This is a final list of 20 fantasy football-relevant observations heading into Week 1 of the National Football League season. Use this information as a supplement to the other previously posted sections of our Fantasy Football Draft Guide: The Rookies, the DO NOT DRAFT List, the Target List and the Draft Day Plan.

Hopefully you’ve been following along as we’ve posted our NFL Fantasy Footall Draft Guide in three parts: The Rookies, DO NOT DRAFT List and the Target List. In this article we pull it all together in presenting our Draft Day Plan, which will outline the strategy we will use when it’s go time. 

NFL Fantasy Football drafts can get very stressful when we're on the clock, the time is ticking down and we are torn between two or more players. That’s why creating a Target List is essential Having a list of players we want to target on hand can help take the stress out of the draft process in real time and help us avoid pushing the panic button when on the clock, freezing under pressure or even clicking on the wrong player in the heat of the moment.

For fantasy football managers, their NFL DO NOT DRAFT List – also frequently known as the Fade List – often gets very personal.

In full transparency, we tend to avoid the hype when it comes to National Football League rookies and their potential fantasy football impact as their careers get started.

It’s perfectly fine to go into every fantasy football draft with a plan. In fact, we encourage that. We all have our preferences.
