Yep, I think you're right on here. I have the top pick in my PPR keeper league, and I'm likely going to keep Gurley, so I'm thinking they should form a solid 1-2 punch. You could possibly make the case for Martin at 5th, but I wonder what he's gonna do now that he's paid.

Martin screwed me over a couple years ago, so I'd be gun shy in taking him that high again. But he did have a great year last year.

You better have him behind OBJ, or ill challenge you to an intense thumb wrestle

I probably would, I just think OBJ is the clear #3 WR heading into next year(behind Brown and Julio)

No way behind Julio for me

I think Brown/OBJ are 1 and 1a than Julio/DeAndre

The COWBOYS, in the last three seasons, have never really had problems on offense.
except ONE......Keeping Tony Romo healthy.....And I think EE will be great for the offense.
But the COWBOYS, have got a mess on defense. And Rod Marinelli can only do so much.
So is he a first round fantasy football pick:noidea:

Julio had 40 more receptions and 400 yards more than OBJ last year. That's pretty significant for a PPR league. I'd have Julio 2 and OBJ 3. Pretty minimal difference between the two though.

No way this season

Youd be passing on too many more reliable guys

Would you take him over a Davonte Freeman or Thomas Rawls?

And you have to think Mcfadden will still be in the mix after a solid season
Rawls in the first? Any opening in your league?

Yeah, i guess it depends on your format

My leagues have big bonus' for big plays, 50+, etc...And Julio doesnt make big plays, and OBJ is good for one a week, and the TD edge

But you cant go wrong

Cutting DMC will save Dallas $2million this year with only $200k in dead cap. Morris is suited well to be Dallas' backup, humble guy with a great attitude and doesn't have an injury history. Elliot does everything well, so it's not like Dallas needs a specialized role player for backup RB.
Humble guy with great attitude how does this make him well suited to be a Cowboy? He'll be an outcast on that team.

any mock you go pull up right now has Rawls on the edge of Round one

That would make a lot of people wrong

Did you consider Todd Gurley one last year? Did he turn out to be? If you answer yes, then the answer is a YES on Elliot.

BTW, my answer is yes.

Who has a better chance in a better position?

I don't know, but maybe we watch a game or two before we start handing out ROY trophies.

There are a couple of QB's who went 1st and 2nd that might have a say. A few WR's that went in the first round already too. It could even be some guy nobody has heard of before. Point is saying that you'd be shocked if he doesn't win before he's even been fitted for his helmet is extremely premature.

My favorite kind of fantasy football player is the one who looks at mocks for their picks. My second favorite are the ones that still think RBs with less than a catch per game should be drafted early and often...

Oh come on, we are back down to only 1 prima donna (Dez), and 3 drug addicts (McClain, Gregory, and Lawrence) . Hardy ain't coming back, either. The rest are pretty solid guys. Haha

We are making progress!!

Oh Jesus.......Yeah, I look at the mocks for my picks.......

#1 - Every draft you will do this August, will be no different the first round or 2 than every mock you pull up on any site

#2 - Todd Gurley had 21 catches last season, and wont be drafted outside Round One in any draft in America

With that all said, I will be and always will be taking a receiver in Round One, and most likely ROund 2 in every PPR draft I do

#1 not true at all
#2 that's not less than a catch per game

I'm just going off of what we know now.

Goff is in a spot where he has all the pressure to succeed, and he has no WRs.

Wentz isn't likely to start enough games to get the vote.

None of the WRs are the elite, top level guys in this draft, and none of them are even going to be the #1 on their team outside of Coleman.

Zeke is the most complete RB prospect since AP. He's going to an explosive offense with the best OL in the NFL. There's nothing not to like. It would take a huge, out of nowhere year from someone else to beat him out.

#1- Yes it is...As we approach draft day, the first round or 2 has the same names in any particular order, before things get more unpredictable

#2-Thomas Rawls started 6 games and had 9 catches, Todd Gurley started 13 games and had 21

Do the math
