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 that I will hope to go into more detail about in future weeks. Below I will list my targets in order from favorite to least favorite. I can not stress this enough, BE STRATEGIC! If a player makes my fade list I will 100% be fading. Let’s make some money this season and as always thanks for reading.
Quarterbacks
Targets:

Dak Prescott
Kyler Murray
Fades:
Patrick Mahomes
Lamar Jackson
Josh Allen
Love the idea of stacking Cowboys WRs with Dak or Seahawks WRs with Wilson. One of these QBs typically falls to the thirties. Mahomes will be a frequent list in my fades. The majority of the time he goes way too early to be into any consideration.
Running Backs

Alvin Kamara
Joe Mixon
Derrick Henry
Christian McCaffrey
Nick Chubb
David Montgomery
Fades:
Ezekiel Elliot
Najee Harris
Dalvin Cook
CEH
Aaron Jones
Once again, I have a serious man-crush on Taylor. My advice to you would be to try to get him everywhere possible and into any and all lineups. I might have been wrong by not drafting Kamara before but I am correcting that now. If I can’t get him or MCC in round one, I will be looking at Kelce although paring the two would be ideal.
Wide Receivers

DeAndre Hopkins
DK Metcalf
CeeDee Lamb
Amari Cooper
Jarvis Landry
Robby Anderson
Fades:
Calvin Ridley
Tyreek Hill
Stefon Diggs
Justin Jefferson
DJ Moore
AJ Brown
Chances are some of the guys on my fade list will have good days, but I am rolling the dice with my targets. I was able to draft Landry with my 29th pick recently.
Tight Ends

Darren Waller
Travis Kelce
Rob Gronkowski
Fades:
George Kittle
Kyle Pitts
Dallas Goedert
Love starting a draft with Kelce and Waller. If missing out on those two I would highly recommend prioritizing Gronk.
Good Luck!
