The 2023 fantasy season has ended, but we’re already hard at work on the 2024 campaign.
Predicting fantasy football outcomes with 60% or so directional accuracy across a full season is a win – even if you do it in September. Trying to forecast the upcoming season in February-April is a tall task.
Obviously, drafting best ball teams before free agency, the NFL Draft, and schedule release has known risks involved. These rankings are going to change drastically in May.
Underdog Contests
Underdog Fantasy is offering season-long best ball tournaments – The Big ($10) and Little ($3) Board.
Crucially, there are 20 rounds in these pre-NFL Draft contests. This is different from your typical 18-round Best Ball Mania-style leagues. Because we’re drafting with such limited information, Underdog gives us two extra roster slots.
You’ll want to draft between 2-3 QBs / 5-8 RBs / 7-10 WRs / 2-3 TEs.
In the Big Board, you’ll need to finish in the top 3 of your 12-person league from Weeks 1-14 to advance to the Quarterfinals round (Week 15).
In the Little Board, the top-4 scoring teams in each league advance to the Quarterfinals.
All pre-NFL Draft contests will close on April 25.
Good luck (early) drafting!
