Reaches, Avoids and mid/late round Gems

I agree that Kyler Murray is getting drafted too high but I actually kinda like him as a bench QB. I think he has Josh Allen type of potential out of his rookie season except he'll get a whole heck of a lot more yards rushing.

The QB I'm leery on is Mitch Trubisky. A lot of people are talking him up based on sneaky good per game points last year but he really just feasted on the Bucs, Lions and Dolphins. The advanced metrics people aren't a fan of his and I think he is still pretty shaky.

I'm high on Cam Newton and Philip Rivers.

Rivers loses his #2 WR but gains Hunter Henry. Henry, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams is about as good as a trio can get for the red zone and without Melvin Gordon I could see the Chargers maybe passing a bit more like when Bell held out for the Steelers.

If Newton is healthy, he is my QB4 (or QB5 if Luck is also healthy). He has the track record and lots of weapons in that offense.

Your usual good stuff, Joe. I hope your articles continue.

However, I do have one quibble. You left out the all-important Kicker position!

I'm kind of on the other end of the Latavius argument. I think he'll get a touch more tjsn Ingram last year.

I couldn't agree more on the QB point. Brady in the 12th? Sign me up.

WR is a tricky fellow... My biggest problem in the mid rounds, is making a choice OTC, in the moment, despite my rankings, from one of a dozen names that will have about a dozen yards difference at the end of the year. (Sept schedule is sometimes the tiebreaker for me there).

Great read, Joe.

Same - saints have been run oriented last couple yrs, I think it continues.

Good article. Good year to play fantasy football if you're good at it.

One thing jumped out at me. Amari Cooper sucked and cratered all of my teams.
