Ian Hartitz and Rich Hribar of Sharp Football Analysis draft a full 20-round
FFPC team with a million dollars going to first place. Every pick, every debate,
in real time from the 1.05.

This is tight end premium, so tight ends get 1.5 points per reception. That
changes the board completely, and it is worth saying out loud: do not take Brock
Bowers at 1.05 in your standard PPR home league. The scoring is doing the work.

THE BUILD

McCaffrey over Bowers at 1.05. The running back side has the higher ceiling and
it keeps rounds two through five flexible, because the good backs will be gone by
the time the pick comes back around.

Omarion Hampton in round two locks the backfield down, and that is the last time
they touch the position for eight rounds.

Then they attack the middle of the receiver board and keep going: Jaylen Waddle,
Luther Burden, Parker Washington, Chris Godwin, Quentin Johnston and Matthew
Golden. Sam LaPorta is the tight end in the middle of that run.

Back to running back in round 10 with Rachaad White and Chuba Hubbard. No
quarterback at all until round 12, and then it is Jackson Dart, backed up by
Jared Goff throwing to their own Sam LaPorta in a dome. Ray Davis as the handcuff.
Samaje Perine and James Conner in rounds 18 and 19 to fill the room.

Two more tight ends, because in tight end premium you do not want to be sitting
with one: A.J. Barner and Michael Mayer. Eagles for the defense, with Baltimore
as the fallback Ian calls the skeleton key for the very late rounds.
