FFWC World Championship Draft Review
Another fantasy football draft season is already underway at the Fantasy Football World Championship. Some of the best and brightest in the FFWC world joined an early Fantasy Football World Championship draft. This FFWC World Championship Draft Review recaps the draft. FFWC World Championship Leagues World Championship Leagues are a great way to start off your 2025 draft season. FFWC leagues are full-season leagues where you set a lineup each week, with FAAB and FCFS roster management. Drafters get a convenient chance to show off their skills from their own homes or LIVE in Las Vegas while playing to become the ultimate fantasy football champion. In FFWC World Championship leagues, you can win $12,000 for simply winning your league of 12, with a grand prize of $150,000! These are 20-round drafts that use PPR scoring. Starting lineups include 1 QB – 2 RB – 3 WR – 1 TE – 2 FLEX (RB-WR-TE) – 1 DST. No trades are allowed. Here are the results from a recent FFWC draft. Roster Construction As is typical in FFWC drafts, quarterbacks were targeted later than expected. The first QB, Lamar Jackson, wasn’t selected until the 63rd pick. After the ‘Big 5’ went in Rounds 6-7, we didn’t see another signal-caller drafted until Bo Nix got drafted with the 126th pick! 95% of the first 60 picks were RBs or WRs. This season, it feels like there is more value in drafting from the back end. Teams 8-10 loaded up on running backs, taking rushers with nine of their first 12 total picks in the first four rounds. Meanwhile, Teams 4-7 went the other way, selecting WRs with an incredible 14 of their first 16 combined picks (87.5%). That heavy reliance on a particular position led to some unique and distinct builds. It also resulted in some picks that stood out as both good and bad values. Draft Bargains Jonathan Taylor (3.9) – Taylor is a dark horse to lead the league in rushing. This is as late as I’ve seen Taylor go. Excellent value for Lyons. Kyren Williams (3.10) – Every summer, fantasy football wants to write off Kyren Williams due to his metrics. However, all he has done is be a phenomenal fantasy back. And his recent extension should quell concerns about Jarquez Hunter or Blake Corum (ha) eating into his monster 87% snap share. Jakobi Meyers (7.11) – Meyers was WR20 last season and WR27 in 2023. He got an upgraded coaching staff, running game, and a significantly improved quarterback. Meyers is still the team’s WR1 and should remain heavily targeted by Geno Smith. One of my favorite WR3 targets, yet Team 11 got him as a WR5. Jerome Ford (12.7) – Quinshon Judkins remains unsigned, with no timetable for/when he’ll play. Ford is in a prime position to open the season as Cleveland’s starter, possibly splitting touches with Dylan Sampson. Ford was RB16 in 2023 and RB33 last year. Excellent value as the RB55. Questionable Selections Zach Charbonnet (RB30) – What are we doing here? In games where Kenneth Walker played, Charbonnet averaged just four carries. This is at least two rounds too early unless you rostered Walker. I don’t see Charbonnet having standalone value, making him a poor choice as a team’s RB2. Speaking of Walker, he was an excellent draft bargain for Mr. Yellow Stickers at RB17. Dont’e Thronton (WR48) – I’m a fan of Thornton. Scooped him up as a fourth-round value in multiple dynasty rookie drafts. But targeting the rookie as a low-end WR4? I respect Frankie and think he’s one of the sharpest minds out there, but it feels like Thornton could have been drafted several rounds later. Colston Loveland (TE6) – This is spicy. I actually like Loveland- a lot. But this team might have been better served by adding to their lack of WR depth. I don’t hate this pick, just wanted to include it in this write-up as a risk/reward move. Jard Goff (QB10) – In what looks to be a dynasty-influenced build, I question the logic in taking a QB2 this early. Worse, I have Goff some 10 spots lower than this. He lost his play-caller and faces a tougher schedule, including six outdoor games. This team is loaded up on Lions, and if Goff regresses, it will struggle. Top Contenders Team 7 – Even after starting off with four straight wide receivers, this team got a pair of values (James Conner/Tony Pollard) at running back. In addition, they secured the game’s top QB as the third signal-caller. Team 4 – Love the first four wideouts, then the targeting of this talented rookie RB class. BOOMCRUSH also got a good tight end and nice value in QB Dak Prescott. Team 11 – This team got what I call my ‘dram start’, opening with Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. They also snagged Trey McBride in Round 3, giving them my top tight end and two of my top-5 wideouts. However, the running back room is terrible, with no team starters and a heavy reliance on handcuffs. Teams 9-12 are also positioned well. WARNING! Don’t let a fancy website fool you!

FFWC Starter League Draft Review
While NFL training camps still haven’t opened, fantasy football draft season is already underway at the Fantasy Football World Championship. Some of the best and brightest in the FFWC world joined an early Starter League. This FFWC Starter League Draft Review recaps the draft. FFWC Full Season Starter Leagues FFWC Starter Leagues are a great way to start off your 2025 draft season. Starter leagues are full-season leagues where you set a lineup each week, with FAAB and FCFS roster management. They are a great way to introduce new players to the wonderful world of high-stakes, competitive prize league fantasy football. They have a $50 entry, with $500 in prizes per league and a grand prize of over $1500! These are 18-round drafts that use PPR scoring. Starting lineups include 1 QB – 2 RB – 3 WR – 1 TE – 1 FLEX (RB-WR-TE) – 1 DST (No kickers). No trades are allowed. Here are the results from a recent Starter League draft. Roster Construction With full PPR scoring and the ability to start three running backs or four wide receivers, quarterbacks plummeted down the draft board. In an era of Superflex roster construction, this seems unusual. However, it is the right approach in this format. 13 of the first 20 picks were wide receivers. The first signal caller, Josh Allen, wasn’t taken until the first pick of Round 6. With the QB position being so deep, waiting on quarterback, and attacking the needed positional depth was the strategy du jour. In fact, two teams had yet to take a starting quarterback in the first 12 rounds! This shows how deep the position is this season, and is a fascinating example of just how much draft strategy can change from league to league. Draft Bargains James Conner (5.10) – Conner’s FFWC ADP is 54.8 as RB19. Los Lobos got a nice bargain with Conner falling a few spots, but all the way down to RB25 looks tremendous. Conner has finished as RB15, RB13, and RB9 in PPR points per game in his last three seasons. Calvin Ridley (7.09) – With abysmal quarterback play last year, Ridley still drew 120 targets and finished as the WR27 in full-point PPR leagues. Ridley has posted back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons, and Cam Ward is substantially better than any QB the Titans had in 2024. He’s a top-25 wideout on my board. Jakobi Meyers (8.03) – Three years in a row, Meyers has been a top-30 fantasy wideout in PPR points per game. He ranked 20th last year, and that was sharing targets with Brock Bowers. The Raiders have a huge upgrade at quarterback with Geno Smith, and the addition of RB Ashton Jeanty should also help the passing attack. Snagging Meyers as the 43rd wideout is a strong +EV move. Team 1 late-round WR – I love that Mad Dads didn’t waste a draft pick on a kicker or defense. Smart move in a league that has waivers open before Week 1. I love three of his final four picks: Xavier Legette, Devaughn Vele, and Amari Cooper. These are potential depth pieces, making them excellent late-round dart throws. Questionable Selections Chris Godwin WR22– I rostered Godwin everywhere last year, so I know he’s a stud. But his current FFWC ADP is WR30. It’s a risk/reward pick, and I’m a fan of Godwin. But it feel like Godwin could have waited another round-especially if there was no plan to stack with Baker Mayfield. Mike Evans WR17 – There’s nothing wrong with Evans at WR17. That is his current FFWC ADP. However, Terry McLaurin’s is WR16 and would have been a sweet stack with Respected Money’s QB, Jayden Daniels. I’m sure he didn’t know Daniels would last until Round 6, which is understandable. Brian Robinson RB22 – I don’t get this one at all. Robinson’s FFWC ADP is 83.7 as RB30. He ranked 30th with 11.7 PPR points per game last season. I would have taken each of the next five running backs selected before Robinson, who went three full rounds earlier than his ADP suggests. Joe Burrow QB4 – This is not a bad pick at all, I just wanted to point out that Lucky Mike savagely prevented Mad Dads from stacking Burrow with the overall 1.01, Ja’Marr Chase. All part of the fun, but that must’ve hurt. Speaking of hurt, Jalen Hurts wasn’t a bad consolation prize two spots later. Jordan Love QB14 – Nothing wrong with the value here, just don’t like the idea of clogging up the roster with three good signal-callers in a league without trades. I do like the addition of Kareem Hunt two rounds later. Cedric Tillman WR49 – Tillman’s current ADP is 165.1 as WR67. Nice late-round target, but not in Round 9. Top Contenders Team 1 – Aside from the Burrow snipe, Mad Dads compiled a nice roster, with plenty of late-round values. RB depth is light, but he did a good job attacking depth in Rounds 11-14. Team 4- I love this team’s start, with two quality backs and three solid wideouts right out of the gate. Pirate Munkees punted tight end and still managed to land two decent options. He was also the last team to target QB, but still got a quality tandem in Drake Maye and C.J. Stroud Team 8 – Any FFWC veteran knows Respected Money is going to be a force. Even with Mike Evans over Terry McLaurin, this team’s first dozen picks were solid. Additionally, we know this team will be well managed all year long, making them a force to e reckoned with. Team 10 – Los Lobos picked Godwin a little early, but made up for it with excellent value recognition. They have quality depth, but can we talk about Kyle Pitts SZN yet? Team 12 – Always Smooth is a formidable opponent. This draft shows that. He got Christian McCaffrey in Round 2, then was able to handcuff him with Isaac Guerendo in Round 12. He

As a known fantasy fiend, I am through eight FullTime Fantasy Championship Drafts over at the FFWC. In that time, I found some very nice values in the ADP that I have been mining in the draft room. I want to share my FullTime Fantasy Championship ADP Values with FullTime Fantasy Members to help you get a leg up on your draft day. This is premium content and I probably shouldn’t be sharing this with you all…But that’s what they pay me to do.
The FullTime Fantasy Championship is a contest where the top-4 finishers in each league after Week 14 advance to the Championship Round (Weeks 15-17). This is a PPR league with kickers, defenses, and two (non-QB) flex spots. A 20-round draft gets rosters started, with NO TRADES allowed.
What separates the FullTime Fantasy Championship from others is that it offers THE HIGHEST RETURN ON INVESTMENT FOR ANY NATIONAL COMPETITION!
ONLINE DRAFTS are already underway and you can choose your preferred time or a SLOW draft. You can also register for the LIVE EVENTS that will take place at the CIRCA HOTEL in Las Vegas! But act fast as this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity won’t last long!
Now, let’s check out some of my favorite ADP values to exploit in FullTime Fantasy Championship drafts.
Quarterbacks
Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills) QB3 (Round 5.3)
On most other sites Allen is going in the late third round as the QB3. However, Allen is being targeted a full two rounds earlier. Stud QBs are en vogue in 2023. That said, having the ability to build the core of your team and then add the back-to-back overall QB1 in fantasy ppg is criminal!
It’s always fascinating to see different draft strategies play out in various formats. But this season, there has been a premium placed on elite signal callers. That’s why I feel nabbing Allen in the fifth round is a tremendous value I’m more than happy to exploit.

Red vs. Blue Draft Review
While NFL training camps still haven’t opened, fantasy football draft season is well underway. This Red vs. Blue Draft Review recaps some of the sharpest high-stakes drafters in the world. The annual Red vs. Blue draft dates back to 2009 and was the first draft to be live streamed with pick-by-pick commentary. Red vs. Blue was cutting edge, featuring draft strategy and roster construction advice from some of the best fantasy football players in the world. 13 years after it started, the Red vs. Blue tradition continued into 2022. This season’s draft took place live on Youtube and did not disappoint. Here is my review of the 2022 FFWC Red vs. Blue Live Draft. Click below to watch the action with our own Scott Atkins and Billy Muzio. Red vs. Blue Draft This year, we’ve teamed up with Player Profiler to make the Red vs. Blue draft part of the Player Profiler Championship. The Player Profiler Championship boasts a $50,000 Grand Prize and the BEST RETURN ON INVESTMENT OF ANY NATIONAL CONTEST, ANYWHERE! The PlayerProfiler Championship (Formerly Online Championship) is a fantasy football contest comprised of individual leagues of 12. The best teams from each league will compete in weeks 15-17 to be crowned PlayerProfiler Champion and Grand Prize Winner. It’s a full 12-person league with 20-man rosters and full PPR scoring. The starting lineup consists of 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, and 2 FLEX (non-QB) spots. Waivers run weekly in a blind bid format. Here is how the 2022 Red vs. Blue draft went down, with some of my thoughts and analysis. Roster Construction With the ability to start up to five wide receivers in full PPR scoring, it was no surprise to see wideouts flying off the board. Four were nabbed in the first round alone and 97 (40%) total receivers were drafted. 11 of the 12 managers drafted more wide receivers than any other position, with the one hold out choosing a balanced 6-6-3 build. Two teams selected nine receivers while a pair also drafted 10. Because waivers open up prior to Week 1, some savvy managers chose not to waste a valuable roster spot on a kicker or defense. Others oddly drafted two of each, which seems contradictory in a league with weekly transactions. The wildly different ideas of how to construct a championship squad should certainly lead to a fascinating season. Draft Bargains Chase Edmonds (7.12, RB32) – Looking at the latest update of FullTime Fantasy’s 2022 fantasy football rankings, Edmonds as RB32 is a solid value. As the offseason has worn on, Edmonds’ value is on the rise. Edmonds excelled in zone-blocking concepts and that’s precisely the system Mike McDaniel will bring to Miami. He’s got RB2 upside and is screaming value as a mid-round #zeroRB target. Damien Harris (8.06, RB35) – Harris finished last season as the RB14 mainly due to his nose for the end zone. While he’s extremely limited as a receiver, Harris was a consistent source of fantasy production. He double-digit fantasy points in 10 of his final 11 starts. Bill Belichick trusts Harris in short-yardage so he should be in line to top double-digit TDs once again. He won’t catch many passes but Harris is a solid RB3 or flex option in this format. Marvin Jones (14.04, WR71) – The overall WR33 in a lost 2021, Jones flashed a solid rapport with QB Trevor Lawrence. 24th in the league with 118 targets, Jones is a sneaky bet to lead the Jags in that category once again. While Christian Kirk will certainly be a factor, the Jaguars have nowhere to go but up with Doug Pederson at the helm. I like Jones as a very good late-round sleeper with flex appeal in this type of league. Evan Engram (16.09, TE22) – Speaking of Pederson, a hallmark of his past offenses was a heavy reliance on the tight end. Pederson’s squads regularly led the league in ’12’ formations. They also have produced a top-10 fantasy TE in six of his last seven seasons. There is almost no downside to targeting Engram this late in a draft. Doug Pederson’s TEs in PPR pts/game: 2013- Fasano 6.8 (39th) 2014- Kelce 11.5 (9th) 2015- Kelce 11.8 (9th) 2016- Ertz 13.1 (3rd) 2017- Ertz 14.6 (3rd) 2018- Ertz 17.5 (2nd) 2019- Ertz 14.4 (4th) 2019- Goedert 9.9 (13th) 2020- Goedert 10.6 (10th) Evan Engram current ADP TE24 — #TagsStrong💪#SFB12 (@JodySmithNFL) June 21, 2022 Questionable Selections Jaylen Waddle (3.08. WR16) – Volume was the catalyst that drove Waddle to a surprising WR12 rookie campaign. But the additions of Chase Edmonds, Tyreek Hill, and Cedrick Wilson will make it impossible for Waddle to repeat. Hill and Wison alone racked up 221 targets in 2021 and Edmonds looks like a good bet for 50-plus grabs. I really like Waddle as a player but don’t see any way he can approach WR16 numbers. Especially with an underwhelming and unproven Tua Tagovailoa taking snaps. Russell Wilson (9.03, QB5) – I actually love Wilson and don’t have issues with taking him as a top-5 signal-caller. But one round after taking Kyler Murray as the QB4, this makes no sense. Later, this same team took the first place kicker a full three rounds earlier than any other kicker. Amazingly, this same franchise took that next kicker, Arizona’s, at least six spots too high. Throw in two additional roster spots wasted on defenses and you get a roster with precious little depth after a tremendous start. Dawson Knox (11.09, TE11) – We’re pretty cool on Knox this season, mainly because his touchdown rate isn’t sustainable. The Bills added James Cook, Jamison Crowder, and another TE in O.J. Howard to siphon targets away, too. While snagging Knox as the TE11 in the 11th round is not egregious at all, taking him as your third tight end when you only had two wideouts rostered is. Top Contenders Team 8 – Ja’Marr Chase and Mike Evans every week? Yes, please. Ezekiel Elliott was also the RB7 in 2021 and is being overlooked this summer. This team added a pair of solid
Fantasy Football World Championship Draft Review August 1, 2021
Fulltime’s newest Senior Analyst, Jody Smith (@JodySmithNFL on Twitter) breaks down a World Championship Draft with a fantasy football draft review completed August 1st, 2021. Reviewing the first FFWC Draft of 2021 Now that the calendar reads August, football fans can rejoice that training camps are in progress and the fantasy football draft season has, at long last, begun. Among the fantasy football drafts that have kicked off, the prestigious Fantasy Football World Championship draft season is in full swing and the inaugural 2021 draft is in the books. Well-known as the preeminent format in the industry, FFWC leagues boast over $12K in prizes, with the overall winner taking home a massive $150K grand prize and title of Fantasy Football World Champion. FFWC drafts use PPR scoring and involve 12 fantasy fans battling it out in a 20-round live draft. Lineups include a single quarterback, 2 RB, 3 WR, 2 FLEX spots, a team defense, and one team kicker. With the first FFWC draft now completed, here are some of the takeaways as 12 eager fantasy fans get ready to battle it out over the next five months. Draft Bargains Aaron Jones (2.02, RB10) – Now that we know Aaron Rodgers will return for at least one more season in Green Bay, all the Packers’ skill position players are on the rise. Jones is coming off of consecutive top-5 seasons and now stands to gain a larger role in the passing game after Jamaal Williams signed with Detroit. Any time Jones slides into Round 2, he’s a solid value. Saquon Barkley (2.04, RB11) – Even though there are concerns about Barkley’s surgically-repaired knee, he is still generally considered a first-round talent and top-5 fantasy running backs. As the 11th running back selected in this FFWC draft, Barkley looks like a tremendous bargain. A.J. Brown (3.02, WR10) – Among the favorites to lead the NFL in receiving touchdowns, Brown broke out with a 70/1,073/11 campaign in 2020 and could be even better in 2021 with new teammate Julio Jones commanding a lot more attention from opposing defensive backs. Brown has top-5 upside and looks like a steal being selected after Keenan Allen and Terry McLaurin. Miles Sanders (5.05, RB24) – Sanders had some issue with drops during his rookie campaign, but he still managed to snag 50 passes, rank 9th with 1.67 yards created per attempt, and lead the NFL in runs of 70-plus yards. Sanders also has a clear path to RB1 duties on a team that should be significantly better. That makes the third-year back look like an excellent value pick a full two rounds later than he would normally be targeted. Kareem Hunt (6.05, RB26) – In 24 games with Cleveland, Hunt has averaged 13.3 PPR points per game, caught 75 passes, and scored 14 touchdowns despite being used as his team’s RB2. Hunt offers standalone RB2 value on a weekly basis but offers top-10 upside if Nick Chubb were to miss time. James Conner (11.05, RB45) – Chase Edmonds, who was drafted a full five rounds earlier, had all of two games with double-digit carries last season and averaged just 3.2 yards per carry in those contests. This staff seems to know that Edmonds is small and better utilized in a change-of-pace role. Conner has battled injuries but been sneaky good. According to Fantasy Index, Conner has put up 1,739 scrimmage yards and scored 13 touchdowns in the past 16 games in which he received two-thirds of Pittsburgh’s snaps. At 233 pounds, Conner also looks like the clear favorite for goal-line duties in Kingsbury’s offense, which has averaged 20 rushing TDs per season in the NFL. Questionable Selections Travis Etienne (3.10, RB18) – It isn’t unusual for first-round running backs to be a hot commodity in fantasy football drafts. But as talented as Etienne was at Clemson, he has an undefined NFL role and joins a Jacksonville squad with a rookie signal-caller, first-year head coach, and who already has an established starting running back in James Robinson. It’s difficult to forecast Etienne to receive enough touches to justify top-20 billing ahead of safer bets like J.K. Dobbins and Chris Carson. — (Scott likes this exciting high ceiling pick. “It’s boom or bust baby!”) Ja’ Marr Chase (4.12, WR18) – When you’re trying to win a league like the FFWC, you have to be willing to take chances but nabbing a rookie wideout in the fourth round with plenty of dependable veteran pass-catchers like Julio Jones, Adam Thielen, and D.J. Moore still on the board is awfully risky. Robby Anderson (5.04, WR26) – The addition of QB Sam Darnold, who showed excellent chemistry with Anderson in New York, should help, but the Panthers look like a bottom-third passing offense and Anderson will be hard-pressed to get 136 targets again with RB Christian McCaffrey back in the fold. Ronald Jones (7.03, RB29) – With all 22 starters returning after a Super Bowl win, there’s little reason to think that Bruce Arians will change his backfield committee approach. The problem for Jones is that it appeared that Leonard Fournette moved into the ‘1A’ role late in the 2020 season and Arians also added receiving specialist Giovani Bernard to the fold. Jones will have a tough time carving out a consistent weekly role, making him a poor choice as a top-30 fantasy back. Zach Ertz (10.08, TE9) – Ertz, 30, has seen his production slip in three consecutive seasons and has been rumored to be a trade candidate all offseason. For now, Ertz is still in Philadelphia but that’s not necessarily good news for his fantasy outlook. Dallas Goedert appears to be ahead of Ertz in the pecking order now and the Eagles have added a ton of young wideouts. It’s hard to envision Ertz being anything more than a mediocre TE2 in this offense, but certainly not a top-10 option. Deshaun Watson (17.03, QB16) – Grabbing a potential stud quarterback in the 17th round is by no means an egregious pick, but Watson
