Has anyone had their Dynasty Drafts yet?

It's nice, Buffalo Wild Wings is a great place to host a draft. -

Yeah, I used to have a league kind of like that. No fancy lake home, but we met at the league owner's home and spent a whole day Saturday drafting for two leagues. We all got to know each other quite well and it was my favorite day of the entire year. They would get a keg, fire up the grill, we would sit back, drink, eat, talk sh!t and draft! We had a good run from 2003 to 2019 but unfortunately it ended up a casualty of the pandemic. -

Only if everyone is wearing sexy lingerie -

We do our in person. We meet one Sunday at Buffalo Wild Wings and have the draft like one or two weeks before the season starts. It's good to have a more clear picture of which rookies are in good spots and which aren't. -

Early drafts, my dynasty draft isn't until late August. I haven't even started to prepare. I don't have a high pick though, so It's not like I've got a lot to prepare for. I'll just take whatever RB falls to me. I would imagine Harrison will be the top pick in most dynasty drafts. WRs will dominate. QBs too. Not much to speak of at RB -
I'll be honest, I'm not crazy about either of these guy's situation. They both have two RBs they're competing with on the depth charts. In Arizona, Benson will likely get touches, maybe even the bulk of the carries, but I don't see him easily unseating Conner at the goal line. Michael Carter is a receiving RB, so he may take away some targets in the passing game. In Carolina, we know they're likely gonna be one of the worst offenses in the NFL, limiting any RB's upside quite a bit. That to go along with two RBs to compete with for Brooks, too much competition for limited upside. Both of these have RBBC written all over them in the worst way. Maybe one or even both of these guys comes out as the 2nd coming of Adrian Peterson and just sets the NFL on fire. Outside of that, I don't see a whole lot of value here, not this season. Rookie RBs are gonna be a real crap shoot this year
-
The Panthers have Miles Sanders too. There's not really a rookie RB that stands out at this point. I'm sure somebody will emerge but who know who it will be?
-
I'm not certain either is gonna be the day one starter. They both have other decent RBs on the team. There will likely be at least a couple of rookie RBs break out, but it's about a toss up who they will be
-
Benson because he's on a team that should have at least an okay offense. The Panthers will probably be terrible again. Just a guess though.
-
I've pretty much geared my team to where RB is about the only position where I'm in need. So I will probably go after RBs early on. I won't have a high pick, so I won't be able to draft one of the elite rookie WRs. Which ever RBs fall to me, I'll take.
-
Yeah, it's a toss up in a lot ways after the top 2. For my dynasty team though, I'm loaded at WR. So anybody other than perhaps Harrison or Nabers isn't likely to ever scratch the starting line up more than once or twice a season at most. For our scoring system, and that role, I want the most bang for the buck. In this case, a guy who can catch one pass and give me a good score.
-
For my league? Dynasty league, PPR, Longball Harrison is first obviously 1st Nabers 2nd I got to say Worthy is 3rd that speed with Mahomes at QB, he's got massive upside
-
It will be interesting to see. I think he will be pretty good this season but probably not his peak level. Lamar Jackson is sure to take away some numbers.
-
The top RB on the depth chart is Rico Dowdle who has 89 carries for 361 yds in 3 seasons. They're supposedly trying to sign Zeke again, but he's washed up. It reminds me of a few seasons ago when they did this with the WRs and about 6 games in it was so bad they traded for Amari Cooper. They did a great job patching up the OL and finding some prospects on D but they still need to find a decent RB somehow.
