1/ Here's my 2021 draft plan:

If I have a top-five pick, I'm going with RB:
- 1.01: Christian McCaffrey
- 1.02: Dalvin Cook
- 1.03: Alvin Kamara
- 1.04: Derrick Henry
- 1.05: Aaron Jones

After them, I don't want a back until near the end of Round 1. 2/ In the middle of Round 1, I want difference-making pass catchers:

- 1.06: Travis Kelce
- 1.07: Davante Adams
- 1.08: Tyreek Hill
- 1.10: Stefon Diggs

I am high on Kelce because he's a WR at TE. I have a bet on him to lead the league in receiving.

If you play fantasy football but don't bet on player props, you're missing out.

Think of all the player-specific research that you do. You look at individual matchups. You break down home/away & favorite/underdog splits. You obsess about the weather.

You live fantasy. (1/25) Player props are basically a simpler version of fantasy sports -- but instead of building a team and starting a lineup you're picking one player.

And instead of competing against a league mate, you're competing against a sportsbook. (2/25)

Here is my general approach to 2020 redraft leagues.

I want a top-seven RB:
Christian McCaffrey
Saquon Barkley
Ezekiel Elliott
Alvin Kamara
Clyde Edwards-Helaire
Derrick Henry
Dalvin Cook

Rank those last three however you want. But I want them before Michael Thomas. (1/22) I view Michael Thomas as the top player in a WR tier with Davante Adams, Tyreek Hill, and Julio Jones -- and I generally don't want to take the top player in a tier.

Also, WR is deeper than RB, so I'd rather take a top-seven RB over Thomas: I can find WRs I like later. (2/22)
