Drafting Your Team

Drafting your team is, in my eyes, the most important part of playing fantasy football. This is where you should apply all of your research and use it to pick your best team. The first four round will be your obvious pick, but your mid to late round picks can make or break your team. In these round you really need to use your research to form the best team possible.

Free agents are players who were not drafted and can be picked up at any time during the week.

If one of your players gets hurt or is not producing you can pick up one of these free agents in that players place.

There is no deadline for picking up free agents.
