cousinal111 57 Posted May 31, 2018 - Full PPR - Assuming Le'Veon & Gurley go 1 & 2, who would you like to slide to you at #4 and why? Zeke - Suspension crap over, healthy, great O-line but doesn't catch much. DJ - Questions about QB/O-line but health doesn't worry me since it was a wrist. Kamara - Regression or progression? Without Ingram (1-4), can he handle workload? Brown - Ben a year older and the drop off at RB quality after top 5 concern me. Wild Card - Anyone else sneak above these 6? I'll answer back. Thanks.

weepaws 2,459 Posted May 31, 2018 Zeke without question. If I have the first pick ppr, and I’m in a 14 team ppr. I would go Bell and then Zeke is my number two. So if he was too fall to the fourth spot oh yeah I’m taking him. Thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,459 Posted May 31, 2018 My top three Rbs, Bell, Zeke, Gurley. After those three, my next two would be DJ and or Hunt. I just have a feeling that Zona will have a very tough season, and that could make for a inconsistent season for DJ. But I still have him right now in a tie for fourth. Its not a popular ranking of DJ, but its mind. Thanks. Always a pleasure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpenceToons 70 Posted June 3, 2018 First of all, I must disclose my bias. I've been in a keeper league for four years. I've had Bell for every one of those years and in just about all my matchups against my arch rival, who's had Brown for each of those four years, his Antonio always seems to get the best of my Le'Veon. So I have a case of mad Antonio Brown envy. Since he has produced at a gold-standard level for several years running, I'd go to the bank with that and select Brown over anyone but Bell and Gurley. Brady, Brees, and others have shown us that QB age is an issue that can be overcome. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted June 4, 2018 What about the drop off between the top tier Rbs vs the drop off for WRs. I think easily greater in the rb postion. If I can get a true Rb1 over the top Wr I doing it. Thanks. Psalm 27:7. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a 10 team snake draft, if I go AB at 4 than I'll probably have McCaffery or McCoy type as my RB1. Whereas if I grab Zeke or DJ at 4 , than the likes of AJ Green, Michael Thomas, or Keenan Allen would be there at 17. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottsind 61 Posted June 6, 2018 It would be real hard for me to pass on Zeke or DJ, but look at these scenarios. I am in a standard league, but looking up a couple PPR boards this is what I came up with depending on if you go RB or WR route with your first pick. Big Board 1 Pick 1 - AB Pick 2 - McCaffery or Freeman Pick 3 - Evans or Hilton Pick 4 - McKinnon or Pick 1 - Zeke or DJ Pick 2 - AJ Green Pick 3 - McKinnon Pick 4- Jeffery or Cooper Big Board 2 Pick 1- AB Pick 2 - Fournette Pick 3 - McCaffery or McKinnon Pick 4 - Cooper or Robinson or JuJu or Pick 1 - DJ or Zeke Pick 2 - Adams or Evans Pick 3 - McCaffery or McKinnon or Freeman Pick 4 - Drake or Landry I am talking big boards right now as a lot will change Im sure in 3 months. I would take Zeke over DJ as I think the Cowboys have a better team and the threat of Dak running keeps defenses honest. I have DJ as a keeper also so hopefully my thoughts are incorrect, but I try to stay unbiased. Out of all of those scenarios I like the teams with Zeke or DJ the best. Also a common denominator is I would sell out for McKinnon. I think he is going to be perfect for this format. Hopefully this helps the thinking process from my perspective. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cousinal111 57 Posted July 22, 2018 I'm 20 days from Draft Day & talk around my league is Le'Veon may slide in our draft. Unfortunately with an early draft, I probably won't know too much more about Le'Veon's situation then than I do now. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnD. 22 Posted July 30, 2018 If Bell slides to #4 then you say a little prayer because someone up there loves you and then you say Bell as fast as you can. If he's gone then you take either of Gurley/Zeke/DJ and be happy about it. Can't go Brown at #4 with those guys on the board. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=478570 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gpann101 32 Posted August 4, 2018 This is my preferences at Rb #1 Zeke- with all reason noted and he CAN very well catch. Monster season coming #2 Gurley- he would be my #1 but want to see an encore season first #3 Barkley- rookie and trumping a few consensus ranked rbs...anytime a back is compared to Barry Sanders...I'm drinking the Kool aid! #4 Mixon - like the kid alot ( read below) #5a Johnson/#5b Bell- way to many red flags for both. Mixon is in better situation to out perform these two Next..Fournette,Kamara,Hunt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
