WR Rankings + Mike Becomes a Real Boy!

It's just a matter of do you want, like you said, let's say you've got a 10-man, 10-team league, and you're debating between five and six roster spots. It's do the math on how many total players there would be and where the cutoffs would be for waivers. If you want...

waivers to be a little bit more difficult, you know, oh, people are going to go and really bit up this guy, which I think is more fun than a deeper bench is good for that. If you want more people on the waivers where you say, oh, you know, I want to be able to pick guys up off of waivers every week and have it be a little easier, then you go smaller benches. But I don't think there's a right or wrong number.

Stephen in Summers, Connecticut says, hello. New to the show, absolutely love it. It's my new go-to for fantasy news and wisdom. Oh, Stephen. Mine too. With there being such a large depth at the quarterback position, at what round would you suggest targeting my first, second, and third quarterback? By the way, two-quarterback league. Obviously, I need to roster a third quarterback to cover by weeks, question mark. What do you think? Yes, you need three. Roster sizes 18 people to quarterback league.

For me, it's not about round. It's about getting the value. And I am, even in a two-quarterback league, I'm still going to focus on my running backs or my wide receivers in those first early rounds. And then maybe around the, maybe the third round at quarterback is there that I just can't pass on. But it's normally around that four or five range where, okay, the top end talent is gone.

Middle range guys, the guys that I am perfectly fine with grabbing three of those guys that I then I picked their matchups. That's the way I play even in two quarterbacks. Yeah, I like that. I don't have a problem. I know, Andy, you're usually one quarterback early, one quarterback late. I like basically doing the same thing. The tiers.

There's players in certain tiers that I'm going to be targeting. I'm going to be targeting Matthew Stafford, Ben Rothlisberger, Rivers. Philip Rivers. I'm going to be targeting James Winston for my third, right? Because he's not going to start the year. He's going to drop and he'll be valuable as a third quarterback. It's not a round. That's why we talk about the ultimate draft kit, about tier-based drafting. You look at which players are kind of grouped together and you say there's so many of these guys left. I don't need a draft one yet. Let's go to the next round. Let's go to the next round.

Oh my gosh, my league has been drafting these guys high. I'm going to run out of this tier of quarterback that I want to get. I'm going right now in round two. That's how we put the tiers in the cheat sheet. So you're ready. And just let me list off some quarterbacks here who are considered basically close to undrafted in single quarterback leagues, which means they'll be available a bit later on two quarterback. Tyrod Taylor. James Winston. Blake Bordle. Blake the snake. Case Keenham. Alex Smith.

Alex, these are very usable quarterbacks, and they're not even, people don't want them in single quarterback league. So you can still wait while everyone is spending early picks and grab the elite running backs and wide receivers. Speaking of tears, Mike, did you shed a few when you woke up and saw that little checkmark? Oh, silently. I didn't want to wake up the family. He shed blue tears. Did you go in? Right. He didn't wake here. He got the dinner bell out and ran through the house. No, I did not.

I did not, but once everyone was awake, I broke the news to my wife. And she was also probably more excited than people should be for something as dumb as a Twitter verification. You've had a lot of long nights. Yes. A lot of nights in the corner. She's like, they can't make fun of you anymore. Oh, yeah. We'll find something else.
