The secret to winning your point-per-reception fantasy football league is not drafting any running backs with premium draft picks. Rotoviz writer and National Fantasy Football Championship winner Shawn Siegele coined his “Zero Running Back Strategy” in 2013 to claim first and second place and prize money in excess of $200,000. While most 12-team fantasy football leagues will draft about 15 running backs in the first and second rounds, only about eight each year reach the modest thresholds of at least 1,400 rushing plus receiving yards and eight touchdowns.
