Fantasy Football: Perfect draft strategy for picking wide receivers in 2023

  • The mid-to-late first round in fantasy football drafts is a good place to start at wide receiver: There are plenty of options with a history of success that should continue to succeed this season
  • The fourth round has excellent options that just weren’t always available: A few wide receivers that were among the top-five at the position last time they were healthy are available at a discount.
  • Wide receiver is the deepest position in fantasy football: There are significantly more players at wide receiver than quarterback, running back and tight end who have both great talent, and significant playing time.
