5th pick - Keeper league, WHIR (1 Viewer)

[4th&inches]

12-team, .5PPR, 4pt Passing TD, 3yr Keeper league

I have the 5th pick & my keepers are:

• Kamara (6th rd)
  
• Chubb (8th rd)
  
• Watson (9th rd) or Lindsay (11th)
  

I expect both Nuk and Kelce to be there at 5, but there's also a chance Zeke falls due to his holdout. Who should I draft with the 5th overall pick:

• Nuk
  
• Kelce (Ertz, Kittle, & OJ Howard will all be kept)
  
• Zeke (if available)
  

 Leave a link and I'll respond to all posts

I would take Hopkins.  He may be my #5 player if nobody was being kept so the fact you think he will still be there at 1.05 with everyone's keepers is surprising....but if he is there I think you need to take him.

Thank you. I anticipate the 1st 4 picks looking like:

1. Barkley
   
2. CMC
   
3. Zeke
   
4. DJ/ Bell 
   

RB's tend to be drafted far earlier in this league and I expect this year to be no different. My only hesitation for drafting Nuk over Kelce was that 3 of the top 4 TE's are being kept, leaving Engram and Henry as the only other 2 I'd be targeting before the "late round guys"

I wouldn't stop anyone from taking Zeke, it doesn't feel the same as the Bell situation, but my answer is Nuk. His playoff schedule is amazing and he is going to be a WR1 even if something were to happen to Watson, look at who was throwing him the ball before. You're going to be in a good position to get 2 RB's in the 2nd and 3rd.  Watching drafts with Zeke, you got to take an insurance early.
