My BIL loved the pick. I thought it was a bad pick. RB is a luxury pick and they have way too many holes to fill to make a luxury pick IMO
I thought using a first on a RB when they have Robinson was foolish, although I was sure they were going add to there RB corp at some point in the draft as last year they played Russian roulette by not having anyone other then Robinson to run the ball at all. The pick of Etienne was brutal for FF purposes as now it looks like full blown committee. Personally I like Robinson as the better back and I was hoping for Etienne to land at a better spot so I could land Williams with the 1.03. I'm not really a fan of Etienne TBH.

I was thinking I shouldn't be sharing my thoughts, but decided that it didn't matter because everyone makes their own minds up any how. How do you feel about Etienne now? I was going Harris with the 1.01 barring a terrible landing spot and had you and Will inked in with Etienne with the 1.02 but now I'm not so sure about your pick which feels strange because I was so sure pre NFL draft.

I would say, yes some people do... but the point being, the make-up of the team suggested a different approach, and doesn’t seem optimal in real or fantasy.

Teams like their 1-2 punches these days.

It would be funny if Urban shut us all up and traded JR tonight... Etienne breaks 2000.

that is very possible IMO... and also probably smart... sell someone at their highest value... If jacksonville can get a third rounder... damn!!! that would be great value...

Well first off, one cannot be an UDFA AND be drafted by the previous regime, so I'm already questioning the intelligence level of "Dynasty commander"
Secondly, that UDFA was among the league leaders in most all rushing categories, and chased Fournette out of town,, so it's not as if we're talking about a dude who barely made the team and only played on special teams.

Yes, it's not an ideal spot for Etienne

Agreed. Then they drafted a guy round 1. And i argued for james robinson.

Well I agree that it was not ideal, but it was still better than Tampa Bay or Buffalo which is where he was mocked in several places.

I'm undecided what I'm going to do with the 1.04. I literally can't make up my mind and that's very unusual for me. I look at my roster and think I need a XXXX but I want to go a different direction that doesn't make as much sense. It's driving me crazy.

Trading that 1.05 really made this so much harder for me.

Problem is we both need so much that it's really not gonna matter.
