With the 2016 NFL Draft in the rearview mirror and most NFL free agents with their new squads, here are the FOX Fantasy department's way-too-early 2016 fantasy football draft strategy rankings.
You can debate the order of my top three wideouts, but Antonio Brown is my man, forever and always. Dez Bryant should be ready for a strong comeback season, assuming that Tony Romo is as well.
Surprised to see Keenan Allen in my top 10? He was on pace for a 134-1,450-8 season before injuring his kidney against the Ravens in Week 8. He'll probably go in Round 2 of your draft.
