Deshaun Watson practiced in full on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday with “general arm soreness.”


Obviously a massage was received Wednesday evening

Need an opinion because I’m drafting 4 in a .5 PPR league.

I think CMC, CeeDee, Tyreke Hill go 1-2-3.

Not sure what I do at 4. If I go RB I don’t know if I’m Bijon or Breece Hall. If I go WR, I’m likely going Amon Ra St Brown and will deal with people mocking me because he’s gonna be 8 or 9 on that list.

What are your thoughts? I don’t draft again until 21 and 28. Who I take at 4 should be informed by a plan I have at 21 and 28

Ideally I want a RB and WR 4 and 21 and best player available at 28.

I’m all ears on some opinions you guys can share. Thanks so much!

Can't go wrong with the floor Amon-Ra brings but think I'd still be going with Jefferson or chase, as I perceive their ceilings to be higher

You'll get enough opinions here that you'll probably be no more decisive than when you started - but I'd go with Bijan. That offense should be terrific.

Since I have been going to physical therapy I have no problem with massages now

 

[fightinfunbags]

For me that's a choice of Chase-Bijan-Jefferson, with Jefferson being entirely dependent upon how you feel about Sam Darnold being competent to lead an efficient offense.

I’ve been a Chase owner the last two years and he’s been feast or famine too much…especially last year. I like St Brown cause I think he shows up each week.

I'm pretty sure I'd go with Chase, than hope and pray your league mates are foolish enough to let Henry get to you at your 2nd pick.
Amon Ra is perfectly fine, but I'd take both Chase and Jefferson over him still

That’s fair. Both guys have bigger upside than St Brown.

 

[fightinfunbags]

These are great guys. I will have to consider Jefferson and Chase. Darnold really does scare me though.

I think it may be a Bijon year

It'd really help Chase if Burrows can stay in the game..would be an insane possibility of what he could do if that were to happen- i think

Take this with a grain of salt.
As a Dak dynasty owner, he is hot and cold. Since 2023 was his hot year, i expect a cold year for 2024.

Plus, i am a believer of the "tough to repeat" category. What this means is i dont see Lamb repeating either.

Think the top 3 are CMC, Hill and Amon Rah. Thusly, you are not crazy taking Amon at 4.

 

[averagejoe]

I'm pretty sure I'd go with Chase,

If you trust Ocho Cinco, he is adamant that Chase will hold out and not play a snap until he gets a new contract.

and he might, but, #1, I don't think he's got any legs to stand on with 2 years to go, nor the will to actually not play. and #2, Cincy would get a deal done before they get to that point . A no to Higgins, a yes to Chase.

Dotson must really suck if he got beat out by those bums

You didn't waste any time for one of those bums in D2, did ya?

we'll they'll suck no matter what, so it comes down to will Maye mentally hold up to getting his ass kicked for 17 weeks, and not have his career cut short because he never recovered? If Mayo thinks that's worth the risk, more power to them i guess

That becomes the problem. Especially since their offensive line sucks and whoever the quarterback is will probably get pummeled back there. The last thing you want is to throw them out there too early and get the shit kicked out of them and lose all of their confidence. I think they call this David Carr syndrome.

This is my fear for Daniels as well. WAS OL was a turnstile last year, Howell decision making didn't help but they still were awful. Not sure that's going to be vastly different, NFC East opponents are bringing a nasty pass rush, so a lot of his success will have to come from his decision making, imo

 

[averagejoe]

They could decide to feed Rhamondre 20+ times a game.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Is the Patriot's OL worse then the Bronco's, Giants, Saints, Panthers or Cardinals? Basically it sucks playing behind a shitty OL regardless if your a rookie or not.

Daniels is older than Maye coming out and WAS does have receivers. Maye's tape had some similar Howell-esque decision making so Id quite a bit more worried about him.

Brissett is a career 6.6 YPA veteran at this point who shows flashes. Thats pretty firmly in the backup territory. If I was a headcoach I would probably just start Maye and run the ball like the Bears did with Fields.

I think thats a fair ranking of the Pats oline. Bad, but with upside to be decent.
