Omg, I thought he was on autodraft before me

Bastard!!! I wanted to roll out Julio, Alshon, Baldwin, and Crabtree. Ok, fine. Elite TE it is. Jimmy Graham.

I'm happy to be rolling out Crabtree as a WR3. I've loved this guy since he beat Texas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjI1Cub_ofo

The last draft had me feeling like I can get great wide receiver depth and running back depth in the later rounds and I'm really high on Luck this year. That and everyone is drafting exceptionally well this time around. I felt much stronger about the value I was getting in the first draft compared to this one.

So in the same vein as my fourth pick, I kinda didn't feel anything for what was available and just grabbed Hunter Henry. I'm very high on him and feel I can have a solid TE option and just shore up RB and WR the rest of the way, since this is a mock draft and I don't normally go with two TEs and only do two QBs 50% of the time.

Oh so that is trashy. My phone was giving me alerts for every draft pick up until the Crabtree pick. Never knew I was on the clock. Would have chosen someone different and Cook was not on my radar. Whelp!

I took Edelman. He is still listed as the #1 WR on the New England Patriots. Am I missing something? I toyed with a couple other WR1s still on the list but I decided this was just too much value for the mid fifth round.

Ben Nevis posted:I like the pick. Cooks having a higher ADP than Edelman is a bit of an oddity to me. I think the ADPs are heavily skewed right now by dynasty draft data. A bunch of guys who got traded, plus a bunch of rookies, have higher ADPs than they probably should/will once all the redraft leagues start doing their 2017 drafts.

Cooks is gonna take a team's best DB off of Edelman, so I would at least assume it's safe to say he'll hit his usual numbers with zero problem if not better.

Edelman had a good year in terms of yardage last year, but only three TDs. For the purposes of this draft, I'm presuming that's a statistical aberration and he'll trend back towards the 7 he had in 2015, but I'm not sure and I assume that's why he's down in the 4th to 5th round despite being WR1 on a world championship team. Mid-fifth I'm OK with a WR getting ~100 receptions for 1100 yards and 4-5 TDs, though. Like, that's a drat good deal?

Larry Fitzgerald is going to be 34 and is certainly on the wrong side of things, but even in his age he makes a fantastic WR3. Hard to argue with his floor, although it looks like my team is looking exceptionally safe. The honest answer is that I just don't see any players that really excite me. Mark Ingram is great in a PPR format, and personally I think arguments for Adrian Peterson are overblown.

Also the reason I didn't take him over Luck. Really regretting the Cook pick.

I can hold my pick if that autodraft was incorrect: it looks like we're on a 12-hour clock?

If someone wants to change a pick I can do it, but I would prefer to avoid going back too much.

Honestly, Cook is ahead of Latavius on the depth chart last I read.

OK quick question. There's no negative points in the scoring in this league for interceptions. Is that an oversight? Or should I draft on the presumption that INTs don't hurt QBs?

Sataere posted:Isn't this just a mock anyway? Yes, but I take these things seriously! should I lower my rating for QBs who throw lots of picks vs. those that don't? Normally I would, and I think e.g. beersheets must assume picks cost something because that's how fantasy draft ratings are usually done, but weirdly we're not in this league so maybe I shouldn't. OK whatever I'll assume a pick is at least -1 point and maybe -2, and take: Derek Carr! Winston is above him in ADP, but Winston throws tons of picks and Carr doesn't. That's my deciding factor. If Russel Wilson had still been on the board I'd have had a tough time picking between them but probably gone with Wilson. I feel this round is when all the QBs in this tier are going to go, so I'm OK with taking a QB in the sixth.

Derek Carr is my jam. If I hadn't grabbed Luck, I probably take him with my fifth pick.

Huge Davis Carr fan. I would have taken him in the fifth/sixth turn no question.

He was unimpressive last year for sure, But looks like he'll get the volume unless he implodes. Could someone please explain the Coleman love in the fifth round? Even Larry Johnson circa '05, the most valued backup rb I can ever recall, lasted til 6-7

Remember when Gio and Hill were a thing like, two years ago? That's a decent parallel.

He went high for my tastes, but I can see the appeal. Drunk Nerds posted:Could someone please explain the Coleman love in the fifth round?

He is used a fair amount in the passing game and if something happens to Freeman, he looks to inherit a top tier workload. He is a high floor / high ceiling guy.

I agree with all of that, but don't see why he'd rate higher than the RB1s still on the board.

Gore is old. But he's gonna outscore all of your dumb Round 5 & 6 RBs Frank Gore goes to Team 89

Yeah, I reviewed and his stats were worse than I recall. He did well at the end of the season when he was lead back and I feel like his opportunity is better than most. I might bump him down a bit. I feel like Gore is just like super old and is bound to crash hard. Gilly, well, he has a shot at Blount-like numbers from last year. Uncertain floor, but that ceiling...

I wanted Gillisle. But, it was basically Gore vs. Gilly. And, despite his age, I feel like I know what Gore will give me. Gillisle is gonna do great I feel, but let's not forget about James White, Dion Lewis, and Burkhead either. Their backfield is a little ridiculous and is gonna be frustrating for fantasy. Burkhead is gonna be the bastard TD vulture that Michael Bush was to Matt Forte in Chicago.

CJ is a tricky one. I was close to picking him the last two picks. When the dude is healthy, he's great. But it's been...3 seasons? Dude is always injured or has something nagging him and bringing him down. I would have grabbed him if he went another round.

Only 12 RB1s, and they are all gone. If you mean lead backs, being a lead/feature back is a poor metric. I care about opportunities and I think Coleman will see more looks than a lot of the guys still left. EDIT: But Gore is a solid option. I just have a gut feeling about him that last year was the end.
