INSIGHT

Third Round Draft Challenges

  • The third round in fantasy drafts often lacks appealing players with high upside.
  • Optimizing picks here means targeting players with top-tier scoring potential, not just filling slots.
ADVICE

Pull Up Players for Upside

  • Do not settle for low-upside players in the third round; consider pulling players up a round if they have meaningful upside.
  • Adjust your draft picks to chase higher ceiling players rather than just adhering to ADP.
ADVICE

Utilize Auctions for Value

  • Use auction drafts to better capture player value and market movement than snake drafts.
  • Auctions allow more flexibility to capitalize on undervalued players and adjust for trend shifts.
