Be bold in 2022 and beyond! Especially in your dynasty and keeper fantasy football leagues. Whether you're a best player available drafter or you think you've got a keen eye for high-ceiling, long-term talent, the best rookie drafts are the ones where you don't play by the rules. Not every pick has to be safe, so go get your guy!
