Every fantasy sports draft is about being able to detect value better than your competitors. The ability to snag a player a few rounds after his end-of-year numbers will dictate is the key that can set up a team for a playoff run.

Drafting for value – and not star names – is the key to any fantasy football championship.

Don’t pay for big names in fantasy drafts. Instead, find value in lesser known players with comparable, or in some cases, better statistics.
