Fantasy Football Draft Strategy for Each Draft Pick Slot

In fantasy football, it's important to have a plan.

Your draft will play out way differently if you land the 1.01 and can snag Christian McCaffrey than it will at any other slot in the first round. You'll want to have a general approach in mind for each slot so that you know in which rounds its advantageous to load up at which positions, and that mindset changes based on where you pick.

At FanDuel Research, we've got you covered.

Our staff has taken the time to map out optimal approaches to drafting from each slot in your draft so that you can know what to expect and how to play things based on your specific circumstance.

Each of those articles is linked below. Once you've got that all mapped out, be sure to circle back and check out FanDuel Research's season-long fantasy football projections, powered by numberFire, to see which specific players stand out at each position.
