Kbum1003 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Trying to get some intel on how people in front of me are drafting, and this appears to be how the draft is going to go. I have the 5th pick in a 10 team PPR league. So this is a hypothetical situation, but let’s say the draft goes this way. 1st pick: Barkley 2nd pick: mccaffrey 3rd pick: Kamara 4th pick: devante adams and I have the 5th pick. Who are y’all picking in this scenario? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XFlash Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I have the pick 1.05 in my draft this Saturday. It is hard to believe that Zeke will not play. He does not have the leverage (2yrs left) to hold out like Bell or Gordon. I would either go Zeke or Hopkins. If you have any doubts about missing time from Zeke (game or games), the Hopkins. Bell is an interesting, but 1st round should be as close to guarantee as you can get. Currently it is Hopkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the 6th pick coming up and I'm looking at Zeke, Hopkins, or Bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeGat Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) David Johnson or Bell. I’m staying clear of Zeke unless ur draft is right before opening day and he signs, but then he may go top 3 Edited August 22, 2019 by MikeGat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trueblu3 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I would go WR Hopkins or Adam's. and probably got zero RB until the 6th you could probably snagg Mike Evan's, Keenan Allen, stefon Diggs, amari cooper , Brandin cooks in the WR2 , Get you a DJ Moore, Calvin Ridley, mike William's , Allen Robison sammy Watkins, landry in the as a Wr3 , Then you got options Pettis, fuller, Kirk , curtis samuel, Anthony Miller, allison, coutee, probably end up with RB like Sony Michel, chris Carson, James white, Rashad penny, Tarik cohen, Lamar Miller, Ekeler, Matt brieda, ballage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t like that strategy. I know it can work, but I’m just not a fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because the 'close to guarantee' is so important, i understand if rather avoid zeke. I'd throw DJ into the mix here as well. even in a disastrous overall team last yr and coming off serious injury he was still a top 10 rb....should only get closer to his 100% and be even better this yr Edited August 22, 2019 by Big Shot Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeke vs. David Johnson is probably what I will decide between at that 5 spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it can work, but I’m just not a fan I'd be deciding between DJ and Hopkins probably then in rounds 2/3 id be looking at just drafting best available at my spot but probably targeting at least 1 RB, if not two, since there will still be way better WR2 value in the 4th round than RB2 value in the 4th. And yeah, zero RB is trash. Edited August 22, 2019 by AJN15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said that you would just draft WRs the first 6 rounds. So that is better than picking a top RB then balancing out your roster with WRs and RBs? I didn’t say I’m stacking up on RBs. I like to have a balanced team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trueblu3 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I'm saying if you pick up some one like zeeke dont feel like you have too reach and stack up on rbs to make up for incase he misses, that's the idea , the tier 2 wrs have a higher floor then the tier 2 rbs , the tier 4 and 5 Rbs have a higher upside the same tier WR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tier 2 RBs are getting 12-15 touches...tier 2 WRs will be lucky to get half of that. That's called a higher floor, in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRP_Picks Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Honestly, I still feel ok taking Zeke at this spot. I can't imagine Jones isn't going to cough up the dough given that the Cowboys view themselves as a playoff contender again this season. If you are seriously concerned about Zeke, you could either go Hopkins or Mixon. I am a big Mixon believer this season, especially in PPR formats where he will be receiving a bunch of check downs. Hopkins is a safer play given his floor due to a high amount of targets. Either way, you can not go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rbrown Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I'd go with WR in round 1 and RB in round 2. Hopkins/Adams & Chubb/Cook/Mixon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
