Fantasy football draft strategy becomes crystal clear in this engaging mock draft where three experts attack a 12-team PPR league with expanded rosters (3WR/2FLEX) from the top three draft positions. What unfolds is a masterclass in adaptability, player evaluation, and roster construction that will transform how you approach your own draft.

Drafting from the second position presents unique challenges that we tackle head-on. Is Bijan Robinson worth the early investment, or should you prioritize an elite receiver like Justin Jefferson in a format that requires starting five pass-catchers? We explore both paths, revealing how your first-round decision cascades through your entire draft.

The mock showcases vastly different team-building approaches. From the "Hero WR" strategy starting with J'Marr Chase, to a naturally evolving Zero RB build anchored by Jefferson and Tyreek Hill, to a balanced approach seeking high-floor weekly contributors – you'll witness how each philosophy shapes decision-making throughout all rounds.

Hidden gems emerge as we progress, with players like Treveyon Henderson, Jerry Jeudy, and Mike Evans garnering passionate discussion about their potential to outperform their draft positions. Meanwhile, the debate around when to draft quarterbacks and tight ends reveals fascinating insights about positional value in this format.

Perhaps most valuable is our candid analysis after the draft, where we break down each team's strengths, vulnerabilities, and potential in-season moves. This transparent evaluation provides the blueprint you need to not just draft well, but to position yourself for season-long success through trades and waiver wire management.

Whether you're drafting at the top, middle, or end of your league, this mock draft delivers actionable strategy that will give you the confidence to make optimal decisions no matter how your draft unfolds.
