Hacking the draft room: How to exploit ESPN and Yahoo tight end fantasy rankings using ADP – The Athletic

The definition of discount is a deduction from the usual cost of something, typically given for prompt or advance payment or to a special category of buyers.

I consider my fellow readers of The Athletic as a special category of buyers. Thats why Ive written this special article series about ADP Hacks for you this month (plus, because my editor assigned this series to me).

(Pretend its a long elevator ride.) This lets you know if you have to reach for a player you like higher than you expected or if you can wait a little later.

We already did this ADP hack with quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers.

The tight ends position is interesting because the top ones are bunched at the top, which all draft sites seem to agree with in Average Draft Position. But cohesiveness starts to unravel in the middle rounds on who is deserving of a TE1 spot on your roster.
