Im 1.05 in my rookie draft: Saquon Barkley Derrius Guice Rashaad Penny Sony Michel All taken. Nick Chubb, Ronald Jones, or DJ Moore? Or some other? I'm leaning Jones since he'll pretty much be the starter unless he sucks. Also debating trading back (don't have a 2nd round pick currently) e: .5 ppr for wr, .75 for rb, 1 pt for te. Can post my roster too if requested. MacheteZombie fucked around with this message at 00:09 on May 8, 2018 |

While I feel Chubb has the higher ceiling, consider that you may want someone starting NOW. That's Jones

Are there any tight ends worth taking in this rookie draft (or guys that may be in line for an expanded role elsewhere)? My dynasty team only has Greg Olsen and while he's been a trooper, that's probably not a sustainable option past this year

My favorite right now is probably Gesicki, he's a combo of a high pick with opportunity. Hurst is another (but I secretly believe in the Baltimore TE Curse). Opportunity-wise, it's worth mentioning Schultz for the Cowboys maybe. I'm curious about Akins for the Texans. The Eagles traded up for Goedert, but Ertz seems locked up for awhile there. Conklin is the  basketball player.

Gesicki is a SPARQ monster, so probably has the highest upside. I probably wouldn't look at any of them before the third round of a rookie draft. Possibly fourth, depending on how it played out.

It's a 16 team league so 3rd is getting pretty late, but Gesicki is already taken so hardly seems worth chasing the other guys at 2.7. I'll keep an eye on them and see who falls, thanks for the suggestions! Snagged Penny with the 1.07, so hopefully that works out. Be nice to have him and Alvin anchoring my RBs for a few years so I can get my IDP back in order

TE was probably his biggest need, so maybe it'll pan out, but his team is usually a poor performer during the season, so he could have gotten more value elsewhere.  e: would giving up crabtree and perine for the 2.02 be too much?

Rookie WRs and TEs take awhile to turn around, so personally I'd focus on QBs and RBs and try to trade for a TE or WR after they falter their first year. Just look at players like Nelson Agholar or Davante Adams.

Where are you picking next? I think it's important to remember that rookies have a pretty high bust rate. It's better to have a lot of early picks and just hedge. Although it's hard to argue against his situation. I personally think Perine is poop, so to me, it's a question of Crabtree for a second rounder. I'm not sure if I could do it, but I could see why it seems like an attractive option.

Sataere posted:Are you eyeing Darnold there? IDP kinda fucks up the values, since I don't know how big an impact defensive scoring has. Our IDP scoring is on the higher end, but still not on par with offense in any respect, we just start a bunch of them. For reference, top performers: QB: Wilson w/354 RB: Gurley w/385 WR: Brown w/314 TE: Kelce w/234 DE: Cameron Jordan w/184 LB: Mosley w/234 CB: Slay w/188 S: Reshad Jones w/214 Starters: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1RB/WR, 1 WR/TE (don't ask me), 3 DT/DE, 3 LB, 2 CB, 2 S, 1 defensive flex, and the obligatory kicker Picks also came in for your enjoyment: 22. Dante Pettis 23. Dallas Goedert e: I suppose for your full micromanagement, I've got (partial list, nobody wants to see all 46 on this drat roster): QB: Luck/Bridgewater/Taylor/Chad Kelly on my TS RB: Kamara/Penny/Bernard/Lewis WR: Michael Thomas/Tyreek Hill/Cooper Kupp/Kelvin Benjamin TE: Olsen DE: Nobody worth mentioning but damned if I'm drafting one high LB: Telvin Smith CB/S: Pretty much whoever I find on waivers So on some levels Darnold has appeal, I've got a ton of QB but since everyone in the league seems to hate Tyrod who knows how that'll play out and I don't expect Bridgewater to do anything. Someone like James Washington also looks nice. And there's a dark part of me considering Derwin James, I doubt he falls to my 3rd round Azhais fucked around with this message at 20:44 on May 8, 2018 |

I'll say two things. 1) I tend to hedge with rookie drafts, because it is so volatile. 2) When I really like someone, if I think I can get then, I try to get them if the price is right. I'd say follow those parameters and you'll be happy. Number two has gotten me Alvin Kamara and Christine Michael. Azhais posted:Our IDP scoring is on the higher end, but still not on par with offense in any respect, we just start a bunch of them. I had the Derwin James thought too, but agree I'd probably wait until the third. You can find someone on waivers with that position. drat, I hope for both our dynasty teams sakes, Luck comes back!

Terrible fantasy league idea: Multiple drafts, all by position. Before these drafts, you have a draft of draft positions. Prior year order finish (or random draw) determines the draft order for the draft of draft positions. So the draft order draft might go like.... 1st pick takes the 1st pick of the RB draft 2nd pick takes the 1st pick of the QB draft 3rd pick takes the 2nd pick of the RB draft etc Then you have the position drafts (not sure what order these would go in, since there is strategy there): 4 round draft of QBs (maybe just 2 round) 6 round draft of RBs 6 round draft of WRs 2 round draft of TEs 2 round draft of DEFs 2 round draft of Ks After all this garbage is done, everybody creates their roster from the 22 players they've drafted (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 FLEX, 1 K, 1 DEF, 5 BEN) and drops everybody else. Maybe I just like drafting too much.

The worst feeling is spotting a new "trend" that all the analysts seem to have missed, and feeling super smug about ranking certain guys a lot higher or lower then convention... and then Matthew Berry starts spouting the same idea. Makes my heart plummet from "feeling super clever," to "feeling like a basic bitch."

Anyone familiar with the Colts have any idea what Marlon Mack's upside is for the upcoming season? He's like my only other keeper option at a 10th round cost. Might have to just go with 1/2 keepers if he's not worth it.

Upside is mid-high RB2, as I see it. Downside is if Mack just sucks/isn't fully recovered from shoulder surgery. Colts also drafted a couple of late backs, including a guy named Wilkins who has some buzz for a fifth rounder. Downside is Mack is worthless after week 2

Thanks, yeah i remembered them drafting RB's and getting rid of Gore but nothing else besides that. I'm have the 3rd overall pick atm and already keeping Dalvin Cook as a 3rd rounder. If better news regarding Mack starts dripping out as the year goes on i think i may just keep Cook as a 3rd, Mack as a 10th, and draft a top tier RB at 3rd overall and focus on WR's.

"Oh the top four RB picks and the first WR pick are off the board, what position should I go for" is basically the same as saying "DJ, Bell, Gurley, Kamara, and Antonio are off the board, who should I pick next?"
