So my options for keeper in my league are either Adam Thielen at pick 46 or Chris Godwin at pick 70 for a wide receiver and then either Derrius Guice at pick 142 or Sony Michel at pick 75 for a running back. And no I can't keep two running backs or two wide receivers, we can only keep one at each position. Which way would you guys go? It's half point PPR but I'm not sure that would really matter when choosing between these guys.

Adam Thielen (pick 46) or Chris Godwin (pick 70)
Derrius Guice (pick 142) or Sony Michel (pick 75)

Well Bandit no help here

that is just plain tough.....


can you sit on Guice and survive until (if and when he takes over) cause i keep him if you are willing to take that chance..as you still can make pick 75

i like Godwin value and this should be the year he breaks out yet can we trust Winston to get him the ball....

hmmmm Thielen is safer but i trust your draft skills

so ...

i say draft at 46 and 75 and keep Godwin and Guice....

but ill bet that isnt the most popular response....

Godwin and Michel for me.
Granted I'm biased as I didn't think Guice was all that and a bag of chips coming out of college, and he's certainly not done anything to disprove that so far. Plus he plays on an offense virtually guaranteed to stink up the entire NFL, regardless of which guy plays QB., so even if he does have greatness in him, doubtful he gets to show much, if any of it.
Godwin over Thielen simply because the 2 round value is good enough to outweigh whatever possible difference there MIGHT be in production.

this depends on how many teams in the league

if it is 10-12 i would keep Thielen

but if it is 14+ i would keep godwin


as for the running backs, i would probably keep Michel no matter what...

I like guise a lot... but not sure of his ceiling...he is likely at best a flex option in most leagues... even in deeper leagues... i think he is more of a sit and see type guy though...

I'd keep Godwin thinking I can get someone of equal value of Theilen when you draft.

As for RB, I'd keep Michel. I think there's risk that the Pats use more of a committee which would limit his numbers and he won't be as strong as he looked last year but looking at the other potential RBs you could draft in the pick range you'd be if you gave him up (the 70s), there's not a lot of good options. Ironically, Guice would be one but others are like Lamar Miller or committee types such as Brieda and the Philly backs. I could see Guice end up having the better year but I don't think its worth the risk of giving up the draft value in this case. Keep Michel

Michel and Godwin for me, simply because I think it'll be easier to draft theilen and guice again if you want them back

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

But then you don't pick in the 4th and 7th, right?

You are going to get a lot of different answers it looks like because I like Theilen and Guise. The Hoodie factor would make me steer clear of Michel.

Godwin for sure.

RBs are tougher.

Guice has talent and upside. I like Michel a lot better, but the value on guice at pick 142 makes him the better keeper value.

This, and I'm not biased.
