What is your approach/advice to the Week 2 slate?
Zak: Heavy stack of Roughnecks
Brian: Identify and plug in big play/high-upside WRs
Mark: Heavy stack of Roughnecks
Alex: This is the week to pivot. Lock yourself in to a strong QB/WR or QB/WR/WR or QB/WR/RB stack and then find players with high snap counts who have yet to make an impact to fill the remaining spots. Ownership will be very concentrated this week.
Scott: Pay up at WR and then find value plays at WR, TE and pass-catching RBs in negative game scripts.
Taylor: Don’t focus on the players necessarily, focus on your line-up construction as players are very overpriced in Week 3 compared to the first two weeks.
Make sure to follow everyone involved for some of the best content across the XFL! We will see you again next week for the Week 4 survey.
