Each year, fantasy football leagues are won by a savvy manager able to cull significant value from their drafts while opposing managers swing and miss. As we embark on draft season for most fantasy football leagues, equipping you with the knowledge to be that shrewd dude or cagey lady, so you can befuddle your league mates. Sifting through the running back average draft position (ADP), I was able to unearth some RB values for you to target in drafts.
When heading into drafts, most managers come to the table with a strategy. There are many different approaches, all with fancy names to indicate the heart of the plan. As an analyst and fanatic, I’ve tried them all a few times. Zero-RB, Zero-QB, Robust-WR, and the list goes on. However, there’s one that I keep going back to repeatedly: Hero-RB.
