Christian McCaffrey is the near-universal 1.01 pick in every fantasy draft. Expect Josh Allen to be around a third-round pick in most leagues, and perhaps the first pick when it is a league starting two-quarterbacks. He will be the first quarterback selected. Want a tight end? Sam LaPorta is the first to go, even before Travis Kelce #GreatestTightEndEver #IsSheThere. CeeDee Lamb climbed the rankings and is the first wideout taken in nearly every draft. Why? Because these players were the top in their positions in 2023.
And hey – how great do they look on a shiny new fantasy roster this summer?
Happens every year. Literally – I’ve played fantasy football for over 30 years and it always happens. And yes, if I am first to raid a position, the previous No. 1 kind of screams “Take me! Don’t be an idiot!”
