There is a current article by FBG discussing the merits of this bold strategy.
Back in the day I used to do exactly this, with mixed results. I would maximize value everywhere, then try to pair up the 13th/14th best QBs, provided BYE weeks matched up, and voila - off to the races.
I made the playoffs a few times employing this strategy, and I also managed to pick the wrong QB to start about 60% of the time. On paper I chose the correct matchups. Sadly, games are not played on paper, and with low-end QBs, there's even less room for losing points by picking the wrong one.
Another risk is suffering a run on backup QBs, which happened to me one year. I waited just a little too long to grab my QBs, and 5 of my 6 targets vanished. It was a stomach turning moment in the draft.
Have you tried employing a QBBC strategy? If so, how did it work out for you? Would you consider doing it this year?
