Pairing is overrated. I said it last year, and I'll say it again. You can do almost anything early in drafts and if those players stay healthy, you'll be okay. But in head-to-head formats, can we lean into particular build types to gain some ground? Sure, why not!? Yahoo's first rank board is out, after all, so we can dive in and make adjustments as they do!


Let's talk about the best one-two punches for starting things off.
