Rimmytose Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 10 team league, 6 pt all TD, no PPR, with yardage bonuses over 100+ yards rush/rec Start*: QB, 2 RB, 3 W/T, TE, K, DST * - Rule change proposed to swap 1 W/T slot for a flex RB/W/T slot I am drafting 9th and can only select ONE keeper from the following: David Johnson - 1st Round DeMarco Murray - 4th Round Melvin Gordon - 6th Round Michael Thomas - 16th Round Michael Thomas seems like a great value, but I'm still debating keeping DJ. Hard not to keep the consensus #1. If the rule change proposal is successful I might lean back towards a RB instead of a WR as my keeper selection. Is the value for Thomas to good to give up or would you go take one of the RBs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkecrew Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Yahoo sports reported that Thomas was rated the number 1 overall WR in PPR and Standard leagues last year. As the saints #1 he has been getting separation and making catches at will during camp. To keep Thomas in the 16th is huge. Yes DJ is a great value at #9 and no one would fault you for choosing to keep him. However, You can grab another #1 RB/WR with the 9th pick. I think the value of Thomas is to good to pass up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I personally would take the value pick in Thomas. He wasn't the #1 WR last year (he was #7 based on Huddle PPR scoring), but there is no reason to not expect him to perform at a similar level this year, if not a little better with the departure of Cooks. Johnson for the #9 overall also not a bad choice, but I just don't think you will make up the potential value you can going by essentially getting your WR1 for no cost to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robotpimp Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 DJ is so talented but first round talent is deep even at RB in my opinion. Having MT for the 16th is pretty incredible especially if you can continue to keep him??? Can you continue to keep him? Still MT seems pretty obvious you'll have a nice RB still in round 1 with a swing pick to do whatever you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
