10 Moves to Make AFTER You Draft Your Fantasy Team

Your fantasy draft is only the beginning.

You need to make sure you are setting yourself up for success from the moment your draft ends.

So make these 10 moves right after your draft to stay ahead of your friends:

#10 Set up a weekly calendar reminder every Tuesday night

Waivers are where leagues can be won. But life gets crazy with work, family, kids and events. Don’t be the guy who forgets to set waivers by Week 3...

#9 Immediately add 1-2 players to place in your IR spot

Some examples would be Zach Charbonnet & Jordyn Tyson. This gives you a free roster spot for a potential upside player later in the season...

#8 Stash a potential league-winner before Week 1 kicks off

Players like Kaelon Black or Caleb Douglas could gain value instantly Week 1. Get ahead before Wednesday Night’s Opener and stash them now…

#7 Find the best defense to stream Week 1

The Cowboys and Bears are great options. They have good matchups & are available in over 70% of leagues...

#6 Look for uncertain backfields that could clarify Week 1

Backfields like Carolina, Washington or Jacksonville could flip based on just 1 game. Stash the cheaper options now and if they don't produce Week 1 just cut/trade them...

#5 Drop your back-up QB/TE and add an extra 1-2 RBs/WRs

Names to consider:

• Jonah Coleman: 67% available
• Caleb Douglas: 90% available
• Denzel Boston: 70% available
• Woody Marks: 55% available

#4 Make a list of buy-low trade candidates for Week 1

DJ Moore faces the Texans Top 3 secondary Week 1. If he gets shut down, he becomes a buy low candidate attached to Josh Allen

#3 Create a plan for your early-season waiver wire budget

Tip: Don’t overreact to Week 1 big WR/TE performances

Instead save your budget for impactful RBs who can actually win you a league...

#2 Identify your early-season trade partners

If you drafted an RB-heavy team, make note of WR-heavy rosters you could trade with in 1-2 weeks. Start a conversation now with the goal of it being a win-win scenario…
