I'd be surprised but not necessarily shocked. I was higher on him at this time last year (and drafted him in a couple leagues). However, I was expecting he would be good enough his soph year (even with Barkley handling a big load) to force his way into getting more than 3 touches per game. I may...

This one finished up recently. Rounds 4 and 5 are the annual two-round devy draft (bunch of guys already owned from previous years): http://www65.myfantasyleague.com/2018/options?L=40761&O=17 4.01…* Brown, AJ FA WR 4.02…* Montgomery, David FA RB 4.03…* Taylor, Jonathan FA RB 4.04…*...

2018 Devy Top 100 is up: http://subscribers.footballguys.com/apps/article.php?article=2018-devy-top-100-college-prospects Hit me up with any questions and always looking for constructive feedback.  It felt harder than normal to rank the 2nd-tier 2019 guys, especially at wide receiver, this year. 

Fair point, I do think the loss of Witten might hurt because who knows what the young backups will be able to do.  Though I also think you can argue that (1) Dez hasn't been good the last two years, so Hurns probably isn't a downgrade except in name value and (2) Dak's ability as a runner and...

I agree that Barkley has more PPR upside than Elliott because he can actually split out and run routes like a wide receiver. Over the last two seasons, 4 different running backs (including 2 rookies) had a season with 80+ catches (Le'Veon Bell, David Johnson, Alvin Kamara and Christian...

I'm still around but at some point lost the password for the login under my real name and thus went back to posting on my old account from my days prior to joining the staff.  I am doing the Devy Top 100 article again this year and targeting Monday, May 8th to have it up on the site. 

These general conversations are always tough because each league has it's own twist. I play almost exclusively in PPR leagues, so I see a pretty big gap between him and Chubb/Guice, because I'm not bullish on those guys as pass catchers and I think Barkley catches 60 a year. If we're talking...

I think people are going to want something on top of DJ to move the 1.01. There's more than a 5-year age difference. 

1. 1st day is lighter than expected on WR and RB.  2. Big OL run in the last dozen picks of the first round with way more Centers and Guards than usual sneaking into the 1st.  3. The top 4 QBs are off the board in the top 6 after trades (along with Chubb and Saquon).  4. Minkah Fitzpatrick...

Not involved but saw this one in a 14-team PPR.  1.01 for 1.02 and 2019 1st (probably top 5, though I didn't deep dive into rosters)

A lot of these names have already been mentioned. Some late-round startup picks or trade throw-in guys I like:  Austin Ekeler, Corey Clement, Corey Grant, James White, Tyler Lockett, Albert Wilson, Chad Williams, Ryan Switzer, Chester Rogers, Nick Vannett, Stephen Anderson, Ricky Seals-Jones. 

I'm with @menobrown on this. Wouldn't trade a future 1st for 2.05 before it was on the clock. Would absolutely consider making that kind of trade if I had a loaded team (late 1st the next year) and loved one of the players still on the board.  Paying a premium for a current year pick isn't...

Please re-read my post. I'm not sure how to make it clearer. Nobody is arguing this point. People, myself included, are saying that the 2.05 in this trade isn't worth that much less than a future 1st (only if the 1st is guaranteed to be late), which has zero to do with Hill or Garcon...

I think all he's saying is it's fine to give up a future late-1st straight up for a current year mid-2nd if you have a loaded team and player you really like who you're targeting. Especially if you believe that the 2018 rookie class is deeper than the 2019 one will be.  Which in the context of...

I'm surprised on the Landry vs. Baldwin opinions like this one. Personally, it would take Baldwin plus late 1st/very early 2nd for me to move Landry. Landry was the WR4 last season in PPR (with Cutler at QB, so hard to view Taylor/Darnold as much of a step back). Baldwin was WR14 (even with...
