Please post how many teams and format and MFL link Thanks.
No one has their original picks. How does that happen in a 10 teamer?
Looking at that ADP, I think that:http://dev.nflprophet.com/zf_board.htm
If you play with deep rosters, this is the ADP for you.
Up to date Zealots league ADP. Posted in the Shark Pool, very relevant here. All rookie drafts, no mocks, from 53 man dynasty leagues.
This is GREAT. Thank you.http://dev.nflprophet.com/zf_board.htm

Nope, still not taken in mine either. I presume the current DE designation is depressing his value. I like what you're thinking though, especially given his track record--thanks for the summary--& the remarkable, uh...fluidity of the LAC LB corps the past couple of years. I agree that he could be a rewarding later pick.massraider said:Ummm, anybody see Uchenna Nwosu drafted anywhere yet?
2nd round pick, 6'2", 240. Listed as DE on MFL, that will probably change. If it doesn't, that could be a sneaky DE.
His athletic testing was excellent. One of the few Force players in this draft, athleticism scores right there with top edge guys, and has played off ball LB. Chargers have room for an edge guy rushing the passer, and for true off ball LBs.
Thinking about him with last pick, because I cannot find him being drafted anywhere.
Yes, he went at 7.07 (45 man roster)massraider said:Ummm, anybody see Uchenna Nwosu drafted anywhere yet?

I think you might be in a league with Matt Adams' mom.Yes, he went at 7.07 (45 man roster)

Not sure if this is a good barometer. This draft was very different than any of my Zealots drafts. Matt Adams LB IND went at 2.03. I had to look up who he even was. Not sure what the deal is but after that he started going late in some Zealots drafts. Must have been a news article on him being a monster or something. Anyone got the skinny on Adams?
MFL has a sort option by NFL team and their ADP order is alphabetical at the IDP positions so if he was thinking of "that Indy LB" meaning without being overly familiar with Leonard it could be pretty easy to just click Adams.Yes, he went at 7.07 (45 man roster)

I picked him up in free agency. Not sure he stays at DE, might go back to OLB. The league that I picked him up is sack heavy if it helps.Nope, still not taken in mine either.

Done.http://www66.myfantasyleague.com/2018/options?L=42622&O=17
12 team, PPR, 47 man roster with 6 man taxi squad. FA as well.
Starts Thursday morning. I'm Boston, if you wanna critique my picks.
Davenport, Hurst, and Jewell at those spots are steals.Done.
If you ever wanted to see what a team with 20 rookie picks does with them, now's your chance.
Regarding Nwosu, I am hoping he stays at DE on MFL. More valuable. It seems like it's possible he might get looks as an off the ball LB, and pass rusher on 3rd down.I'm actually expecting something like 4 QBs in the 1st 6 or 7 picks in my couple of upcoming superflex drafts, & I expect Allen might go higher than one might think too. Once Barkley's gone, I expect the QBs to go quickly, except for the teams already set enough at QB who can afford the luxury of dipping into that post-Barkley tier of RBs.
Re: the Uchenna Nwosu Q. above., in the draft I linked to above, I wound up taking (the 2nd copy of) Nwosu w/ the very last pick of the draft, 7.32 (the 1st copy of him in this 32-team league went at 7.21). Speculative dart throw in the hopes that MFL changes his position to LB, since I've seen nothing but the Chargers referring to him as a LB. (If so, a 2nd.-rd. LB w/ the last pick in a draft? Not too shabby.)
So how early's too early for Tremaine Edmunds? In the SUPER-handy Zealots ADP massraider posted, he's ranked 19, w/ a range of being taken 1st at 8 (& last at 30). I'm thinking of reaching for him in the late 1st round (!) 'cuz I think his upside & situation are so great, despite the potential folly of passing on an offensive player at that point, & 'cuz I doubt he'll make it back around to me in the late 2nd.
I typically don't do this but the two times I took a top LB late in the first ended up being Patrick Willis and C.J. Moseley so it didn't work out half bad. A lot depends on your league structure as mine has a salary cap structure and the rookie picks have salaries based on the round they go in and really LB is the only defensive position that would typically be worth the salary you'd pay them as a first round pick. Given that it is a 16 teamer and with the WR class being weak this year I see Roquan and Edmunds probably going in the late 1st and Vander Esch and Evans probably going somewhere in the 2nd. As having the 2.06 (22) I'm a bit torn on who's going to fall to me there, if its IDP its probably that second tier of LB's.^ Thanks for the SF info.
On the LB question: I've never been afraid to "overdraft" a little bit to get the player(s) I want. Unless you've got a big gap in value between Edmunds and the player you DON'T pick, you should take the guy you want. Selecting a player a half-round early b/c you know he's not making it back to you is fine. Edmunds went 2.05 in mine and that seems to be his ADP.
Personally, I just don't see the value of Edmunds vs. the other LBs going later as a big enough gap to pass on a top RB in the late first. The top WRs are a different story, though, since most of them are being touted as future WR2, which isn't exactly enticing.
