Saw a bunch of dyno/startup threads but nothing really on redraft. There are a lot of different strategies, I was wondering what the tank was thinking for those in redraft auctions this year. I know you have to "keep your head on a swivel" and "be ready to adjust your strategy" and "look for value"...yada yada...pretty obvious. And yea if you play your cards right you can get some insane value at the end of the draft if you save but I want to avoid talking value cause you know how hunting it goes when you are in the thick of things.
Here is what I am looking at this year. (15 man standard roster with $200 cap)
QB- I will take two. If I can score one of the Ryan, Foles...etc crowd for good price I will do that and shoot for a Cutler, Rivers, Big Ben for backup or match up/trade bait if all goes well. (Budget $15-20)
RB- I want 6 RB. I want one or two tier 2 Rbs depending on how it goes and one or two tier 3 Rbs. From there I look to spend the rest of my RB budget on three tier 4/5 Rb and hope to hit on 3 or 4 out of 6 relatively speaking. (Budget $100-$110)
WR- Looking at 4 WR. I want one tier 2/3, and three tier 3/4 WR here. There is so much talent in the WR pool but need to hit here if only carrying 4 players. (Budget $70-75)
TE- Forced to target one tight end here. I guess if I get good value at QB on every week starter I can grab two tight ends but I feel more comfortable carrying two QB. (Budget $2-10)
K and D - $1 per but might pay $2 for a defense but no more than that. (Budget $2-3 for both positions)
So obviously I am not aiming for any top tier player at their position, I am concerning myself with depth so I can go ahead and kiss the big dogs goodbye. I guess you could say I am conservative but it has paid off for me in my main money leagues as you stand a better chance of finding that killer value over a well known commodity that will cost you. Again, it's all about value in auction, and I will jump on it if I see it, but how is everyone else approaching their redraft?
