2018 rookie pick 1.01 pre combine (Closed) (1 Viewer)

The purpose of these polls is to get an idea of who the majority of voters prefer at a specific pick in a rookie draft. These drafts assume that all 2018 rookie players are available. For the 2QB poll there may be some variance in scoring. Some may be standard, others PPR. I think a lot of 2QB leagues may involve IDP as well so these differences are not accounted for here. Only looking at the offensive skill players in the two most common formats and also 2QB leagues, to get a sense of where the QB are valued relative to other positions, when there is actually scarcity at the QB position.

If a player isn't listed that you would vote for please vote other and then post the name of the player that you voted for so that player can be added to the next poll.

I haven't watched enough players yet to have a list, so I will populate the polls based off of Zypros overall list and Hankmoodys tiers for now. Suggestions of players to add helpful.

Discussion welcome.Thanks for voting.

LOVE this rookie poll series from you, Bia.

Last year, I found it extremely useful to have the "I don't play this format" option, since I only play in 2 non-ppr dynasty leagues.

For this one, I simply voted "other" and have no names to provide. sorry

Yeah I just realized I forgot that option. Will fix thanks.

Let's move on to #2

Actually I'm really interested to see if anyone votes other than Barkley in any format.

Yeah I do not expect this one to take long.

I think in the 2qb voting you need to add a few qb options for the subsequent posts- you have Allen, mayfield, and Rosen listed but I feel darnold and Jackson are right up there fantasy wise. My $.02

I had all 5 of them in there originally but took out Sam for Dont play in the format option. He will be the player added in poll 1.02 and then there will be 5 QB in the poll instead of 4.

I guess I missed Jackson in there- it will be really interesting to see the order those guys go.

Yep. I'd probably take all 5 in the 3-7 range right now. (2QB)

That’s probably where they will go, but it’s probable? that 1-2 will absolutely bust, right? I have the guys I like better than others and I think I’d draft them that way too- as in I’d be taking rb or maybe we prospects ahead of them.

sure.  just like it's probable that a few of the top RB and WR bust.  

Not even I could put Guice 1st yet.

Who should be the next QB to add after Sam Darnold?

I may keep 5 QB available in that poll even after one of them wins.

Mason Rudolph.

For more standard formats, I think the best players not-yet-included are James Washington, Courtland Sutton, Royce Freeman, and Rashaad Penny. You could also use this list.
