In PPR leagues, each player in your starting lineup receives points per every reception. Each reception is worth 1 point in ESPN Standard leagues and can be customized in custom leagues. Note For League Manager Leagues: With PPR, points are awarded to the player (RB/WR/TE) catching the pass.

How many RB and WR should I draft? If you need to start at least two RBs and two WRs every week, then you should plan to draft at least 5-6 RBs and 5-6 WRs. Those numbers increase (or decrease) depending on how many you're required to start at each position and how many flex positions your lineup has.

Running backs, wide receivers, and quarterbacks are often the positions targeted early, as they tend to accumulate the most fantasy points.

In a Snake Draft, the pick order is reversed each round. Each team manager takes turns drafting unique players via a back-and-forth, round-by-round draft order (i.e., Round One 1-10, Round Two 10-1, Round Three 1-10, Round Four 10-1, etc.) until all roster slots are full.
