Koeniky Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Assume Brown, Julio, AP, ODB are drafted, I am pretty well set on drafting Gurley at 5. His schedule sucks, but he's looks to be the best clear cut stud left. Standard scoring. 100 yard 5 point bonuses for rush or rec yards. And I'm not going to risk taking Zeek. Regardless of his ceiling. And also. Say something weird happens, and ODB or Julio falls to 5, but Gurley is still there. Do I pass on Julio? ODB?

RowdyRoos Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Why are you assuming AP will be taken ahead of Gurley? I've seen it the other way around in most mock drafts and rankings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koeniky Posted July 30, 2016 Author Share Posted July 30, 2016 I'm in the ESPN platform and I've done over 40 mocks and I've seen Gurley taken over AP maybe 1-2 times. Matt DingleBerry has AP ranked super high so everyone sees AP as better option 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeresJohnny Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 This is pretty much personal choice... There really isnt a wrong choice. I think if you're using a draft strategy like Zero RB, you're hoping one of the big 3 fall to you. If you're going RB Heavy, pick who you want. Gurley's facing the AFC East this season, as well as the NFC West. For me, that's a little risky with a Rookie QB, but you can be certain of his workload and talent. None of the top backs is really without question marks. Just pick the one with whom you are most comfortable. If you're doing VBD, or Best Available, you "tier" your athletes and identify which combo you'd be happier with... Julio and Ingram, or Gurley and Alshon, for example. Good luck!

castzpg Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I've also done a lot of mocks (ESPN) and I've seen AP go #1 overall multiple times. I couldn't belive it the first time. But yeah he seems to be going before Gurley most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
