  • 12-team Non-PPR mock draft review May 9, 2013
    In about a month, I will be whipping up my initial and early Draft Plan, which will simply cover all the positions and how to approach them. In the summer, I’ll tweak that and quadruple the size of the article, as I always do in the summer. That will cover a plan of action by position, go pick-by-pick through the first 10 rounds, and much more. But in order […]

  • Very, very, very, early rookie keeper rankings April 28, 2013
