Approaching Wide Receivers in Fantasy Drafts
When it comes to drafting wide receivers, the approach should depend on the league's scoring and lineup requirements. In standard leagues starting three wide receivers with half or full PPR and a flex position, it is advisable to go wide receiver heavy until around round six or seven. This ensures a strong receiving core early on and allows for focusing on high-upside running backs later in the draft.
