Brock Bowers or Christian McCaffrey at 1.08? In TE premium, with both guys already sitting on plenty of their teams, the answer was Bowers. From there it was two running backs sooner rather than later, a receiver room built almost entirely between rounds six and nine, and a late-round plan that shores up the backup running backs before touching the onesie positions. THE FULL SQUAD 1.08 Brock Bowers, TE Round 2 Omarion Hampton, RB Round 3 Travis Etienne, RB Round 4 Tee Higgins, WR Round 5 Tucker Kraft, TE Rounds 6 to 9 Mike Evans, DK Metcalf, Quentin Johnston, Makai Lemon Backup running backs Chris Rodriguez, Tank Bigsby, Brian Robinson, Malik Davis Quarterbacks Brock Purdy and Jordan Love Late darts Chris Bell, Oronde Gadsden II, Evan Engram Ravens DST and Andres Borregales, the Venezuelan Viper Also in here: why Labor Day weekend is one of the best weekends of the year to draft, what happens to ADP once the grinders move out of the Gorillas and into the Main Event, and the FFPC wrinkle that lets you swap a Wednesday or Thursday game out of your lineup after you have seen the score.
