Keeper advice

I get to keep 2 players in a PPR league. These are my top choices:

 

Le'veon Bell (2nd round)

Russell Wilson (5th round)

Larry Fitzgerald (7th round)

Philip Rivers (14th round...he did come in #6 last year)

Doug Baldwin (3rd round...they lost Jimmy Graham, which is the only reason he's in the conversation

 

 

I think Bell is a given. I'm leaning towards WIlson, but Fitz in PPR puts up high numbers and really made me win last season. Any thoughts?

I'd keep Bell and Baldwin

any reason you like Baldwin this much, he was my last of the bunch because I have to give up a 3rd rounder for him and he finished like ranked 60 last year

Unless its Superflex there is little to no reason to keep a QB.  Bell is a given.  I'd probably let all the rest go.  Would favor Baldwin out of him and Fitz, but you're getting him at ADP if this is a 10/12 team league.

Wilson finished #1 last year though and no reason he'd decline this year. You don't think that's a steal in the 5th, i'm sure he'll be drafted round 3 or 4 this year. 

 

Do you really see that big a gap between Baldwin and Fitz, I mean it's 3rd round vs 7th and Fitz outplayed him by a lot last year.

Bell is the easy one. None of the others screams value, and like DEF. said, unless it is a Superflex or 2QB league (or very unique scoring), neither of the QBs screams value or would generally be worth consideration. Rivers is the 13th QB off the board, so other than locking you into him as part of your QB committee, nothing really gained by protecting him.

 

Baldwin in the 3rd is about his ADP, but the uncertainty about his knee is cause for concern

Fitz in the 7th is slight value over ADP, but really it's a meh pick and no real reason to protect him as he's really JAG for a WR2/3 spot.

 

Do you have to keep 2? Other htan Bell, none of them are no brainer good options.

I don't have to keep 2, but Fitz was the 5th highest scoring WR last year in our league and he's being drafted in the 4th right now. He was the clear #1 WR (at least in terms of possessions) last year, any reason you think that would change?

While hes been good over his career you have to worry about: Age, New Coach/Scheme, Younger WR Competition, Poor Line/QB play

Age, new QB, new coaching staff, a healthy David Johnson

 

No reason not to protect him as a 7th, but it doesn't scream value and I think he has limited upside. He's a relatively safe pick to have as a WR2/3 type this year as he should still see plenty of targets, and if you had to keep 2 I'd probably say he is the second one to protect along with Bell, but like I said earlier, it's kind of a meh pick that I doubt will significantly move the needle so to speak.

I like him because he is the best weapon for Wilson.  Graham isn't there any longer and I think he's going to be used often this season and put up some nice stats.

 

He isn't a great value at 3, but Fitz has a new coach and QB so predicting his stats is a bit tougher.
