    I can’t imagine he’d fall that far. He gains nothing by holding out so I’m sure he’ll play this year.

    David Johnson could maybe fall, but Zeke won’t. By that point I would be looking at a top WR.

    this is the one draft I actually would prefer to be in the top 4 picks smh

    I picked Zeke at 3 because I’m sure he won’t hold out longer than five weeks and because I read the bullshit tweets yesterday morning like an hour before the draft. But it’s okay, I’m not worried.

    Ahhh just wrapped up the draft. I’m pretty indifferent on my roster, I think I’m pretty deep in WR, but my RBs will be boom or bust.

    QB - Big Ben

    RB - Mixon, Derrick Henry, Duke Johnson, guice, ekeler, Ronald Jones, pollard

    WR - Adams, Diggs, Jeffrey, Green, desean

    TE - njoku

    D - rams

    My auction draft, much like my draft last night, def did not go as planned. I shoulda kept Julio for $58 lol
     
  11. QB: Baker Mayfield, Josh Allen

    RB: Kerryon Johnson, Sony Michel, Damian Williams, Kareem Hunt

    WR: DeAndre Hopkins, Odell Beckham, AJ Green, Marquez Valdez-Scantling, James Washington

    TE: Greg Olsen, TJ Hockenson

    K: Greg Zuerlein

    D: Bears

    10 team PPR

    Took two risks but I think I can survive until they’re both back. At that point I’ll be set.

    Thing is, if Gordon gets traded or AP gets hurt (or sucks) or Zeke holds out, you're set without Henry. You've got a bunch of upside at RB, and probably enough depth overall to cover for those 2-3 weeks where Ben throws for like 100yds and 3INTs.

    Also, if Green is back healthy by bye weeks, you're WRs are set.

    Alright here's the full results. PPR, 10 teams, keeper league, auction. Thoughts appreciated as I consider this my "Main league"
    .
    QB-Jameis Winston $1
    RB-James Connor $6 (keeper)
    RB-Aaron Jones $6 (keeper)
    WR-Tyreek Hill $48
    WR-Mike Evans $38
    WR-Jarvis Landry $12
    TE-Mark Andrews $2
    W/R/T-David Montgomery $26

    Bench-AJ Green $16
    Bench-Will Fuller V $13
    Bench-Phillip Rivers $1
    Bench-Rashaad Penny $6
    Bench-Darnell Henderson Jr. $4
    Bench-Marquez Valdez-Scantling $9
    Bench-Jordan Howard $3

    K-Fairbairn
    D/ST-Philly

    I should have kept Julio at $58, a lot of people had a lot of money to play with this year and he went for like $67. Also expected to get Chris Carson back after I decided to keep Aaron Jones over him, and he went for $40 (!). I ended up with a lot of guys I wasn't really targeting. I think more core of Connor, Jones, Monty, Hill, and Evans is a good core. I wanted pieces of the SF and SD backfields, got outbid. Ended up with 3 handcuffs/backfield splitters instead on my bench. TE was suuuuper shallow after all the keepers, but even so Kelce and Ertz both went to the draft pool and got outbid on them as well. I'm not in love with Jarvis as my #3, but hopefully he can do just enough to hold it down until either AJ comes back, or one of Fuller or MVS breakout.

    I dig it. Im expecting Fournette to have a big bounce back year this year. I can see him finishing as an RB1. Plus Ekeler should feast as long as Gordon's out. WRs you've got your safety net in Edelman, upside in Anderson and Golladay.

    Looks great, but having Julio would've been icing on the cake. Either way, solid core of RBs with Conner/Jones/Monty. Great WR core with Hill and Evans, and just like you said - if/when Green comes back healthy, you're set. Good luck this season!

    Wrapped up my main league's draft over the weekend. 10 team PPR/2 flex league (been the same 10 people for 6 years which is amazing). I picked 10th. Everyone loves getting their workhorse RBs early which allows elite WRs to drop.


    QB: Lamar Jackson
    RB: Leonard Fournette
    RB: Sony Michel
    WR: Davante Adams
    WR: Michael Thomas
    TE: OJ Howard
    FLEX: Stefon Diggs
    FLEX: Austin Ekeler

    B: AJ Green
    B: Donte Moncrief
    B: Miles Sanders
    B: Latavius Murray
    B: Kyler Murray
    B: Justice Hill

    Imagine “waiting” for RB and you still walk away with Fournette & Michel to pair with your 2 elite WR1’s and Diggs at your freakin flex spot? Team is sweet!

    haha yeah I'm amped about it. Was planning on going RB/RB at the 3-4 turn but decided to go with Fournette and Diggs to throw in the flex instead. Michel fell to me in the 5th.

    So amped this is week 1!

    Yeah RB got super deep it feels like as the draft season went on. A lot of it is guys in committees or new committees because of injury or hold outs, but it just felt like there were a lot more RBs still around in that rounds 6-8 area that will still be good

    Regular

    DJ - Julio - Fournette is possible in a draft... Depth of that roster isn't too strong but that's mostly because I'm fading Lindsay and Gordon in drafts. Ekeler should be solid while Gordon holds out.

    WRs aren't really any guys I like this year aside from Julio. Golladay will probably be streaky, but the Lions offense as a whole isn't a pot I'm reaching into much this season either. Watkins could return decent value. People seem to be underrating the WR2 on the Chiefs while Evans/Godwin/Howard go relatively close in ADP despite the lesser QB throwing to them.

    I agree with this, but would argue he can fix his WR depth with Lindsay or Eckler and really have a nice team.

    If you had the 10th-12th draft spot I could see a very, very lucky scenario of landing Julio/Johnson in the swing. But Fournette falling to the end of the 3rd, that is wild. The injury scare and horrible sophomore year is definitely not giving many people much high confidence, but there are always people like me taking that chance and rolling with him.

    I think your team is solid. Lindsey and Ekeler as depth pieces with Gordon eventually being there (while not relying on him in his absence) is great. If you're gonna grab a top 5 TE & QB you're gonna be weaker at RB or WR, but your WR depth isn't THAT bad.
