SexyRexy 60 Posted August 23, 2019 Wanted to post this to get other's thoughts. I'm drafting from the 9 hole in a full point PPR (3 WR league). I am swaying back and forth daily on which way to go. Between RB/WR and WR/WR. I know just go BPA, but in the first 2 rounds I like to generally have a sense of how I want to lay the foundation, and this year I am having an unusually difficult time figuring it out. On one hand I can get the last of the top en tier of RB's I like and pair with a WR, but I'm also seeing that I typically find two extremely elite WRs at both picks. Torn between take an RB and slot in my RB1, then grab my WR1 vs take the two best players which I often feel are WRs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knight11e 10 Posted August 23, 2019 10 or 12 team league? I drafted last night from the 9 hole and grabbed Julio, then Conner in the 2nd. Mocking from the 8/9/10 spots I found my team was questionable at RB if I didn't grab one in the first 2 rounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone24 1,814 Posted August 23, 2019 I'm in the 10 spot in a 12 man and I really feel like either need to go all in on running backs or all in on wide receivers. I really don't like the guys at running back at the 10 spot or on the turn. So I got about 2 or 3 running backs that I would take at 10 if they fall otherwise imbgoing to take the best receiver. In the 2nd round I've got 2 receivers that I really want and if they are not there then that means Kelce will be and I will take him. So that will pretty much set me down the road for a 0 running back which I've really wanted to try anyway. I'd say identify a couple running backs that you would accept at 9. If they are not there then don't get trapped into feeling like you have to take a running back at 9. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gardenstatepkwy 5 Posted August 23, 2019 I'm at 9 in a 10 team PPR. I agree with the poster above that I went into my first few mocks grabbing two high end WR but found my team to be lacking at RB. Lately I've been going RB/WR (usually Connor/Bell then Thomas/Adams/Hill). After that I try to make the next few round about value and grabbing the best available. At least half of my mocks had me taking Ertz with either my 29/32 pick but I don't think he'll fall that far in my real draft so my strategy will be to be to wait for Henry/Howard at TE and load up at RB/WR with those picks. Guys like Freeman, Ingram, Theilen, Kupp, Edelman, Carson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Simms 11 127 Posted August 23, 2019 I’ve got the same situation. I find myself getting one RB and one WR. Depends on who is there at 9 which determines if I’m taking the WR or RB first. I don’t go for Kelce but could see it in round 2. At 3rd and 4th you can get some good RB2 or WR2, or one of the big 3 TE. If Mahomes falls you consider him there as well, his ADP is beginning 3rd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nzoner 936 Posted August 23, 2019 Drafted from the 9 spot(12 man league,standard,2 keepers)) two weeks ago,ended up with Adams and Chubb.Wanted to go WR/WR but didn't work out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted August 23, 2019 TD heavy scoring, probably staring at a decision between Connor, Chubb, and Adams. If I roll WR, Mixon is probably the top RB at 16 which is...meh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SexyRexy 60 Posted August 25, 2019 For anyone interested I got lev at 9 and came back with Chubb in the second it rounded out as cam/kyler bell/Chubb/henry edelman/Moore/kirk engram will spare you the bench Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No faith it happens in my league. ETA: Went Chubb 1st, Adams fell to 2nd after a RB run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
