Draft strategy for RB heavy leagues (1 Viewer)

[Sid]

I'm drafting in a couple of leagues that overvalue the RB position. Not neccesarily in the scoring department, but in the starting lineup. For example, one is start 1 QB, 2 RB, 1 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex(RB/WR/TE), 1 D, 1 K.

Is there any other strategy I can utilize besides taking RBs early and often?? Any suggestions on when to target the other positions?

Thanks!

I am in the same type league and have been for years now. I find that ut's best to let the draft come to you, and take the best player available. However, I will stray from this to get at least 2 RB's in the first three picks. You can usually find a decent RB3 in the fourth round, even in these leaugues.

In a similar league but it's auction.....I favored RBs heavily last year and paid for it. Even in such a league you need balance. Taking RB3s when a top QB/WR/TE is there is not the way to go.
