RELIEVERS: Speculating late in NFBC Draft Champions leagues

This column focuses on a handful of relievers you might consider for the late stages of a NFBC Draft Champions league (a 15-team, 50-player draft and hold format). But you also may want to consider them in other leagues, depending on your league context. And even if you are not ready for these relievers in your end game, you should keep them on a list where you are quick to pounce if something clicks.

First, here are those relievers:
