Pick One Keeper - 12 Team League - FULL PPR

[TREFF]

The only guy you listed worth a first rounder is Hopkins. And since theres no guarantee you would be the only one with no keeper, I think you gotta keep him. Theres always 1-3 teams who have no one worth a #1, and I can almost promise you, the other 11 owners, when they do the same research you did into the rosters, they all said you'll be keeping Hopkins

Yeah I see worst case 2 other teams don't use a keeper. If it's more than that I would very very surprised looking over the teams.


So WORST CASE SCENARIO - Two guys don't select a keeper....and I pick 3rd.

^^^In this case the BPA would be:

Henry
Jacobs
Ekeler
A Jones
Sanders
CEH
Chubb/Adams
Hill
Mixon
Hopkins

So Hopkins the 3rd best option on this list though?

I would definitely keep Henry over Hopkins and I am a Hopkins lover.

this is a 12 team keeper... in a redraft, where would you have Hopkins?? if he is not top 10.. then don't keep anyone... if there is a team with two first round candidates to keep, then one has to come back into the pool...

I would put Ekeler and A Jones ahead of him but still....I think the option is no keeper

I feel like this is a NO LOSE situation... you either keep Hopkins, and you have an elite WR to start with, or you throw him back and have some options... but either way, you will have a first round caliber player... because you have to...

He's absolutey not the 3rd best option.

He might actually be the worst option, but I think he's at best a bottom 3-4 option and absolutely not worth a first round pick in a 12 team league.

 

[Lamarvelous]

Guys. Hopkins is not a 1st round pick this year.

 

[SteelersPride]

Guys. Hopkins is not a 1st round pick this year.

Ok.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

didn't pay attention to the "don't have to keep a player" part.

So if you're confident that D Henry is getting tossed back into the pile, even if you think one of the 2 guys that draft before you might take him, I say don't keep anyone

Just the chance to get a RB with that kind of projected volume makes the risk worth it, imo

at worst, you can land either Tyreek Hill or just re-draft Hopkins.

I say no keeper

I don't think he is either...the point is, if I do pick 3rd is he worthy of a keeper. I definitely don't think he is...but I don't think Ekeler is either if I can possibly get Henry, Jacobs or maybe even Chubb

Not a huge Hopkins fan, but i am not buying the argument that the Cardinals trade hurts his value.

Hopkins had his 2nd best season when Hoyer/Mallet/Yates/Weeden targeted him in 2015. Not exactly tier 1 QB.
Hopkins was just as elite with the rotation of Schaub, Keenum, Fitzpatrick, Osweiler and Savage staring him down.
His numbers were no different once Hopkins took over.

To loosely quote Forrest Gump, "elite is as elite does."

 

[TREFF]

Of the dudes you THINK might be available in the draft, theres only Chubb, who I would take over Hopkins. So if #1 pick isn't guaranteed, think you gotta just keep Hop

 

[averagejoe]

And just to be clear, i do not think Hopkins is the 3rd overall first round pick. But neither is Henry.

But if they are the 2 best available, that is what you need to weigh.

is there any penalty in not keeping a player?? if I were you I would re-read your keeper rules again... even if you think you know them for sure... just make sure that you don't get screwed over...

So if this is the list and there are 3 total people (including me) in that 1st round who don't select a keeper...how would you rank the players below?

Henry
Jacobs
Ekeler
A Jones
Sanders
CEH
Hill
Mixon

*The owner for Chubb or Adams, not sure who he is taking so exclude this for ranking sake*

No penalty. I just get to select in the 1st round...

So if I am the only person who doesn't select a keeper I get to choose whoever is available.

Then the 2nd round starts on random draft order.

I think I am making this more difficult then I intended lol

Remember in this scenario 9 teams have players already so basically this is overall player #10 in a true ranking system...

 

[Shanemansj13]

All the players highlighted would be available in this scenario.

Worst case I get the 3rd pick and I get to choose from highlighted players in that unofficial 1st round. Then the 2nd round starts the real draft order.

I'd rather have Adams or Hill over Hopkins, so if there's a chance you can get Henry at #3, and at WORST, you get to choose from that trio of WRs (Adams/Hill/Hopkins), I think no keeper is still the right call here.

I mean, seems like you'll end up choosing between Hill and Hopkins if the 1st 2 guys make the chalk picks, and go Henry/Adams
