It's been stated before, but the first few rounds in a fantasy draft are integral to constructing a successful fantasy team.
It becomes even more evident after reading JJ Zachariason's breakdown of running back bust rates and seeing just how often those early round "safe" bets can falter.
Understanding the inherent risk at every turn of the draft can help separate yourself from the pack as you construct your roster. Mitigating these risks with players who have high floors is a smart way to avoid such risks while investing your early draft capital.
