I really like that 1st one. I have no problem going early with QB/TE at all. The 2nd one is good too. Any reason why you love Sammy Watkins so much?

JaguarCrazy2832 Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Started an auction draft but couldn't finish it. I spent $141 of my $200 on Melvin Gordon, Michael Thomas and Davante Adams. I feel like those 3 for under $150 is really good value. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the first three picks in Elliot, McCaffrey, Adams. Marquise Goodwin Is a high ceiling sleeper. Did you fall asleep on taking a tight end? I don’t trust your running back depth, I just can’t trust Belichick when it comes to RB’s aside from James White in PPR format and well you are basically betting against yourself with both Burkhead and Michel. Five strong receivers for sure but not having a second QB when Wentz isn’t sure to even play week 1 is concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Fitzgerald as a person and player but in standard scoring he’s not who I would want as my #1, infact I would say all your receivers are between low ceiling #2 and deep sleeper. So many book or bust guys it will be hard setting a lineup. You have receivers that at year end may have respectable numbers but right now project to be wildly inconsistent due to either their offensive scheme or the quarterback throwing the ball. You may get 9 targets one week then 3 targets the next two. Team 2, see comments on receivers for team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, I don’t like Howard in the PPR format as much but at pick 35 when a starting running back is sitting there, you take him!!! Really you filled up the bench nicely.

TheGreatZepp Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 12 team PPR. 3 year old redraft league, all seasoned owners. I did a few mocks and kept finding that the best RB’s available by my pick in round 3 were McKinnon, Mixon, McCoy, Henry, etc while the WR’s were Hilton, Baldwin, Amari Cooper, Tyreek Hill... really felt a lot better on the depth at WR so I went for the top RB’s on my board. Both Greg Olsen and Andrew Luck were during runs where they were the last ones left in their respective tiers, I watched Kelce and Ertz go the two picks before my 5th round pick. This is the first year i’ve Ever drafted backups at either TE or QB but again, they were right at a point where I felt the position was almost to a steep drop off and given that both were injured last year, wanted the insurance. Last year I came out of the draft with 8 running backs (Hunt, Ingram, Kamara, James White, Powell, Doug Martin, Jonathan Stewart, Jacquizz Rodgers). I hope Barber or Freeman can bring me some of the Kamara/Hunt luck I had last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five strong receivers for sure but not having a second QB when Wentz isn’t sure to even play week 1 is concerning. This league has three bench spots allowed and that's it. I can tell you from experience that it's utterly worthless draft multiple QB's. And for all the talk about not trusting Belicheck RB's, I'd refer you to weeks 9-16 last season when both Dion Lewis and Burkhead (when Burkhead was healthy) were legitimate RB2 starters. I didn't fall asleep on taking a TE, I traditionally always wait on the position and usually stream one of either TE or QB (and have done so to some pretty strong success in this league, precisely because this league has small benches and doesn't allow for ferreting away players to keep them from other people). As to Seals-Jones, I could have rolled the diced on someone like Eifert or hoped that Eric Ebron suddenly learned how to catch (been there before). I opted for the high-upside guy (go back and look at how much Bradford targets the TE, and if/when he goes down rookie QB's, particularly the less mobile ones which Rosen is, target the TE a ton in year one) who has a clear path to start Week 1 (Gresham is injured). if Wentz doesn't suit up Week 1, I drop the TE (because the odds of someone picking him up at low and there are multiple teams with barely even two startable RB's in the in this league with two/three TE's rosters or two QB's rostered) for a QB (I have no issue rolling out someone like Tyrod Taylor as a spot-starter because he'll get points for rushing yards too to pad his total), or even Alex Smith if it comes to it (because he's another that heavily targets his TE, which Arizona has struggled to cover, and Jordan Reed will be healthy for at least Week 1 if he doesn't get injured in the preseason dress-rehearsal).

All of those are incredible values imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 I personally think this is the best case scenario(other than maybe taking Devonta round 2). I may have reached slightly on Goodwin but it was either pick 62 or 83 and I don't think he'll last that long. Overall the first 8 picks were guys I feel confident in 12 teams: Standard Scoring QB: Rivers & Ryan RB: Fournette, D. Freeman, R. Freeman, Kerryon WR: Demaryius, Hogan, Goodwin, Fuller TE: Doyle I left before finishing but honestly there was no one left worth noting anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those are incredible values imo Someone has to fall, I think I played the draft well, I watched default rankings and worked those odds a bit. If I was on the fence about a few people Royce Freeman for one, knowing his default ranking was so low (80’s) let me go for need (a second receiver) and run the risk that he would make it another 17, I knew though that he was on top of the boards of the 2 picks behind me and he would t be there for the turn back at 64. It has been the same 12 owners for the previous two seasons, I have a good feeling for their tendencies. I was lucky that two of the biggest sleeper hunters were after me at picks 10 and 11 which is why I went Royce Freeman, Marquise Goodwin, George Kittle, Peyton Barber with my before the turn picks.

Love them. Nitpicking end of roster but in a 10 team league I think there are players you could have found with better upside and boom potential than Stills and Peyton Barber. I'm getting pretty out on Emmanuel Sanders this year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
