This Unpopular Tactic in FFPC Best Ball Drafts Can Spike Win Rates

One of the best things about drafting in FFPC leagues is the tight end premium. For those unfamiliar, TE-premium scoring gives 1.5 PPR to TEs compared to the 1.0 PPR every other player on the roster receives per reception. While it may seem like a subtle edge, it's one that can work wonders when exploited properly.
