Week 1 Battle Royale Rankings & Strategy (Fantasy Football 2024)

Christine Tannous/IndyStar / USA TODAY NETWORK
Underdog Fantasy’s flagship contest Best Ball Mania V has now filled. In its place, Underdog will continue offering draft-based play formats for weekly battle royale contests with significant prize pools.
In this format, players will draft six-player teams in six-person draft rooms. These teams will compete against all drafted teams in contests with relatively top-heavy payout structures. Underdog’s Battle Royale contest for Sunday’s main slate will feature 67,992 entrants with a prize pool of $300,000 with a $30,000 top prize. Included below are my rankings for this contest and key considerations for draft strategy.
