We'll start with key stats (2:40) about the wide receiver position. Most Top 12 WRs are drafted in the first six rounds and the quality of their offense matters! Should you draft a #2 WR on a great offense or a #1 WR on a bad offense? Also, is it safer to draft a running back or a WR in Rounds 2-3 (8:00)? The answer may surprise you! ... We've got preseason takeaways (13:00) and then we compare ADP on FantasyPros to ADP on NFC since August 1st (16:45). There are key differences you need to know about! ... Getting into average draft position for WRs beginning in Round 1 (20:40) as we debate Justin Jefferson vs. Cooper Kupp. In Round 2 and Round 3 (29:50), we have established veterans like Mike Evans, Keenan Allen and Tyreek Hill vs. potential breakouts like D.J. Moore and Michael Pittman. Who do we prefer? As we take you through Rounds 4 (42:40), 5 (46:40) and 6 (52:30), you'll see that ADP doesn't matter so much. Go get your guy! And who do we like in Round 7 and beyond (57:30)? Rashod Bateman, Allen Lazard and Drake London could be great picks ... Email us at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com

Let's take a look at the wide receiver position with some strategies, trends and players we love. Dave, Jamey and Heath give an overall assessment of the 2022 WR class to start the show (2:30) before telling you when in Round 1 to draft Justin Jefferson, Cooper Kupp and Ja'Marr Chase (6:45). Also, they fill in the blank: I would like to draft ____ of my top ____ WRs (7:50) ... How do strategies change in 2-WR leagues vs. 3-WR leagues (16:25)? We also have some running back notes that are potentially important (18:45) and then we cover 15 WRs in five minutes (25:05)! Get some quick thoughts on Davante Adams, Deebo Samuel, A.J.

From Jonathan Taylor to Ezekiel Elliott to Khalil Herbert and beyond, we'll tell you about the best and worst values in Fantasy drafts! We start with some Fantasy Fun Facts (0:50) on the 2022 RB class including why age 27 has been unkind to RBs in recent seasons, why Tony Pollard might deserve more carries (5:30) and what Elijah Mitchell did last season that was so unusual (7:45) ... Reviewing our recent pick-by-pick series (11:15), we'll take a look at five different teams in a 12-team league and how they built their RB depth. Dave proves you can love your RBs if you wait until the 3/4 turn to select your first two. Then we get into average draft position beginning with RBs in Round 1 (23:30). Should Christian McCaffrey be first overall? Who is most likely to be a bust? Round 2 (32:30) has some incredible value picks like Alvin Kamara and Aaron Jones ... Moving on to the Round 3 RBs (41:55), are they too risky to justify as third round picks? Then we move on to Rounds 4-5 (46:40) which is fairly exciting, Round 6 (54:50) which is terrible and a couple more rounds before we focus on the best RBs after pick 100 (1:04:00) including some key rookies (1:09:35) ...

On the first of two parts in our running backs preview, we look at the broader picture and assess the position while looking at some noteworthy trends. Dave and Heath tell you what they're looking for in a Round One RB (4:26) and what the best RB strategy is (6:55). Is it Zero-RB? Hero-RB? Dave-RB? Within this discussion we talk about how your strategy might change in a 2-WR vs. 3-WR league ... We've got some interesting RB stats for you to consider (18:00)! How many Top 12 RBs are drafted in the first two rounds? How many Top 24 RBs were drafted after Round 7? How should this impact your draft? And we are seeing a decline in RB catches over the last few seasons (22:15) and we'll discuss what this means for 2022 ... We talk about how strategies change in different formats (27:15) like non PPR and 0.5 PPR and different league sizes. Is there more of a premium on RB in deeper leagues? Then let's do some sleepers (40:00), breakouts (43:10) and busts (48:00)! And we finish with 15 RBs in five minutes (56:10) as we give you some quick hits on key RBs like D'Andre Swift, Aaron Jones, Saquon Barkley, Nick Chubb, Antonio Gibson and more...

We start the show with a discussion about the preseason. How much does it matter? What are we looking for that could actually make an impact on our rankings? Then Heath and tell you who is on the rise! Heath has Christian McCaffrey #1 ahead of Jonathan Taylor in PPR (6:15)! We talk about how many games we need from CMC for this to be justified. Dave, meanwhile, is moving Michael Thomas up (12:30)! Is he a Top 12 WR now? ... Big news (15:35) as Kareem Hunt has requested a trade and Matthew Stafford had an encouraging practice.
