Ware has been pretty disappointing overall. In PPR leagues he has only score more than 11 points in 4 games. And the great unknown is Charles. I think there are better opportunities.
I think a good argument could be made to put Cook and Mccaferry on this list, depending on their landing spot.
It used to be that you had to be aware of time shares in RBBC, but now you have to pay attention to how that RBBC is split.
In some cases, you have really good receiving RBs that don't get receptions anymore because their back-up comes in on passing downs and 2 minute drives. You can make a case that Booker, Ware, and Forte are better receivers than Bibbs, West, and Powell, yet they get almost no action on passing downs. That kills their PPR value. I rather have these RBs share series.
People that put Ware that high next year haven't been paying attention to this year.
I'll take a stab at the first round of what I think it will be (PPR):
1. David Johnson - Stud both running and receiving. , No pre-season concerns about a timeshare. Focus of the offense.
2. EE - I think we see a shift to getting a premiere RB again next season. Lots of good receivers available.
3 Antonio Brown - Drops to third due to a shift back to RB.
4. L. Bell - Without the injury and drug suspension history would be in the to 2 or 3. Antonio is a safer pick at 3.
5. Evans - Ascending star gets a slight edge over volatile OBJ.
6 OBJ - Character maturity concerns add an element of risk to make him lower than Evans.
7. Julio Jones- A stud, but a stud with injury concerns plus Ryan is more open to spreading the ball around now that he has more options.
8. AJ Green - The offense should go through him. Less risk than others below.
9. Murray - Great season, but there will be concerns that his back-up eats into his role.
10. Ajayi - The hype will be in full swing. No depth and healthy oline will fuel that hype.
11. Gordon - There will be some Woodhead concerns that will make some people people it's a risky pick.
12. Howard - More off-season hype as the offense will roll through him.
Early second round just missing the first. Dez Bryant.(should be healthy) Gurley (people will be turned off by this year and scared the offense won't improve much), McCoy's injury history scares off some people. AP will land somewhere in the second.
