Brutal Brutus 182 Posted August 15, 2019 I don't have one that that truly don't like. I may prefer the middle at 5 or 6. I like DJ in round 1, and you're in prime position to take players that are falling throughout the draft. When I draft at the ends, I typically find my self debating between a couple players, picking one, only to watch the other player fall to the next round and almost make it back to me. At that point I see someone getting an incredible value. Then again, drafting at the ends forces you pick your players, while drafting the middle, I find myself drafting a bit more on who I think should make it back to me, only to have a few players drafted before I thought they would be and wishing I had taken them instead.

Guess I am not a fan of the DJ, Hopkins, Zeke spot mostly because of who is going mid-2nd right now. I like the early 2nd "pre-Kelce" picks and see Kelce as the start of a dropoff.

I like the early 2nd "pre-Kelce" picks and see Kelce as the start of a dropoff. I started a different thread about this called RB 2 by committee, but I like that spot this year as I see a lot of value in low end WR 1's dropping. Rd 2. I can still land a Schuster type, Rd. 3 K. Allen and Rd.4 Cooks. I take L. Murray as my rb 2 and follow that up with Ekler or Cohen and high upside RBs. I see this strategy as limiting my bust potential in the early rounds and maximizing the amount of darts I can throw at the RB position in the middle rounds.

Phil Simms 11 127 Posted August 15, 2019 JuJu wouldn't get past me at top 2nd, but I am loving him this year. I view him as last top tier (i.e. potential Round 1 pick) pick before Kelce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuschWack 56 Posted August 15, 2019 I'm 6th in a 16 team league and love the spot. I can nab a debatable top end RB or WR and then get to pick in 2nd before the first 5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tanatastic 2,061 Posted August 16, 2019 I’m 6th! DJ, Gurley, Hopkins and Adams are on my short list. 1 I dont like. The Chubb, Mixon, Conner group at 12 followed by a top shelf wr sounds better to me. The window for landing a stud RB and a stud WR closes right around 6-7. At 6 I’m looking at hopefully still getting someone like Juju in rnd 2. Pick 1 gets what? It’s a boneyard after 20 picks or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AintNoStoppinMeNow 68 Posted August 16, 2019 I think top 3 is ideal. You get one of the workhorse backs guaranteed and can come back around at the 2/3 turn and still get two quality starters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
