Robust RB Strategy: Draft Them All Early

There’s the Zero-RB draft strategy, which as mentioned above is for those brave souls who thrive in knowing that their RB room on draft day will look far different late in the season. Then there are the Hero-RB drafters, who want that security of the 300-touch blanket that will complement a WR room that is the envy of most of the laegue.

For those who want high T, we present the Robust RB strategy. Come draft day, you hit the running backs early, then again and even sometimes again. There’s advantages to gain, if all those picks hit. Teams can soar with multiple backs who are having top-10 seasons. That’s why Adam Pfeifer is continuing his series on draft strategies with this aggressive approach.

Embrace The Uncomfortable in Guillotine Leagues^TM

That game you’ve come to love called fantasy football, pretty cool, huh? What if we told you there was a way to play it that makes the search for a Monday Night miracle look like a leisurely weekend stroll. If you haven’t played Guillotine Leagues, the sweat of being on the chopping block every week gives you that playoff feel … all 17 weeks! Kendall Valenzuela did a good job of describing the feel of evading the blade, for those brave enough to want to play a game with the ultimate edge:

This is a different way of drafting and a unique way of navigating the waiver wire, so my best piece of advice is to embrace the uncomfortable, because if you try and play this like other fantasy leagues you're in, then you are bound to be chopped. Just remember: in Guillotine Leagues™, you're not trying to finish first, but instead, you're trying not to finish last in any week.
