    Every Fantasy player loves finding value based on Average Draft Position (ADP), but sometimes it's ok to reach to get the impact play you need before the competition swoops in. Before going on the clock, be sure to see the list of players you should reach for in 2019 from SportsLine Fantasy football analyst Matt Franciscovich.

    Franciscovich, spent four seasons at NFL Network as on-camera talent and as a writer/editor, appearing on NFL Fantasy Live, Fantasy & Friends, and NFL Pick'Em. You might remember him best as one of the 'Fantasy Hipsters,' a segment that was nominated for FSWA "Best Video" award in 2016. He's also a featured contributor of the Fantasy Football Black Book, which has spent ample time at No. 1 in Fantasy books on Amazon in 2018 and 2019. Now, Matt is a Content Strategist at EA Sports, focusing on Madden NFL, while continuing to dish out Fantasy takes for SportsLine. He has years of experience handing out league-winning advice, so if there's anybody who knows when it's ok to reach, it's him.

    One thing we can tell you: Franciscovich says Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who's current ADP is No. 109.3 overall, is worth reaching for in the top 100 picks. 

    "With a year of experience under his belt, Jackson brings an even higher ceiling to the fantasy gridiron this season," Franciscovich said. "He's (hopefully) become a better passer in the offseason, and the Ravens new offensive coordinator, Greg Roman, is a run-first coach and we saw Baltimore lean more into the run in the second half of 2018 as the team climbed back into playoff contention. That's great news for Jackson's Fantasy upside, making him well worth reaching a couple rounds for."

    Franciscovich has also identified a running back going off in the 14th round, according to the latest 2019 Fantasy football ADP, who should be picked well before that because of his huge upside. You don't want to wait too long and miss out on this potentially league-winning pick, so you ABSOLUTELY want to see what he has to say before you draft.
