How is yours going? All done yet?
I did another of these this morning from the 10 spot. Decided to double down on this notion that we might need to really target the RBs early this year in redraft. So I went basically zero-WR here. Specifically RB/RB/RB/RB/QB/TE followed by 5 WRs:
Lamar 5, Tua 17
Swift 1, Gibson 2, Harris 3, J Williams 4, Jefferson 12, Felton 15
Viska 7, Reagor 10, G Davis 11, Perriman 18, Chase 8, Waddle 9, Bateman 14, E Moore 16
Hockenson 6, Firkser 13
Chargers 20 Lutz 19
Gonna need some WRs to really emerge.
Sweet RB's. Can't remember if RTS will change positions after the draft and Felton could become a WR but yes the team just needs some WR's to emerge.
BTW-you might know this already but I did not know myself until a few drafts in last year but you don't have to actually draft a K or D in this contest right now. You might have wanted to anyway but in case you did not know, say for instance you wanted to roster another rookie and see how it shakes out.
On my draft it only ended two days ago. I was out of the 1 hole and my original plan, always my plan with these early drafts, is to try to get value on players before NFL draft or FA does something to spike their value. Rookie RB's is the best play for this kind of thing but I was a in bad spot for the Big 3, I'd have had to take them at 24/25, all gone by next time I picked and I kind of thought that might happen so my plan was this: Take CMC, and basically don't worry about his health, in other words just figure he's RB1 and if he goes down the team can't accomplish it's ultimate goal anyway. Then I wanted to load up on players I felt were bona fide WR1's, players who are draft/FA proof and then after I put 3-4 stud WR's with CMC I would gobble up RB's I thought would win in FA and non Big 3 rookie RB's with the idea with CMC locking down RB1 and my WR's filling out rest of my lineup I only needed to hit one RB. In many ways reverse of your draft were you threw a bunch of WR's up against the wall, I threw a bunch of RB's up against the wall.
Hurts 8, Lawrence 12
CMC 1, Drake 6, Fournette 7, Sermon 10, Penny 11, Michael Carter 13, Vaughn 14, Khalil Herbert 20
Michael Thomas 2, AJB 3, Godwin 4, Diontae 5, Emmanuel Sanders 18, Elijah Moore 19
Goedert 9, Ebron 14, Everett 16
Butker 17
No D
So far the trying to get a jump on FA value has failed. When I took Drake/Fournette at 6/7 turn the guy I wanted as Carson but he went 6.9. SEA ends up resigning Carson of course, had reported strong interest in Fournette and I end up with Penny later. This is the shots you take in FA, I was thisclose to locking down expected top two SEA RB's at a nice cost which you'd think likely gives me at least a RB2 but I might have nothing. Drake did not land well. So FA was not good so far to my RB plan with FA's, but did give the few rookie RB's I was able to gather more open spots.
JuJu was unexpected slight hurt to Diontae and Ebron but were I picked I don't think I'd have changed anything.
I did like Everett's landing for the cost I paid and Sanders was ok as a 5th WR, he can still play at a very high level so FA shots went ok with these two but nothing great.
I can see a scenario were my plan goes off well, I can see a scenario were this team blew 1.1.
