MissionCoach 4 Posted July 17, 2019 I have the #1 draft slot this year, and have been getting a lot of offers to trade. As of now it looke like Barkley, Zeke, McCaffrey, and Kamara, are the top 4 picks. I'm looking past the 1st round, and wondering if picking in the middle of the draft might not offer more value. Thoughts on the best draft spots this year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted July 17, 2019 If you want a top receiver, near the end where you can still get Mixon or Chubb. Or the latest you can get Djohns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissionCoach 4 Posted July 17, 2019 I typically draft 2-3 RB's in the 1st 3 rounds. Seems like I might still be able to get productive WR's, breakout WR"s, in rounds 4 + 5, if drafting at the end or midde of those rounds, not from the 1st draft position.

I normally like drafting a little later in the round, but in this draft, top 2 is really a big deal. I personally would stick with it, maybe taking McCaffery and then seeing if I could get Montgomery or Mixon or similar and then taking a WR in the early third unless another decent back is available. I'm all for 3 RBs in the first 3 rounds if the draft falls in a good way for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baker Boy 1,479 Posted July 17, 2019 Keep it and pick Barkley, no one can predict how a draft will shake out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted July 17, 2019 I would trade out of the 1 spot for a good bump somewhere else. Maybe their second for your 8th or something along those lines. I did a startup and ended up trading my 4th into the first. I traded that second first rounder for 2.14 and 3.01. It turned into David Johnson and Trubisky (I'm high on grubs) in a ppr superflex where each rush nets .2 points. So basically gave Hopkins for them. It allowed me to also grab a top 4 tight end with a .75 ppr bonus without having to worry about my second qb or tight end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted July 17, 2019 Pick 12 is really great this season imo. Pick 1 good luck in rnd 2 getting an impact WR like you can get at pick 13. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bier Meister 1,512 Posted July 17, 2019 Haven't mocked yet, but if you can maintain a top 4 pick and add some value early in your draft I think a trade is worthwhile. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted July 18, 2019 I like top 3, 7, or back 3 Yep 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted July 18, 2019 I like top 4, 5-8, or last 4 this year. Any other spot is garbage 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thoughts on the best draft spots this year? In a non ppr I would keep the pick. In a ppr I would trade back and go late, I don’t know how many teams are in this league, but in a ppr I would love being the person with the first pick in the second round. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike FF Today 607 Posted July 18, 2019 Having a top 4 pick puts you in a good position to get one the top tier RBs while leaving you with plenty of good options at WR to choose from in Round 2. Depending which RB you want (Zeke, Barkley, McCaffrey, Kamara) you can consider moving down to No.4. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted July 18, 2019 If I get the top pick this year, I'm going to try trading it in my big money redraft. A trade has never happened with draft picks, so it would be nice to capitalize in a year where there is a clear cut desire for the top rated player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a large drop-off (in my opinion) after these four players. This also puts you in a posistion to grab one of the top 3 TE's as well. if you choose to go that route instead of grabbing a WR.

ICEMAN I don't see a large drop off at all. David Johnson could easily have a huge year. Mixon and Chubb should be on competent enough offenses to push their numbers. Plus Gordon is in the conversation 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,452 Posted July 19, 2019 Best draft slot is the one I’m drafting from, always a winner. Hey good luck this upcoming ff season to all, thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bard 11 Posted July 21, 2019 Ha, always a winner. Every year I bet. No chance. FF is so volatile. But good input, I actually agree in a way. You should be able to win from any spot, any year. My best advice is do not worry about the first 3 rounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purplengold47 27 Posted July 31, 2019 Really like pick 8-9 and 10 this year. On a 10 teamer, u can get chubb-conner or any of the wr in odb, julio, adams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
