1/2ppr In the league where I have the 1.6 pick but commenting anyway
Not sure if you didn’t include Zeke cuz you think he's top 5 or if you think he's not worthy of consideration at 1.6 but I think he’s in the mix at this spot too.
right now I’m learning Jones but good preseason buzz around Zeke (Dez health plus how Zeke himself is looking) or Taylor (Wentz return for week1 likely) might sway me in either of those directions.
someone convince me why I should take Chubb at this slot. I guess I just fear Hunt too much.
I have Zeke going in top 5.
1.01 - CMC
1.02 - Cook
1.03 - Henry
1.04 - Kamara
1.05 - Zeke
I'm not considering Barkley at 6. I have been burned by him before and I don't trust his health or the Giants at this point. Jones is a beast and I think he will be great with Williams out of the picture. However, he has never had a big workload before and Rodgers looks to throw first inside the 5. Taylor scares me in year 2 and so does that offensive line. They may stack the box and things may get tougher if Wentz is out. Chubb is an absolute stud and would be ranked higher if it weren't for Hunt. How much does he drop though.

in standard, Chubb should be over Kamara this year. Kamara's 80-90 receptions all lose value and Hunt's impact on Chubb is a little overrated.

That’s the pick I have in our non PPR league, so very interested in this thread. I had been thinking Zeke if he lasted, but not sure that he will.

I've seen him going pretty high in ppr drafts. Not that I believe in "expert" drafts, but here's where he's landed in some of those drafts (ppr, July drafts):

If it's standard, I think sound argument can be made for him being drafted mid 1st round.

Not sure I buy that that is ppr in that first one as ekeler went very late. That, and/or that Howard dude is trolling. Chubb at 1.3 and Mike Davis at 3.03???? In ppr? Not buying it.
Bald Bull

I'm not disagreeing, but in standard, I think an argument can be made for Chubb to go as soon as 3rd. I see Davis going in the 4th round in most drafts; he does catch passes.

Davis' average draft position is 5.04. Most drafts, he's going round 5. Early 3rd and I think this data is skewed or this Howard guy had a few too many drinks before his mock.

5.04?? Fantasyfootball calculator has him going mid 4th round and climbing. Either way, I digress. Chubb is arguably the best pure running back in the league and I can see him going mid 1st round in standard.

I could also "see him" going mid first round in standard. I was responding to your "If Chubb somehow drops as low as 1.06"
Pretty safe bet he will drop that low in the majority of leagues.

1. great offense and O line
2. 2nd year
3. finished season strong
4. Durable, low mileage
5. Improved QB play likely

This could probably be merged with the 5-8 draft position topic. or at least OP night get some quality info there.

Counterintuitive perhaps, but Davante Adams should still be among leaders in touchdowns.
Even so, his ytd point total doesn't match that of top RB's in a non-ppr in standard scoring formats.
With that and still at the 6 spot in a non-ppr, Chubb, Taylor and Jones are three worth considering.
Again, I think Chubb is the best pure RB in the NFL but has Hunt to compete with at times. Taylor may have the most upside of the 3, but there are some question marks in Indy right now which hurt his value. Jones has done a ton with limited volume. Does it increase or does Dillon step in.
With a longer season and the fact RB's get banged up, we all need to be prepared for more resting from top back.
Still leaning towards Chubb. First draft is tonight.

I’d probably include Elliott on that list.
Chubb’s upside is capped by Hunt. Taylor’s by Hines (and possibly Mack)
If Mixon is available at 6 I’d probably take him.
good luck!

Adams scored 17.38ppg last year on non-ppr. That's more than any rb other than CMC, Kamara, cook, and Henry.
Chubb was 15.9, Taylor 14.4, Jones 15.1.
Obviously we don't get points for last year's stats but Adams at his best absolutely beats ~RB5 in raw points, and by quite a bit.
