Shawn Siegele breaks down the first four rounds of his Never-Too-Early Best Ball draft, looking at the best and most controversial picks.

The FFPC’s new best ball contest runs through April 28 and concludes with the NFL draft. With a $25,000 grand prize, it’s the perfect format for RotoViz readers who are familiar with the Best Ball Workshop.

We’ll have more best ball content than ever this spring, and I’m starting out with a fun piece here, looking at a real team I’m drafting with Blair Andrews.

  • Big picture trends: How is the community reacting to 2021 results as they value running backs versus wide receivers.
  • Player evaluations: What are the best and most controversial picks? Where are the tier breaks and how should we manage them?
  • Best ball tactics: How are drafters attempting to build a strong foundation in the early rounds? Given the success of BB Workshop teams in high-dollar events, what are we doing early to create a structure with both upside and flexibility?

Interested in a 2-for-1 deal that will give you access to all of the best ball content from the writing team that scored the top two spots in the 2021 FFPC Best Ball Tournament? The RotoViz Rookie Guide will help you dominate your dynasty leagues but also provide a competitive advantage in early best ball events. The best part? At $20, it also includes a coupon code for 15% off your RotoViz subscription.
