What’s going on with Austin Seferian-Jenkins? I mean, other than getting kicked out of practice, quittting and rejoining Twitter, and disappointing thus far in his career?

Early picks in fantasy drafts are important, but the winners hit on the late-round picks that greatly outproduce their cost. Late-round picks don’t get the same attention the early-round selections do, but there are certainly some ADPs to exploit in best-ball formats this season.
