I think that Ertz pick sunk him....he could of had any one of Ajayi/Drake/Guice/Penny at that pick...…. Lynch at rb1 is very flawed...
I agree in regards to the Graham pick after 3 WR being a mistake. I like the WR he selected a lot but the strategy causes him to reach on later picks and he doesn't get any value picks at WR. He only drafts one more WR after those top 3. So WR may not even be a strength as he lets other teams catch up with him there.
That is assuming that every team gets points for all of their players here?
That isn't clear to me as far as what are the positional starting requirements.
Lynch did perform decently last season at 31 years old although when I watched the Raiders he didn't really stand out as any better than the other two RB they were playing in rotation. Jon Gruden likely doesn't get cute like that though and rides Lynch until the wheels fall off. He broke Caddy with massive workloads. The problem is the defense though. This isn't the Bucs star studded defense.
I do like some of Clays later RB picks. However because of his strategy he is not getting good value in those later rounds because he waited too long to draft RB and is overcompensating for that by drafting so many weaker RB in the mid rounds.
I think McKinnon is very overvalued at that ADP he wont be on any of my teams....I mean Evans and AJ green on the board?
Totally agree this pick was a massive reach.
These guys are not drafting by ADP though. There are some players going way ahead of where ADP for them is. Tyler Lockett s ADP is 148th right now for example but he was selected at pick 83 in this draft.
I don't normally do 14 team re-drafts so its hard to tell with the two extra teams what it really means for my 12 team re-drafts
14 instead of 12 generally imbalances things compared to 12 where every team should have 4 good players to start off with those picks being in the top 50 players. With 14 teams you have 6 of the teams selecting their 4th player outside of the top 50.
I think 16 teams or 12 teams is a bit more balanced than 14 for snake drafts.
I have always been a take stud QB guy as well...but with rivers in round10 and Stafford and bigben in round11 Ill gladly play the waiting game this year, although my leagues never go like that anyway....I suspect the guys getting zeke/gurley & bell at the top grab Rodgers etc... at the 2/3 turn in my leagues
This is mostly the consensual arrogance of "experts" playing QB chicken as long as possible. Even beyond reason, unless this is 3 points per passing TD or something.
The more teams you have the more valuable the QBs become, even if you only have to start one. However most of these drafters treat the position like this is a 12 team draft and punt the position much longer than projections would suggest they should. The QB run doesn't happen until pick 88 and there are some hella weak picks like Chris Thompson being made the round before the QB run.
Josh Gordon before Tate, Diggs and other WR in later rounds does not seem very expert to me.
I think I like what the Huddle team did with their draft the best here although they do not have a TE if ASJ does not pan out.
Otherwise I like what Tim Jenson did with the top slot. He should have the best team going first.
