5- Guice

I must be insane I took Sutton at 10 over Penny in this draft.  Penny was ADP pick 3 in most drafts before training camp began and Sutton was ADP 12.

I mulled it over for 3 hours back and forth before pulling the trigger.  Funny how a month ago I would have never dreamed I would have done that.

I picked Guice at 1.06...figured talent is there and will most likely have to wait on Chubb for playing time and not sold on Penny...

 
In our draft Barkley of course went 1st....followed by Freeman, Michel, I chose Kerryon, Penny, Hines, Jones, Chubb, Moore, Ridley, Guice, Wilkins

It was hard to pass on Penny and it may end up being a mistake but I prefer to go with players with a buzz, making plays and turning heads.  Passed on Jones for the same reason...he has an open competition and is clearly thumped and looks sub-pedestrian.  Maybe he bounces back and gets it but I'll let someone else take that risk. 

I also snagged Guice late and will park him for a year as a bit of insurance.

12- Michael Gallup (pick traded for a future 1st (prolly in the 7-9 range) and small upgrade from a 4th to a 3rd this year.

13- Anthony Miller

ROnald Jones dropping like a rock.  He went pick 6 in my FFPC draft in May where the top 8 picks were RBs.
Is Ridley in your top 12 now ?

 
As of today if I had to rank them all again:

saquan - no words needed   He is as advertised   

michel - as many thought - BB doesn’t draft a rb in the 1st RD to not use him.  Now that he is rounding into form after the preseason “procedure” we are starting to get a good feel for his current value as a solid rb2 and immense potential as time goes on.  Still a significant injury risk.  

chubb - BEAST.  I have a feeling if he was getting 12+ carries per week in that browns offense he would be ahead of Michel for me.  

lindsay - UFA blah blah blah.  He is the truth.  Freeman is solid but Lindsay is ELECTRIC.  

freeman - very good rb.  Currently stuck as the lesser part of an RBBC.  If he were featured more he could be tied with Michel.  

kerryon - very good RB.  Same issue as Freeman. 

hines - really talented RB for ppr leagues. In a great situation with Luck and a team that can’t run the ball to save their lives.  

rojo - I only place him above Penny BC I feel he has less standing in front of him for the starting job...which he could win as soon as this week providing he shows even a glimpse of USC rojo vs ATL.  

penny - beast of a college RB facing Subpar competition.  Now he can’t wven beat out Carson and mike Davis.  Also has a weight issue.  Could be the next fat Eddie lacy. 

wilkins - he sucks. Lol 

 
I think the only player who has a huge drop is probably Rojo.  Lindsay and Hines are probably both in the first round now.

Lacy at least provided a good season or two before he turned into garbage.

I rode him to a title one season.
