In this episode, the Apex crew hosts the famous creator of the Zero RB strategy: RotoViz’s Shawn Siegele. Shawn explains exactly what Zero RB is (1:40), how recent young talent at the wide receiver position has affected the strategy (5:38), and how the 2020 rookie running backs fit in with a Zero RB approach (9:05).

Then, Shawn discusses what we’ve learned about Zero RB since his famous article introduced it in 2013 (13:27), evaluating college wide receivers (17:46), and where the drop-off at wide receivers is in 2020 fantasy drafts (23:00).

Finally, Shawn describes executing a Zero RB approach in leagues that start 2 vs. 3 wide receivers (25:24), weighing talent vs. opportunity with guys like A.J. Brown (32:00), and whether Shawn sees himself as a “strategy drafter” or a “gatherer of value” when drafting his fantasy teams (36:57). Mike and Shawn then end the show by discussing their experiences in the 2020 Apex Expert Writer’s League (46:04).
