Why you need to make ‘shooting for the stars' your go-to fantasy football draft strategy
How do we measure success in drafting our fantasy football players? Answering that question is a key to ranking and ultimately selecting them. It's fantasy football podcast season for me. Given what I do here, I unplug once we get closer to the season. I want to develop my own player takes and theories that I investigate for proof of concept with the objective data. But right now, people are talking more generally about their ranking process, and I'm more interested in that than in the player takes. Advertisement One of the smartest fantasy football podcasts is Underdog Fantasy's 'Fantasy Football with Josh and Hayden.' When smart people say something that runs contrary to your process, it makes you think. On a recent show, in discussing the value of DeVonta Smith, they cited his current ADP (they had his ADP at WR27) and their point, very reasonably, was that Smith is pretty much guaranteed to again be a top 24 WR and probably no worse than WR20; so that's a win. But that's not how I rank. I have Smith at WR28 in my rankings, even though I agree he'll finish higher. In my write-up of Smith, I said he's a great WR4 in a Flex 10 build. He has a beneficial ceiling in the format, but there's no difference between Smith and Jordan Addison, who is WR36, so I'd wait for Addison. Smith is stuck in the WR3 fantasy bucket. He can't escape his tier. He can't crush Addison in value just like Addison can't crush the other WRs with them in the third tier of WRs. I'm not looking to break even or generate some small profit in scoring when I draft a player. I want players who I think have a chance to escape their tier, which is why I'm in the minority in ranking Jakobi Meyers over Smith (and Addison). Meyers could escape the third tier because he could see 150 targets in his offense. It's tough to conceive of Smith getting much more than 100, and efficiency only goes so far in our game unless you are a big-time TD producer, which Smith is not. So I would never proactively take Smith (absent a Jalen Hurts stack) over Addison because both are stuck in their tier, and Addison is drafted so much later that he has a WR4 price with a reasonable expectation of a WR3 return. I want my WR4 to have a WR5 or lower price (Rashod Bateman). I want the RB I pick around No. 30 at the position to have the chance to be an RB2 (Isiah Pacheco, for example). Advertisement Why shoot for the moon when you can shoot for the stars, knowing you can fall short and still get the moon? Shooting for the stars means factoring in expected opportunity. Where Smith goes in drafts, multiple receivers are likely to lead their team's wide receivers in targets — DK Metcalf, Courtland Sutton, Jauan Jennings, Meyers and even Jerry Jeudy (whose QB situation petrifies me, but he's locked in as the WR1 on the Browns). The same goes for RBs. Why would I take Omarion Hampton at RB17 when he's probably not going to get close to bell-cow touches and when there's a clearer path to that happening with later drafted RBs? For example, Joe Mixon, Quinshon Judkins (ignoring his potential legal issues), Pacheco, Tony Pollard, etc. I'm not necessarily telling you to agree with the players, but I hope you agree with my rankings process. My weekly in-season 'Market Share Report' column is such a valuable tool because we see who is getting opportunities that defy their consensus ranking and who is falling well short of those key benchmarks — 30% of touches per offensive snap for RBs, 25% of team targets for wide receivers and 20% of targets for TEs. It's hard to find players who can break out of their tiers. You'll be wrong more than you're right. But when you're wrong, you can still break even on the cost. I will eat a bug if a healthy Meyers and Jennings fall significantly short of their current ADPs, for example. You don't want to be right, technically. You want to be EMPHATICALLY right. Drafting just one or two players who escape their tiers can help you win your league. (Photo of Jakobi Meyers: Matthew Hinton / Imagn Images)

Why Kadyn Proctor makes his cologne passion his Alabama football mission: 'You can't stink'
ATLANTA − Most SEC media days questions Kadyn Proctor faced were about Alabama football, whether it was the Crimson Tide's planned response for its four-loss 2024 season, the state of the offensive line or Alabama's quarterback battle. But when someone began to ask about Proctor's collection of cologne, the Alabama junior offensive tackle's eyes lit up. His passion came alive, one that has turned into a mission for not only the rest of the Crimson Tide offensive line, but for the rest of the roster. "How I see it is, if you're a big guy, you can't stink," Proctor, who's up to 170 bottle of cologne in his collection, said. "You got to be fresh, man. Because the narrative right now is if you're big, you stink, you smell, you're sweaty. That's not how it goes for me. That's why I be saying flip the narrative." Proctor, wearing Audemars Puguet cologne at SEC media days per SiriusXM, said his collection began in elementary school when his father would put on Proctor so he could "smell good for the ladies." Proctor's fascination has carried over to the rest of the Alabama roster. "I wouldn't say just the offensive line," Proctor said. "It's everybody. Everybody's getting into it now." Wilkin Formby, Alabama's right tackle and Proctor's roommate, has 70-to-80 bottles himself. "(We) feed off each other," Proctor said. Proctor clarified he doesn't have his own brand of cologne, nor does he have a Name, Image and Likeness deal associated with any cologne company, something he isn't counting out. For now, Proctor continues to push fresh smells to the rest of the Alabama roster. "The obsession continues, for sure," Proctor said.

🔙Mbappé, one year since his Real Madrid unveiling
On this day, the Santiago Bernabéu was dressed up to receive a highly anticipated signing. There were nerves, many things had happened and many years had passed, but he was finally in Madrid. Today, just a year ago, Kylian Mbappé was presented as a white player. In a packed Santiago Bernabéu, the Frenchman wore the team's jersey for the first time. Two titles and over 40 goals in his first year are very respectable numbers. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
