... when dude hit me up and told me I was on the clock. Luckily, it is a slow draft and I picked 2nd, so it was a pretty easy choice. Anyway, I am close to being otc again, so I figured I would reach out.

12 teams... QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, 2 flex (R/T/W), 1 DEF, 5 bench.

6pt passing TDs, -2 INTs, 40+ yard completion/rush/reception is worth 1, half PPR, -1 fumble, -2 fumble lost... other than that, pretty standard.

It is a keeper league, but I forget the parameters. I think we keep 4 and it has to do with the round we drafted them in, but I can't remember and can't find where it is written at the moment. I will check into it when I get home tonight.


Draft so far...

1.1 - CMAC
ME - Barkley
1.3 - Zeke
1.4 - Mahomes
1.5 - M. Thomas
1.6 - Kamara
1.7 - Henry
1.8 - Cook
1.9 - CEH
1.10 - Chubb
1.11 - Miles Sanders
1.12 - Josh Jacobs

2.1 - Lamar
2.2 - Mixon
2.3 - Julio
2.4 - D. Adams
2.5 - Aaron Jones
2.6 - DHop
2.7 - Drake
2.8 - Kelce
2.9 - OTC
2.10 - On deck and will absolutely take Tyreek Hill if he is there
ME
2.12

3.1
ME



Thinking about going Golladay, then coming back with whichever Tampa WR the guy on the turn doesn't take (assuming they both get by the dude otc and my buddy (the guy on deck who will take Hill, if he is there). I don't think the guy on the turn will take both of the Tampa WRs. Worst case scenario, dude otc takes Hill, my buddy takes Godwin (most likely), then I have to pick between Evans and Golladay, because chances are, the other one won't make it back to me. Then, I am looking at maybe Kittle in the 3rd (and I hate to take TEs early). Not loving any of the RBs here. Am I missing someone or on the right track?

As always, thanks in advance.

You misread it. I work the guy who picks 3rd and he spent the whole day talking about how he's going to take Hill if the guy otc passes on him. I pick after him, so I can't get Hill. My plan was to go Golladay at 2.11, assuming both Tampa WRs are there and then bank on the dude at 2.12 and 3.1 not taking both of them and grab whichever one is left.

I'm not sure if i am feeling Ekeler and I do like Kittle, but i think i would much rather get a stud RB (although I don't know if there is one available here) or WR (which there sre guys i like).

Kittle for me..then, I'd take Jacobs..or one of those TB WR's.

Not a buyer on Ekeler, everything in LA is gonna change without Rivers

I dunno that I buy him being all that more involved in the passing game, though it wouldn't be hard to see a big increase (doubling it would still only be around 45 catches). But with all the new toys, plus Richard still around, gonna be tough to get a big uptick. BUT..as far as RB's still available here, unless you are mega high on a rookie not named CEH, hes easily the best one, IMHO.

you trying to win this year, right?
give me Fournette with this pick over Ekeler.

then you have your choice of TB WRs or Golladay - or maybe even Ekeler, not opposed to 3 straight RBs then loading up on WR2 types with nice upside potential (DJM, Chark, ARob, Woods, KAllen, Lockett, etc)

I also don't value the premium TEs nearly as much in keeper/redraft as I do dynasty.

Especially considering where you pick. If you were end of 3rd, I'd say smash Kittle, but since you are beginning, I think RB-RB-WR or 3 straight RB is the way to go.

Yeah... Jacobs is gone, or else I would be all over him.

So, Tyreek went and then my buddy took Godwin. Probably my worst case scenario, but I'm leaning Golladay.

Not sure I buy Fournette here. I like the talent and I certainly see the potential, but Jacksonville seems hell bent on full on rebuild and I could see him getting dealt or getting frustrated or something that would limit his production Getting dealt could help his production, and I could see your point if we were talking about the future, but I just don't see it this year.

Think Golladay is the best choice here. The RBs left just aren’t that good.

So, I went Golladay and the turn went Ekeler and Kittle. I took Mike Evans. I'm not upset.
