Between 20, there was a case to be made that you needed to emphasize the position.

Let’s take a look at the number of QBs to score over 300 fantasy points, over 250 and over 200, year-by-year in the last 10 seasons:Īs you can see, there has been a shift in scoring among QBs, even over the last decade. Guess why? Because the position is absurdly deep! A scarier thought is that the position is only getting deeper. I have seen participants in industry leagues literally wait until their last pick to draft a starting QB. There have been home league drafts I am in where I have waited until the third to last round – after I loaded my bench with RBs and WRs – the round before the last two when I take a defense and kicker. Are you a zero-RB drafter? Do you believe in balance early on, targeting an RB and WR in the first two rounds? When do you decide to take a tight end? Do you grab one of the elite, take an upside shot, or risk getting nothing from the position all season? But when it comes to quarterback there is usually just one question: do you want to pay up for the elite talent? If the answer is no, you simply wait. Think about the amount of strategy you put into the other positions. If a strategy is so universal, can it even be called a strategy? At that point it is just a process. So why is it that the most important position in sports is merely an afterthought in fantasy football? Read any strategy article or turn on any podcast and you will likely hear the same sentiment: wait on quarterback. If QB is so important, why does fantasy devalue it? But there is one thing that has not changed and in fact, has more emphasis than ever: quarterback is the most important position in sports. There are even debates if running backs matter. The actual game of football has gone through great change as well from rule changes to the ever-increasing reliance on the pass. We have seen leagues add flex spots and some leagues have removed kickers or fantasy defenses. We have seen leagues implement FAAB, instead of just waiver priorities based on record. We have seen leagues go from standard to PPR to even half-point PPR. We have seen a number of changes in fantasy football over the years. Many of you have been playing this game for years. That does not just pertain to the less important stuff like real life, but it can be implemented into your favorite hobby: fantasy football.
