10 team, standard scoring. I have pick 7. If Kelce falls to me, what RBs would I take ahead of him? Obviously changes my team structure a good deal if I go Kelce round 1, but it's drat tempting if he's there. Think Chubb/Jones is about the line below which Kelce would make sense.

But it puts you in a hole in terms of your RB strength cause the studs will all be gone by your second round pick You understood me correctly. I'm trying to gauge whether it's worth taking him in round 1. Based on my mock drafts it seems like the answer is probably "no", although he did drag my corpse of a team to the playoffs last year (my picks were Saquon, Mixon, Kelce - 1/3 ain't bad?). My instinct in 10 team is always to go RB/RB, probably one of Chubb/Zeke/Jones based on availability followed by someone in the Mixon/Gibson/Najee Harris tier. Several mocks have had Davante Adams/Tyreek Hill fall to 2.4 though and that's basically impossible to pass up even if my RB2 ends up being, say, JK Dobbins. VietCampo posted:In standard scoring, Kelce should not be taken in the 1st. Yeah, I think you're right that Kelce isn't worth the 1st rounder. As always, I'll just keep loving around with mocks till I get to a strategy that makes the best looking teams. Thanks to you both.

Keith Atherton posted:Yeah the mocks I smash are usually the ones where I go RB RB cause there’s so much more WR depth. I’m planning on just picking a D in the final round that has a good week 1 matchup and then streaming If I miss out on top 3 I'm drafting Higbee in the 10th. No thank you to mid round TEs when I could get Lockett or Claypool instead.

Think I heard somewhere that the greatest Rookie TE season of all time would basically be TE5 last year or something like that? I'm probably wrong on the specifics but that was the gist. Maybe Pitts works out? But for that draft capital I'm way way more likely to get value elsewhere.

Spermy Smurf posted:Can I get your feelings on Sanders? Sanders I'm having trouble rating, tbh (not that I'm an expert by any means, just a degenerate who likes this too much). Interested in other peoples' thoughts on him. On one hand, you have a worse offense than the Ravens, with more potential for negative game script, and the same problem of a mobile QB. On the other hand, Sanders has been a top RB before, and who is his competition in the backfield, Kerryon Johnson? Boston Scott? Not exactly threatening. Feels like a higher risk/reward proposition than some other RBs in that range.

Feeling vaguely meh about my first draft but I think I got some good value. Couple of guys I was hoping for got sniped but that's why we draft in tiers. From spot 01.07 in a 10 team standard redraft. QB: Tom Brady RB: Aaron Jones RB: Najee Harris WR: Terry McLaurin WR: Keenan Allen TE: Tyler Higbee Flex: DJ Moore D/ST: 49ers K: Brandon McManus BE: Raheem Mostert BE: Chase Claypool BE: Devonta Smith BE: Deebo Samuel BE: Marquez Callaway BE: Trey Lance I think I need better RB depth, Mostert is a home run pick but is injured too often. A league mate drafted too many Ravens and is considering moving Gus Edwards. Maybe I could entice him with Mostert and a receiver if I get some good week 1s. I know I shouldn't be carrying two qbs, will probably ditch Lance in roster churn.

Double post but an actual question. I'm back in a PPR league for the first time in a while, and since I'm 9th there's a chance that a 0RB strategy will be the best choice. I've never actually done that in a money league. I know the basics - 2 top WRs, wait for RBs until the end of the dead zone (so rounds 5-7). But am I taking straight WRs until then? I'm never inclined to take a top QB, but I never like middling TEs either (usually prefer to wait if I miss out on top 3). All WRs feels like a logjam but I suppose 4 high level players gives me good depth and a distinct advantage at one position group. So maybe 4 wrs and then Kyler/Josh Allen, or Andrews/Hockenson? E. Should clarify that this is a 12 team league. I had Adams/Diggs fall to me in a mock last night which got me thinking about this. Obviously my strategy will depend on what happens on draft day. shirts and skins fucked around with this message at 13:36 on Sep 4, 2021 |

Agreed. Dionte in the 9th is a great value. Kyler might end up qb1 but you can find good qbs later.

If that was full PPR it'd be close. Standard it'd be laughable. At 0.5 it's just kinda weird imo. Ekeler will get a ton of volume, Herbert is established and likes to use him, he's immune to game script issues (unlike Chubb who doesn't catch passes) and there is no other RB of significance on the roster. Lots of smart people like Ekeler. Me, I'm dumb as hell, like incredibly stupid, but give me Chubb.

I feel like you can choose to go early TE or early QB, but you can't do both. You're left with too little depth at the WR/RB positions. Still considering whether I'd take Kelce if he falls to me at 9/12 in my full PPR league and I think my answer is probably "no". Having Kelce was an incredible advantage in Standard last year but with my top RB out I felt like I was scrambling all season.

Fate Accomplice posted:if he's the ~only option on offense, a massive downgrade at QB, and he'll see stacked boxes the entire season, then I'm not sure what volume will get you besides hurt unless his talent is McCaffrey level. and he's already hurt. I think people are hoping for a James Robinson season. Dogshit team where he gets all the volume and does just fine as an RB2. The team drafted an O lineman with its top pick and is probably going to want to run the ball, especially with those kinds of receivers. Of course, the "gets all the volume" is the problem, because A. he's hurt and B. he has Jamal Williams sitting behind him waiting to leech targets. I'm staying away from the Lions unless Hockenson falls for whatever reason. Pain of Mind posted:There is really no wrong position to pick at pick 9 in PPR (outside of QB), a top WR like Hill or Adams is reasonable, Kelce is reasonable, and whatever RB is reasonable. With your top RB out the points are lost no matter what, I am not sure if there is much functional difference between playing a decent RB3 with a middle tier TE or playing a top tier TE with a worse RB3, it just moves around who gets the points. I have had years where my sleeper TE does not pan out and I end up getting a cumulative 2 points over 6 weeks and it is not ideal. Yeah that's fair. As with everything, it all comes down to who falls to me. Thanks for the response.

Second money draft down, full PPR, 12 team league, 4 player bench. Feeling all right about it, but those 12 team drafts feel so sparse.

Keith Atherton posted:Hey a fellow Gay, Meyers, Hines, and Mooney owner! Yeah I usually try not to draft players I'm rooting for, but Carson and Lockett made a lot of sense where I drafted them. Probably should have taken someone else in Lockett's tier to diversify. Maybe I'll snag a trade if he goes off. The real pick I'm not sure about is Pitts. It's higher than I was hoping to get a TE and I don't trust rookie TEs at all, but the value vs ADP was good and I didn't trust my ability to get a good sleeper TE in a 12 teamer. May try to move him early if I can get someone to bite on the hype.

I didn't like the mid round TEs, don't know what I was doing.

Hope Pitts breaks out soon, but only so I can trade him asap.

Tbh I'd trade away either if you can afford it, who knows what Shanahan will do in that backfield and the Mitchell hype is very high right now. Jeff Wilson will be back eventually, and presumably Sermon will be active this weekend. SF won't play Detroit every week, too.
