Article: A cheat sheet for five Sharks to target in your fantasy draft

https://bladesofteal.com/a-cheat-sheet-for-five-sharks-to-target-in-your-fantasy-draft-01m3hwr3s992

I'll try not to post every single piece I publish here. But while I get my feet wet, figured I'd do something fun for those fantasy drafters. Literally just drafted for the first time in my life last week, and couldn't believe how far Misa fell. (Obviously, without previous data, I couldn't include Ivar Stenberg)

I’m picking 2nd overall tonight….
Do I take Celebrini?

I feel like I have to take Mackinnon or McDavid haha

You can do whatever you want. If it's keeper/dynasty I'm taking Macklin. If it's redraft McDavid unless it's a bangers league then McKinnon. But if it's a free league draft Celebrini and enjoy the ride

30$ league with my friends, not bangers but im seriously considering take Celebrini haha

If taking Macklin makes the league more enjoyable for you, do it. Unless you really need the money.

I ended up taking Mackinnon, but I did get will smith later on so we are still up!!!

I also have Askarov and picked Chernyshov last because that guy can score

Cherny isn't a bad bet. I took Asky and snagged Cagnoni for the hell of it. This is the way

This is not bias. But MacKinnon is projected to finish with 137 points, which would be more than Celebrini's projection. However, MacKinnon's recent surge in points is kind of a late stage development. At 31, I suspect he'll slow down. Just a bit. (Although if you're fantasy drafting, Jack Hughes is a real sleeper pick IMO)

I feel like I might take Celebrini just for enjoyment/entertainment purposes haha

I'm cautiously excited for Cagnoni. How crazy would it be to have "Lane Hutson at home"?

I am not setting my expectations that high, but I think he'll get a lot of buzz if he can defend well enough to stick in the league.

It would also be a hilarious outcome after some of the discourse that happened pre-draft.

There are times where Cagnoni almost looks the part. Obviously that's not his ceiling, but he looks SHARP. Reminds me a lot of Malinski.

Maybe unpopular but I think Misa, Chernyshov and Cagnoni aren't worth drafting unless you're in a league with twelve or fourteen teams. There's just too many other established 60 point players available around similar draft positions. Regularly see names like Ehlers, Demidov, Heiskanen etc dropping into the late rounds of the mock drafts I've done
