Each week I am going to outline my plan geared toward Drafters.com’s weekly best-ball contest. This information can also be used at other sites that run similar contests but for me personally, I play at Drafters.com. This information could be used in the H2H contests, but it is mainly referring to GPPs and six-person drafts. H2H takes some different strategies, such as really paying attention to the slots that your opponent fills up first.

This week, the site is offering the normal GPPs including the “shark”, “whale”, and “splash”. Below I will list my targets and fades. I can not stress this enough, BE STRATEGIC! If a player makes my fade list I will 100% be fading. When depositing at Drafters.com please consider using the promo code “snatchers”. Let’s make some money this season and as always thanks for reading.

Quarterbacks

Targets

Josh Allen

Pat Mahomes

Matthew Stafford

Joe Burrow

Fades

Lamar Jackson

Aaron Rodgers

I am typically waiting until the last round or two to draft whichever QB falls or whichever one matches my receiving group. For instance, if I have drafted Hill I will be targeting Mahomes for sure. The same idea with Rams receivers and Stafford.

Running Backs

Targets

Alvin Kamara

Austin Ekeler

Joe Mixon

Ezekiel Elliott

Damien Harris

Fades

Aaron Jones

Darrel Henderson

Dalvin Cook

Nick Chubb

Saquon Barkley

Would love to start a draft with Kamara and Ekeler but that will be hard to do. Starting a draft with either of them in the first round is likely a good idea. If fading early running backs Elliott and Harris make great targets and could even make for good flex options as well.

Wide Receivers

Targets

Cooper Kupp

Tyreek Hill

Stefon Diggs

A.J. Brown

Ja’Marr Chase

Deebo Samuel

Robert Woods

Cordarrelle Patterson

Fades

Davante Adams

DJ Moore

Justin Jefferson

DeAndre Hopkins

Jaylen Waddle

CeeDee Lamb

Chances are some of the guys on my fade list will have good days, but I am rolling the dice with my targets. Hill and Brown are two of my favorite targets and they are very obtainable based on their ADP. The guys on my fade list come with too much risk this week and happy to avoid them at all costs. Once again, all in on Cordarrelle Patterson, a late 15 plus point guy that has even higher potential.

Tight Ends

Targets

Kyle Pitts

Mark Andrews

Jared Cook

Fades

Travis Kelce

Darren Waller

I recommend making Pitts a top priority. If I had to give one more as a last-round dart throw I’m going Jared Cook.

Good Luck and GO BRAVES!
