year-long scoring average. The two are going in the same range of drafts, but Fields isn't sidelined for all of camp and the preseason like Burrow, and he has a lot more room to improve for fantasy, especially with the addition of DJ Moore.
Target: Anthony Richardson
Round: 8-9
Richardson comes with much more risk than Jackson and Fields because he's a rookie, but his head coach helped Justin Herbert hit as a rookie and unleashed Jalen Hurts as a runner, so like Fields last year, he can be a poor passer and still post strong QB1 numbers with ceiling weeks that match the elite trio. The risk is more than reflected in Richardson's price, and the reward is not reflected enough. It's reasonable to take Richardson even if you already have Jackson and Fields. Once you see Deshaun Watson go off of the board, it's time to take Richardson.
Even if we plan on taking one of Jackson, Fields, or Richardson, even if we are willing to take them a little ahead of ADP, sometimes the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.
Target: Daniel Jones, Jared Goff, Geno Smith
Round: 10-11
Have no fear; the viable options outside of the top 10 quarterbacks are strong enough to rest easy if you have to rely on them. Jones offers a similar rushing upside to Josh Allen, and he should improve as a passer. He's a potential league winner in year two of an improved offense and should be your top target if you wait and Richardson gets sniped ahead of you. Goff and Smith should also be in improved passing games, and they are starting from a low QB1 floor they established last year. Once two of Tua Tagovailoa, Dak Prescott, and Kirk Cousins (who are all solid picks at ADP for teams that don't take a top-10 quarterback in their own right) are gone, it's time to target Jones with Smith and Goff as backup plans.
What if I wait and miss out on Jones, Smith, and Goff?
The chances are this happening are slim, so don't let it discourage you from slow-playing the position, but at that point, you are probably looking at Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers as your Week 1 starter (or perhaps Derek Carr) unless you have a feeling about someone like Kenny Pickett or Desmond Ridder. You'll want to take a shotgun approach at the position, selecting your veteran Week 1 starter, hopefully watching Kyler Murray fall to your next pick to build in second-half-of-the-season upside at the position, and then taking your favorite late-round youngster from a group that includes Pickett, Ridder, rookies Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, Brock Purdy, Sam Howell, and Jordan Love. And keep Trey Lance on waiver-wire speed dial if anything happens to Purdy.
Do I need a QB2?
Yes, but only if it's an upside play like Richardson, Jones, or Murray. It accomplishes three things. First, it gives you injury insurance and bye-week coverage. Second, it denies one of your competitors who did not take a QB1 an option that could hit and allow them to get away with it. Third, if your late-round quarterback hits, you can trade your established commodity quarterback to help your team elsewhere.
A note for Superflex/2QB players
The top 9-10 quarterbacks fly off of the board in Superflex/2QB leagues. You should probably take your QB1 in the first or second round unless you want to chance Richardson falling to the third. If you have an early draft slot, it is almost imperative to take a quarterback first because the value dropoff from round 1 to round 2 at quarterback will be much steeper than RB/WR/TE, especially with the preponderance of quarterbacks going early, pushing RB/WR/TE options down the board. Typically in a Superflex/2QB draft, you can get RB/WR/TE a round or more later than their ADP in 1QB leagues. Alternatively, that makes taking an RB/WR/TE come with a penalty of taking them in the same round they usually go in if you take one in the first round. You can employ a strategy of waiting on your second quarterback and taking RB/WR/TE as long as you can until you feel forced to take your QB2 because the supply is drying up. Options like Pickett, Ridder, etc. will be available after your top 50 or so RB/WR/TE are gone, so you won't be assessed as big an opportunity cost when you take them as you would if you take an early QB2. Going quarterback in two of your first 3-4 picks can still work out and could be a checkmate if you get Richardson in the third or Jones in the fourth, and they hit. But you have to be almost flawless on your early RB/WR/TE picks if you don't take your QB1 early.
Your Game Plan at Running Back
Your RB1 and You
With running backs falling further than ever, you might be tempted to go Upside Down/Do the Opposite/Zero RB, but that trend in drafts means fantasy players are paying less for their early RB1 option, and folks that wait as long as possible to get their RB1 are banking less of an advantage than they have in the past. You can split the difference and go with a Hero RB strategy, wherein you take your RB1 early and then get your RB2 candidates at the 2023 running back discount.
Who should be your Hero RB and when should you take them?
Take your RB1 in the First Round
Target: Christian McCaffrey, Austin Ekeler
Round: Early-Mid First
The 49ers are stressing throws to the running back in camp, and Ekeler is coming off of a 107-catch season and second straight year with double-digit rushing scores. Both would be worth the #1 overall pick in typical years, but excitement about the ascending careers of Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase, combined with Ekeler and McCaffrey being on the back nine of their careers, is pushing them into the 3-7 range, depending on what your leaguemates think of Cooper Kupp, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce.
Target: Bijan Robinson, Nick Chubb
Round: Late First
Robinson should get all of the work he can handle, and he's running behind a line that made Tyler Allgeier look good late in 2022. Chubb should get more passing down work than ever with Kareem Hunt gone and since the Browns offense should be vastly improved from the stuck-in-the-mud attack we saw when Deshaun Watson made his debut in Cleveland last year.
Take your RB1 in the Second Round
Target: Saquon Barkley, Tony Pollard
Round: Early-Mid Second
Barkley might be going in the first round now that holdout worries have passed, but Pollard should almost certainly be there in the early-to-mid second round. Both should be heavily involved as receivers and runners with big play upside in solid offenses.
Take Your RB1 in Third Round
Target: Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs, Jonathan Taylor
Round: Early-Mid Third
Do you like to gamble? Henry and Jacobs are coming off of strong RB1 seasons, and Taylor was going #1 or #2 overall last year. Henry is falling to the third round because he'll be running behind the worst offensive line in the league, and he's at the age and career workload when the wheels can come off. Jacobs is holding out, and Taylor is holding in. Both could get dealt to a team that wants to pay them or just show up and give their all this season to earn a payday from another team in 2024 in a best-case scenario, but there are lots of potential problems, including but not limited to not being willing to play through minor injuries (or even inventing injuries), holding out/in into the season, and in Taylor's case, ceding a big piece of the running game to Anthony Richardson. Chances are, at least one of these backs will make us look foolish for letting them fall to the third. Good luck figuring out which one that is.
Take Your RB1 in the Fourth Round
Target: Jahmyr Gibbs
Round: Fourth
Gibbs is falling to the fourth because he's an unproven rookie, but the Lions clearly have a plan for him that includes a big passing game role (he was Bryce Young's leading receiver at Alabama last year) in an offense that will manufacture mismatches the way Henry Ford's assembly lines used to manufacture cars. His profile is not far off of what Ekeler and McCaffrey's were before they emerged as elite fantasy options.
Go Upside Down/Do the Opposite/Zero RB
With dead-zone running backs falling farther than ever, you might be tempted to ignore the position until the 6th round and target multiple backs with upside in the mid-rounds. The list of targets includes, but is not limited to:
David Montgomery, DET - 2022 Jamaal Williams is his floor. His ceiling is finishing as one of the top 10-12 fantasy running backs.
Miles Sanders, CAR and Dameon Pierce, HOU - These offenses should be run-heavy to take pressure off of their rookie quarterbacks.
Cam Akers, LAR, James Conner, ARI, Rachaad White, TB - They aren't sexy picks, but guaranteed lead-back volume is usually more expensive than a 7th-8th round pick.
Javonte Williams, DEN - He's beating the projected timeline for his return from knee surgery and is still cheap for a talented 1A on a run-first team.
Isiah Pacheco, KC, James Cook, BUF - Will lead the backfield of an elite offense in touches
Alvin Kamara, NO - Positive reports out of camp and will only miss three games
It's pretty easy to pick 2-3 of these backs in the 6th-10th round range and then see how the chips fall. This list isn't exhaustive - there are others like J.K. Dobbins, D'Andre Swift, and Antonio Gibson who offer the ability to outproduce ADP and make this strategy work this year. You can also take some high injury-upside backups and role-playing backs in the late rounds to hedge against your running back picks all busting early in the season. There are variations on this strategy - whether to take an early QB/TE to try to lock in top scoring at every position other than running back or if your league can start as many four wide receivers, locking in four top receivers as the foundation of your team. If you've been wanting to try it but not bold enough to jump off of the cliff, the depressed running back ADPs have created a unique opportunity for the strategy this year, although getting your Hero RB is also cheaper than ever.
My Favorites:
Target: Dameon Pierce, HOU, Miles Sanders, CAR, Cam Akers, LAR
Round: 6
Target: David Montgomery
Round: 7
Target: James Conner, Rachaad White
Round: 7-8
Target: James Cook, Isiah Pacheco
Round: 8-9
Target: De'Von Achane, Zach Charbonnet
Round: 10
Your Second Running Back and You
Embrace the running back depth
My recommendation is to only take one running back in the first three rounds and employ the same shotgun approach for your RB2 that the Zero RB drafters will employ for their RB1 and RB2.
Take your RB2 in the first three rounds
There are good reasons to take two running backs early. A 0.5 PPR scoring system, the opportunity to take a potential elite RB1 in the third round (or Gibbs as your RB2 in the fourth), or feeling good about lots of later picks at tight end or wide receiver the same way we feel confident about later picks at running back. Just make sure you have clarity on those targets, as you'll have ground to make up at wide receiver at a minimum. Don't be afraid to take your favorite back from that 6th-10th round range group to deny an opponent who waited at running back an out and reinforce depth at the most fragile position in fantasy football.
Running back bench - 10th round and later
No matter your approach, at least your third (and if you don't take one in the first four rounds, your fourth, too) running back should come from that rich 6th-10th round group. Your other running back bench spots are important.
Rookies
Ideal in: all formats
Targets: Tank Bigsby, JAX (11th round), Roschon Johnson, CHI (13th round), Tyjae Spears, TEN (15th+ round), Deneric Prince, KC (15th+ round), Chase Brown, CIN (15th+ round), Evan Hull, IND (15th+ round), Zach Evans, LAR (15th+ round)
Injury-Upside/Second Fiddles
Ideal in: Deep leagues with thin waiver wire pools
Targets: Jaylen Warren, PIT (11th-12th), Tyler Allgeier, ATL (12th-13th), Devin Singletary, HOU (13th-14th), Chuba Hubbard, CAR (15th+)
Monitor Depth Chart Resolution for Clarity: Malik Davis, DAL (15th+), Joshua Kelley, LAC (15th+), Chris Evans, CIN (15th+)
Wild Cards with Uncertain Roles
Ideal In: All Formats
Targets: Khalil Herbert, CHI (10th-11th), Raheem Mostert, MIA (14th-15th), Kenneth Gainwell, PHI (14th-15th), Gus Edwards, BAL (14th-15th), Zamir White, LV (14th-15th), Leonard Fournette, FA (15th+), Ezekiel Elliott, FA (15th+), Kareem Hunt, FA (15th+), Clyde Edwards-Helaire, KC (15th+), Cordarrelle Patterson, ATL (15th+)
Your Game Plan at Wide Receiver
Taking your WR1 in the first round
If you are picking in the back half of the first and want to go wide receiver, you will be choosing from Stefon Diggs, A.J. Brown, and CeeDee Lamb in the 9-12 range. If you like the second-round running backs and you are worried about a 34-year-old Travis Kelce, wide receiver makes sense in the middle of the first, too. If you draw a top-two pick, you are likely taking Justin Jefferson or Ja'Marr Chase. Tyreek Hill is an option in the 3-6 range, as is Cooper Kupp.
Targets: Justin Jefferson, MIN, Ja'Marr Chase, CIN Tyreek Hill, MIA
Round: Top 3-4 overall
Targets: Stefon Diggs, BUF, CeeDee Lamb, DAL, A.J. Brown, PHI
Round: Mid-Late first
Taking your WR1 in the second round
You might find a running back or Travis Kelce a more compelling option than the wide receivers available in the first round. Depending on your draft slot, you'll have two groups to choose from if you want to take your WR1 in the second round.
Target: Davante Adams, LV, Amon-Ra St. Brown, DET, Garrett Wilson, NYJ
Round: Early-Mid second
Target: Jaylen Waddle, MIA, Chris Olave, NO, DeVonta Smith, PHI
Round: Mid-Late second
Taking your WR1 in the third or fourth round
Starting Kelce/RB, RB/Andrews, or RB/RB with a later TE target is viable this year (although an RB/RB start limits your ability to tap into the mid-round RB vein of gold). The third and fourth rounds have a few receivers who could finish in the top 10-12
Target: Calvin Ridley, JAX
Round: Early-Mid third
Target: Jerry Jeudy, DEN
Round: Mid-Late third
Target: Drake London, ATL, DJ Moore, CHI
Round: Fourth
It's not advisable to wait until the fifth round or later to take your WR1, with the exception of non-PPR and maybe 0.5 PPR leagues, where wide receiver production is depressed by the scoring system. With PPR more prevalent and running back depth stretching farther in drafts this year, you may, on the other hand, consider starting WR-WR or spending two of your first 3-4 picks on a wide receiver.
WR2 in the 2nd round
Targets: See WR1 in the second list above
WR2 in the 3rd/4th round
Targets: See WR1 in the third/fourth list above
WR2 in the 5th round
The dropoff from the 3rd/4th to 5th (or 6th) in wide receiver quality might not be that steep.
High Ceiling Targets: Mike Williams, LAC, Brandon Aiyuk, SF, Mike Evans, TB
High Floor Targets: Chris Godwin, TB, Tyler Lockett, SEA
WR3/Flex in the 7th/8th round
Hopefully, you have at least two wide receivers by Round 6. You may have three, or maybe even four, and you can ignore wide receiver to stock up on quality discount running backs or perhaps a QB/TE. There are still a couple of good targets in this range at wide receiver if your draft unfolds in a way that makes the position a priority.
Targets: Zay Flowers, BAL; Jordan Addison, MIN; Jahan Dotson, WAS; Gabe Davis, BUF; Skyy Moore, KC; Elijah Moore, CLE
Upside Bench Picks
Wide receiver is strong enough in the first eight rounds that you should be able to concentrate on your high-confidence bench picks and allot picks to speculative running backs in the early bench pick range. Later on, the floodgates will open, and ADP is not as reliable, so have a priority wide receiver or two to target in the 12th-14th rounds.
9th/10th/11th Round Targets: Courtland Sutton, DEN; Michael Thomas, NO; Kadarius Toney, KC; Odell Beckham Jr, BAL; Rashod Bateman, BAL; Jameson Williams, DET; Nico Collins, HOU
12th-14th Round Targets: D.J. Chark Jr, CAR; Marvin Mims Jr., DEN; Rashid Shaheed, NO; Van Jefferson, LAR; Curtis Samuel, WAS
15th Round and Later Targets: Darius Slayton, NYG; Parris Campbell, NYG; Terrace Marshall Jr, CAR; Joshua Palmer, LAC; Puka Nacua, LAR; Richie James, KC; Justyn Ross, KC
Your Game Plan at Tight End
Travis Kelce in the early- to mid-first
This is one of the best angles at tight end this year. The 34-year-old comes with some risk, but he lapped the field last year and has had an incredible durability track record. The team also still lacks an established go-to wide receiver. Who do you think Patrick Mahomes II is going to look for when the bullets are flying? The second/third round running back and 3rd-5th round wide receiver groups make it easier to stomach this.
Mark Andrews in the second (or third)
Kelce in the first is a good angle, but Andrews in the second might be the best. A return to 2021 form, when Andrews outscored Kelce to be the fantasy TE1 is possible, if not probable, with the boost that a faster-paced, more pass-friendly offense foreshadows in Baltimore. If Andrews falls to the third, you might need to change your draft plans unless you love one of Darren Waller or Kyle Pitts.
George Kittle in the fifth
Kittle doesn't offer the upside that Pitts and Waller offer a round later, but he's a safer pick, and his first healthy offseason in a long time, combined with Brock Purdy being ready to assume the starting quarterback mantle, could make him a surprise, and we know even in a down year, Kittle is good for a few week-winning outbursts.
Kyle Pitts or Darren Waller in the sixth
The best shot at a top-three tight end outside of the top-three drafted comes in the form of Pitts and Waller. Pitts is available three rounds later than he was last year, even though his situation is materially better and seems to be fully back from knee surgery. Waller is looking like the clear top target for Daniel Jones and just needs to stay healthy. Waiting to take one of them in the sixth round is a viable strategy and may end up being the best one when the dust settles. If you're waiting on Pitts/Waller in the sixth and miss out and don't want to punt tight end, Dallas Goedert is usually the next tight end off of the board, and he offers moderate upside if he can become the top red zone target for the Eagles, which is well within his range of outcomes.
The third tier of tight ends
The warts on players like Evan Engram/Pat Freiermuth (low ceiling) and David Njoku (crowded passing game/cold weather games) make the TE8-10 tier not very attractive when you consider Waller and Pitts go only 2-3 rounds earlier at the most. If you don't get a Top 7 tight end, it's probably best to pass on this tier.
What if you don't get a Top 10 tight end?
Good luck! You will have less competition on the waiver wire, but you will also be at a disadvantage to open the season against almost every other team in your league. If you go this route, favorite targets include:
Dalton Kincaid, BUF (11th round) - It sounds like the Bills' first-round pick is ready to assume a big role in the offense.
Sam LaPorta, DET (13th) - It sounds like the Lions' second-round pick is ready to assume a big role in the offense.
Luke Musgrave, GB (15th+) - It sounds like the Packers' second-round pick is ready to assume a big role in the offense.
Taysom Hill, NO (15th+) - The Saints' short-yardage running back, plus sometimes gadget quarterback and receiver, is still being overlooked.
Hunter Henry, NE (15th+) - Henry is having a great camp, and Mike Gesicki is looking like a non-factor.
Jake Ferguson, DAL (15th+) - With second-round pick Luke Schoonmaker sidelined for much of camp and not being ready to assume a big role, Ferguson's numbers could be a lot closer to Dalton Schultz's than the fantasy community is expecting.
Should I take a second tight end?
The quality and depth of tight end options and the likelihood that many teams will be satisfied with their TE1, along with the somewhat bleaker picture from TE11 on, makes this less advisable than it has been in recent years.
Your Game Plan at Kicker
Are leagues still using kickers in fantasy lineups? I'm willing to defend it, and not just because I cover the position for our training camp reports. Kicker as a reason that a matchup is won or lost is cruel, random, and senseless… and something that happens in the NFL most weeks.
Wait until the last round to take your kicker and get one of these underrated options:
- Jason Myers, SEA
- Jake Moody, SF
- Jason Sanders, MIA
- Eddy Pineiro, CAR
- Ka'imi Fairbairn, HOU
- Chad Ryland, NE
Your Game Plan at Defense/Special Teams
Streaming is the best approach here, so we're looking at Week 1 matchups and avoiding defenses that have a top-six ADP, rendering them unlikely to be there in the next-to-last round.
Targets
- New Orleans (vs Tennnesee, at Carolina)
- Minnesota (vs Tampa Bay)
- Baltimore (vs Houston)
- Atlanta (vs Carolina, vs Green Bay)
- Denver (vs Las Vegas, vs Washington)
- Washington (vs Arizona)
- Chicago (vs Green Bay, at Tampa Bay)
Happy drafting, all! I'll keep updating this as the preseason unfolds and continue to share everything I am digesting and processing that is changing my approach to drafts for the rest of the preseason and right up until draft season ends when the actual season begins.
