I am new to the channel, and I will be sticking around all year for this valuable content. I do have to say funny how you recommend so many WRs early but when you won 100K, it was because you took 2 RBs in the first 3 rounds
IMO this is honestly a great year for late round receivers; Kupp going around the 4th round, Flowers in the 5th, McLaurin & Diontae going around the 7th round and Christian Watson/Jameson Williams/Ladd McConkey going around the 10th, there‘s just so much value I love it.
Hey Mason, love the videos! when we get closer to home leagues beginning to draft normal redraft leagues, can you do videos like this but for redraft leagues? 🙏❤
I feel like for a home redraft league, I'd assume that the 4-5 WRs in the first rounds with only 6 total is the most translatable to a managed league in terms of efficiency because you know those guys are studs and should be played. If there's 4-5 total starting slots for WRs and flexes in your league, you're starting your no-brainer high draft picks there. By shotgunning 8-9 WRs throughout the draft, there's less guarantee of added efficiency beyond insurance because you can't guarantee you played one of your dart throws during their spike week, whereas in best ball you know you'd benefit. To anyone reading this, if you're consuming June FF content I'd assume you know this, just always keep in mind the translation of league settings, particularly total starters, to any strategy. You don't want to be THAT WR heavy if it's just 2WR and 1-2flex in half PPR. If you're 3WR+ and/or full PPR, these strategies are more applicable.
@Flockfantasy I have 6th pick in PPR redraft. (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 Flex) do you recommend going elite RB in round 1 with Breece / Bijan or elite WR with Amon Ra / Jefferson? 15 round home league, 12 team.
Last year I had the 1.01 pick. Everyone including all the experts said to take a WR like JJ or Chase. I grabbed CMC instead and won my whole league. This was in my most competitive league too. Moral of the story, don’t listen to the stats or the experts 100% of the time. I realized by doing mock drafts last year, that I liked the WR selection much better at the 2/3 turn than I did RB selection. Therefore, I took my league winning RB first and then double dipped at WR at the 2/3 turn. Do your mock drafts and don’t take these statistics too seriously.
@@nasrumohamed4908 I know it sounds like bait because I said it was a competitive league, but I got ceedee and Amon ra 😭 Our league probably ended up taking more RBs in the top 20 than most leagues last year
Not trying to be contrarian, but it does feel like there are better options at WR later in the draft than in years past. I would be very curious to see how this does this holds up this year. Just antidotally it does "feel" better when you get a spot where you can select WR for the first three rounds. Picks 2-6 seem really ideally suited to this because of the quality of the WRs available late second and early third.
@@brocksolomon8953 Player preference isn't really the point here. Stroud doesn't offer much rushing upside, yet he's being drafted closer to the top rushing QBs than he is to this list of players
It's also best ball where spike weeks are important. Stroud is way more likely to have a monster game than those later guys even though they'll have similar average points. In a regular redraft league I would agree more because I like going QB a little later where I can get a safe 20+ points every week.
I understand WRs are important but Best Ball tournaments,only top 2 make the playoffs...if all 12 teams follow this strategy and all take 5 receivers by round 8,apparently you would have no advantage?
Been playing 25 years, It doesn't matter how you draft. It sounds crazy to say but it's all about waiver pickups. I had CMC, AmonRa, Olave, K Allen, Mostert and Herbert last year... won 1st 7 in a row then lost my last 8 including 1st playoff rd. Ridiculous.
This analysis is fundamentally Misleading.That's what the draft numbers were last season, That has absolutely no bearing for this season.,,New season, new games, new injuries. New defense. Just so happens the year you won a $100000., You pick 2 running backs in the first 3 rds,, That's a big contradiction from what your numbers just said.,,If people would have copied that format the following year. They would have won nothing.,, In my humble opinion, There is such a thing as information overload. I believe this falls under that category. And it will take you off winners,, I won $20,000 ,,,2 separate times on Dk,, Both wins were with no analytics, These best ball tournaments come down to 1 thing and one thing only, Volume volume volume, Mix n match different players AND STACKS,be unique, Every person has access to the same information.Everyone is using that same information, (rb dead zone)lol, Thank God I didn't listen to that. Mixon rb6,,,Etienne rb3, white rb4,,,,you Need to be different,ADP Is a guideline not a bible,, Henceforth All of these. so called Professionals. Have different RANKS, Be your own professional., I will definitely pass up the next best ADP player in the middle rounds, To go grab me someone who is gonna complete my stack.. I do believe in the first round this season.You do want one of those mammoth WR, Because it gets flat really quick with the rate that these wr are being picked,,, And because of that,stud Rb are being passed on, I believe this is the best yr for rb value ever,,and i will gladly grab them up in the rb dead zone like i did last season (white,mixon,Etienne, )hopefully i can beat my last yr record of 11th place in dk bestball,,, I can't do underdog game Michigan. does not have it.
The key to winning leagues this year is to take Kupp in Round 2. Diggs in Round 3. Keenan Allen in Round 4. Come back and take McConkey and Brian Thomas in Rounds 6/7. Round 1 can be RB or WR. Round 5 take the best QB available (Burrow). Round 8/9 take Singletary and Ford.
He is a young back who is an absolute stud prospect in college and showed his flashes and more while playing. Don’t blame him for his coach using him as a decoy
@@adambarnes4191 so he is a bust within the first year of his career where he still ran for 1k yards in a pitiful offense where the QBs changed out like a game of wack-a-mole and the coach underused everyone of his talents like Kyle Pitts and Drake London while giving unneeded touches to Tyler Allgier?? Yes it was a purposeful run on sentence
@@adambarnes4191 that is the problem when u r too invested in fantasy, u forget about real life when a player doesn’t preform for you in a week to week basis without thinking of the real life factors and the fact that he is a rookie. so he should improve only improve from there. And u aren’t factoring in how much that offense was holding him back
@el1tefire252 he was a bad pick last year too. I took Chubb every time there and still feel better about it than Bijan. At least I could move on after that instead of wasting a spot each week. Hook em horns

Great video mason! Love the real stats and statistics
Appreciate you my dude!
Great video! This helps a lot seeing the statistics and putting it into a draft. Love the content 🔥
Nice vid! Can't wait for the redraft content
In a redraft league you probably want to prioritize value more and then trade to fill holes in your roster.
So how does it work for Dynasty then? Curious.

Good vid Mason!
Good luck on the IronMan Mason !! Bring home the bacon for us Underdogs !! Enjoy your vacation. Well deserved.
Good stuff Mason!
Have you done any weekly winners drafts?
I wonder is it possible to see all the teams that made it to the final round in the last two years of bbm or the or any of the other drafts?
This is just for underdog drafts correct?
Is this for a 2 or wr pick
Not trying to be contrarian, but it does feel like there are better options at WR later in the draft than in years past. I would be very curious to see how this does this holds up this year. Just antidotally it does "feel" better when you get a spot where you can select WR for the first three rounds.

Wr seems so slim this year. We were getting Puka round 18 last year....
Awesome vid!
I have bijan as my number one running back and chase as my number one receiver so I live getting the middle pick
Well that's just dumb
Is this only for best ball? Does this apply to regular fantasy .5 PPR leagues?
This is for best ball, the underdog fantasy channel already did a video on this. Redraft strategies are much different
Mason mentioned he'll post redraft strategies as we get closer to draft time (august)
That team is actually gas
Hear me out, this is the best strategy for 7 rounds in 2024. Always leave first round with a wr, do this in order. WR, RB, WR, WR, TE, RB, WR,
how many WR’s are you allowed to have starting at once in your league?
He plays on Underdog, so it's 3 WRs and a flex (up to 4 WRs)
Did I miss it or did you not mention PPR or Std for all those stats?
It's half ppr on Underdog
The bots, my lord!
s3x bots love me
As an aside I dont get why Stroud is going round 5 when guys like Purdy, Tua, Herbert, and Goff are going 4-6 rounds later.
Because Stroud was better than all of them last year and had a significant weapons upgrade. It's no question he's way better than those guys...
@@brocksolomon8953 Player preference isn't really the point here. Stroud doesn't offer much rushing upside, yet he's being drafted closer to the top rushing QBs than he is to this list of players
@@TheSentry603 QB7 last year points per game. QBs don't need to offer rushing upside to be elite. See Dak last year who was like QB4.
@@brocksolomon8953 Way to give an opinion, support it with zero facts and pretend it's reality.

WR's are OP , mostly cuz of how offensive systems are designed now
Well yeah the bell cow running back has died.
Where is the live
he’s in france i believe so no lives for a little big
@@rockybalboasleftnut318916:20 is a lie! Lol
So we going to ignore how insanely successful drafting 6 WR in the first 6 picks was last year? Yes I know it was a small sample size.
I'm going to prove you wrong...my 1st 4 picks in one of my drafts are Bijan,Barkley,Kelce and Mahones.
😂😂😂😂
@ricklopez7965 oh well it was only a $3 tournament lol
🔥🔥🔥
Lol I need the clift notes.
How come I get pick 9 like half the time 😑😑😭🎊
2000 doesn't strike me as a small sample size. Seems like a reasonable basis for conclusions
🎉
I’m going to make a response video…🤣
I understand WRs are important but Best Ball tournaments,only top 2 make the playoffs...if all 12 teams follow this strategy and all take 5 receivers by round 8,apparently you would have no advantage?
Damn I’ve never drafted more than 5
DK Metcalf or Marvin Harrison Jr?
Lol, MHJ is going a round and a half earlier than DK
I don't think that will be justified during the season tho
@@abhiramgunna952 2020 was DKs best year. 83/1303/10.. those aren't hard to obtain
@@johnjacobs3601 Yes but they got a new coaching staff
Bro the finals % for that 5th WR between round 7-9 averages out to be the same….. plus you only poll people who pay to be polled haha
JSN then Rice was TERRRRRIBLE. Why would you not take Keon Coleman over Worthy. Coleman WR1, Worthy WR2.....?
Been playing 25 years, It doesn't matter how you draft. It sounds crazy to say but it's all about waiver pickups. I had CMC, AmonRa, Olave, K Allen, Mostert and Herbert last year... won 1st 7 in a row then lost my last 8 including 1st playoff rd. Ridiculous.
There are no waivers in best ball tournaments 😂🤣💀

You still made the playoffs
Not really. You missed on like half of those picks 😂😂😂😂
