It's important to nail first-round picks on draft day. An early whiff doesn't take fantasy football owners out of contention, but it places added pressure on finding a sleeper in the middle-to-late rounds.
Whether it's a quarterback, running back or wide receiver, find your roster building block and strategize around his reliable production. We have to take injuries into account, but that's why the waiver wire exists, and it's impossible to predict when a player will go down in pain unable to suit up the following week.
Most importantly, monitor roster changes and battles throughout the preseason.
