During the first few rounds of a fantasy football draft, managers are selecting the best players in the NFL. These are the stars who are going to anchor your teams, likely for the entirety of the season (unless you have the misfortune of getting bitten by the injury bug).
But just like the on-field product, it takes more than one or two star players to win games in fantasy football. There needs to be depth up and down the roster, with players on the bench ready to fill in when there are injuries or starters who are not meeting expectations.
