FantasyMojo.com - Inside The Draft Room

In this episode we discuss the Footballguys Players Championship and review my team (drafted in position 12), as well as grade the other teams. We get a little bit into the theory of how you may want to approach these drafts, as a league that culminates into a large pool of teams in a tournament versus an individual league where you are only competing against your immediate league mates for the title. 

View the draft board HERE.

In this episode I go over my picks in the 2019 FFPC Revelations Draft conducted on May 2nd, go into why I ignored Todd Gurley at 1.12 and 2.01, and my thought process as the picks were made in the process of constructing the team.

We'll discuss how an FFPC Classic league compares to a Footballguys Players Championship league.  We also discuss how you can use the Classic Draft ADP to assist you in your FBGuys leagues, and where you can find info on ongoing FBGuys leagues.

In this episode we go over the 2019 FFPC Pros vs Joes Draft Challenge, reveal the theme, and discuss how you can become a participant in the Ultimate Best Ball Challenge which pits the high stakes players of the FFPC (the Joes) against some of the top Fantasy Experts in the industry today (the Pros).

Our 11th year of the competition once again awards each league winner with a FREE entry into the 2020 FFPC Main Event (a $1850 value).

After a wild opening week of NFL free agency and some high profile trades, we recap the impact of all the on FFPC Best Ball ADP.

ADP Charts always found HERE  on fantasymojo.com. 

Carlos Hyde and Antonio Brown found new homes this past weekend (March 9/10), so we take a look at the draft impact of these moves and what other players saw their market value increase or decrease.

In the world of chess, there is game theory around "the opening move".  In fantasy drafts, it's a similar situation. How you draft your first few players lays the groundwork for your draft. 

We dove into the the past two years of FFPC Best Ball (non superflex) draft data and looked at team win rate in relation to the positions selected with their first two picks. Would we see patterns? 

It's commonly said that you can't win your draft in the first two round, but you can lose it. There seems to be evidence of that. 

We'll discuss the best and worst opening moves based on the win rates of the teams, along with some patterns that seemed to be evident based on positions that were drafted. 

It will be helpful to follow along with the visual aid here.

We participated in a live FFPC $35 Best Ball Draft on Sunday night (3/3) of the NFL combine weekend.  We go round by round for the first half of the draft, discussing team approaches, and the psychological difference between a live draft versus a slow draft. 

At the end of the draft we analyze the final roster construction applied by each team, and refer to our 2018 Best Ball Win Rate data to see if anyone strayed too far off the path of what would be considered a reasonable team composition. 

FFPC is a TE premium format (1.5 PPR) with the other positions receiving 1 PPR. 

The starting lineups, to be optimized in this best ball format, are:

1 QB ,  2 RB , 2 WR , 1 TE,  2 Flex (RB,WR,TE), 1 K, 1 D

Quick thoughts and observations from the Live FFPC Best Ball 35 draft that went off Friday night March 3rd.  P

Seems the NFL combine performances are already affecting player value significantly in the draft rooms.  

Always good to review the draft boards from a Live draft, rather than wait weeks for ADP to reflect changes in player value.
