A lot of the fantasy soccer mock drafts our ESPN Fantasy group conducts are for leagues with 10 or 12 groups, however there are numerous who play in shallower setups. Our newest mock — an 8-team league with PPR scoring — was designed to serve that viewers.
As a result of fewer beginning slots than in bigger leagues, there are notable variations in draft strategy. Arguably the obvious comes at quarterback, the place solely 5 had been chosen within the first 10 rounds, as groups loaded up on vast receivers and operating backs.
This draft featured the next members (so as of first-round choice): Liz Loza, Matt Bowen, Keith Lipscomb, Daniel Dopp, Tristan H. Cockcroft, Eric Karabell, Subject Yates and Eric Moody.
