First, who do you think are some sleepers out there for later rounds?

Watching Travis Etienne’s first preseason game, he’s gonna get a lot of touches. Thinking this may be a good pick up in later rounds.

Lastly, what’s a good strategy that’s worked for you?

For me, I’ve won two leagues in the past by having a QB combo with a weapon. For example drafting Travis Kielce/and Mahomes back to back was a big factor for me winning once. I’m thinking I’d want Mahomes or Josh Allen as my QB, but if they go before I can pick them up, I’m thinking maybe something like Carr/Adam’s, or Herbert/Kennan Allen.

Any tips/suggestions welcome. TIA

Etienne is going in the 3rd-4th round range from what I am seeing...

Tyler Allgeier and Isiah Pacheco are the two late RB's I'm keeping an eye on.

Romeo Doubs has been getting buzz at Packers camp, but Christian Watson was the 34th pick in the draft and just got taken off the PUP. Feels like Watson could provide some value late in drafts.

Again, these are all late-round rookies that you hope see enough volume and will probably need to hold onto in order to make an impact.

My first suggestion would be do to scan a top 150 list or two so you know the general area that guys are going to go. Going into a draft planning to get Travis Etienne in the 9th is probably not going to end well.

My advice beyond that is to make your own rankings, at least within each position. The time to decide between chris godwin and mike thomas is not when you're on the clock.

I don’t like the qb/wr stack anymore. So many injuries these days that you can get screwed quickly.

I’ve been going with the QB/RB stack. I feel it hedges your bet with an injury bc they lean on the other aspect of their game during the few weeks one is out.

Herbert/Eckler stack is gold.

But even Dak/Zeke, Lamar/JK, Russ/Den RB, Brady/LF7, etc. are solid combos without a lot of draft capital. Those can be achieved and still not use a top pick.
