A few weeks before the season, the commissioner and a few of us get together (TRUST NO ONE!) to draw the order out of a hat.
Our salary cap doesnt really matter, but usually the champ picks the first player. In my snake its rando assigned by ESPN 1 hour before the draft. So, you gotta prepare in any position!
 

I'm way too low on Kyren Williams to have high hopes for a team with him as RB1. Garrett Wilson is also way too overrated in fantasy. Team 2 is scary, especially if Mixon makes a comeback later in the season (though I feel like every fantasy draft needs a dunce cap for whoever drafts Kyle Pitts, lol).

Best draft though I would have to say in Team 6. The lynchpin will be how much Baker regresses. I would say CMC's health mattered the most but they got his handcuff so they should be fine regardless.

Roughest drafts go to teams 8, 9, 10, and 12. 10 (Snarf) is probably the best out of that group; I think you managed to find some good value for WRs in later rounds and could pull out a solid season, even if I would never wish "Zay Flowers is your WR1" on my worst enemy*. 12 is next; they're pretty solid in most positions and they're likely to hit on at least one of their RB2s. Team 9 will maybe be scary if Henry and Taylor stay healthy and in major trouble if they don't. Team 8 I would peg as the worst draft; Montgomery is tough to count on as an RB2, the WR picks after Nico were all overvalue at where they were drafted.


*and you're like... top five at best
 


His stats against man and zone coverage are elite. Yeap, he plays for the Jets, but with a pinch of luck this guy is discount Justin Jefferson.
He's hot and cold. Last year he had three games as a top 6 receiver; his next best weekly finish was 18th. He had ten weeks outside the top 24 and yet he's being drafted as a WR1. And last year was by far his best season.
