by Mock concepts are not just a warming up. They are a secret weapon. And if they are done well, they give you the representatives, reads and reactions you need to dominate your real depth. But not all mocks are made equal and most fantasy managers do it wrong.

Why spot completely?
Practicing Mock concepts is not just about seeing what a team looks like on paper. It’s all about:
-
Testing different strategies (zero RB, Hero RB, Early QB, etc.)
-
Insight into positional drop-offs and drawing levels
-
Become comfortable with the power and pacing of your pull slot
-
Value -trends spot before your Leamemates do
Every Mock is an experiment. And over time, those representatives translate into sharper instincts.
Before you start, you must ensure that you have set your test settings to meet the rules of your real competition: the format of scoring, selection positions and the design type. The last thing you want is practicing under the wrong competition conditions.
