Esports has enjoyed a large bump in popularity in the last five to 10 years.
Last week was a dive into the value of wide receivers based on the potency of their offense and whether they are the first or third option. This week will compare rostering an elite defense or looking for a defense with a good matchup every week, also known as streaming.
Last night, how to pick a flex player was the talking point for the opening fantasy football segment. This time around, the point of emphasis is on how third option wide receivers on the top five offenses compare to the number one receivers of the worst five offenses. This was done a little tongue-in- cheek, of course the number one option was going to be better than the third option. Bad offenses need to give the ball to someone and will still have about the same amount of possessions as the top tier teams. This has been my orthodox method for years— start the player who will lead his team in targets. The explosiveness of the team itself does not matter as much as that of the player— something most people will realize when they look at the numbers.
