I always suggest that fantasy owners create "A PLAN"...
1 - Know your scoring rules - ppr?
2 - Understand how to best leverage the lineup (how many WRs/TEs/Flex) can you start?
3 - Get familiar with ADP and recent mocks to "gauge" where the position runs are happening and plot your strategy
4 - Leave Homer on the couch
Are you hell bent on drafting a top 5 QB? A top 5 TE? If no to either of those, then you already know you can avoid drafting either position in the first 5-6 rounds.
That means you can focus our first 4-5 picks on WR and RB.
Can you start 3 WRs - if so, the PPR factor is huge. You know who the top 8-10 RBs are and they'll be gone by the start of R3.
So, if your league favors big time WRs - you know there are really only 10 of them out there (maybe), so get 2 of them.
You can focus on RBs like Grant, Thomas, Best, Charles (maybe, but not in a KC homer league), Addai, Greene, McCoy, Benson, Brown, Forte, Matthews (maybe) all in R3-4.
A lot of those guys are at minimum equal to Charles... so, don't take someone early just because he's the best player on your team ... especially if there are better options at WR.
Just my $.02 ... let owners reach for players early, stick to your strategy and you'll enjoy fantasy football and watching KC games a lot more.
