If you were doing a Dynasty Draft Today and had #1 Overall- Who are you taking? (PPR Scoring) (1 Viewer)

[Ack88]

At the fear of overreacting, I think it's Ja'Marr Chase for me, but I'm curious to hear what others think.

It really pains me to say this, but Jonathan Taylor.

 

[ffmail4me]

Taylor has to be on a very short list (along with Cook) at RB. Age/wear has to be a factor with Henry and injury concerns a factor with CMC and Barkley.

trading down to 7 and getting an equal talent

 Cool, please name your top 7 that are all equal to each other.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Kyle Pitts. Cheat code WR playing TE. On pace for 80+ catches & 1300+ yards as a rookie?

Easy call.

I like Chase, but Pitts sure looks like the next Kelce. 

 

[IHEARTFF]

 Cool, please name your top 7 that are all equal to each other.

well I would probably put Chase/Pitts/Taylor/Jefferson/Lamb/Harris/Saquon/Swift/CMC on the same tier

 

[IHEARTFF]

If I couldn't trade down, probably have to take Pitts 

 

[da_budman]

I would go Harris....1st year rb doing well.  

 

[rockaction]

If I were to go with wide receiver (see how I narrowed it down there) I would go with Justin Jefferson. He gets more targets and has more yards and has done it for a full year. The only thing that gives me pause is the stability factor and coaching situation in Minnesota. Who is coming into town? 

So Chase is an acceptable answer, as are others.

If I were going other positions, I'd go Jonathan Taylor at RB and Kyle Pitts at TE. I don't even think there are many questions about that latter one, the former seems obvious to me on talent alone. 

 

[fightingillini]

 I would love a top 5 pick, guarantees me one of Taylor, N Harris, Chase, Jefferson, and Pitts.

I would probably go either Chase or Taylor at 1.1

 

[needanap]

I would take Pitts with the hope I did not have to give a thought about TE for the next 10 years.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I would take Pitts with the hope I did not have to give a thought about TE for the next 10 years.

I just completely demolished my aging dynasty team, with only a small corps of young WR & QB talent left, and one of my deals was selling Hopkins for 1.08 (Pitts) and a 2022 2nd. 

so I’m doing exactly that - building around Pitts. Had Chase also been there (he went 1.06 - SF league) I would likely still have gone with Pitts. 

 

[FairWarning]

Pitts

Kyle Pitts. Cheat code WR playing TE. On pace for 80+ catches & 1300+ yards as a rookie?

Easy call.

I like Chase, but Pitts sure looks like the next Kelce. 

I would go Harris....1st year rb doing well.  

depending on format including lineup I’d go with one of these.  Pitts could be another gonzo or gronk, almost unfair to others. 

 

[ratbast]

I would have to consider Metcalf along with many previously mentioned. 

 

[travdogg]

Taylor has to be on a very short list (along with Cook) at RB. Age/wear has to be a factor with Henry and injury concerns a factor with CMC and Barkley. 

Cook is only a year younger than Henry and has been banged up a ton, and I say that as somebody who has him in dynasty. 

I'll go a little off book, and say DK Metcalf. He's 23, and is as impressive a physical specimen as there is. His route running has improved year by year, and his only potential flaw seems to be long term QB, though Wilson leaving could just be empty smoke.

Jonathan Taylor


.

Got Taylor in the second round of my Dynasty draft last year. Chase in the first this year.  Happy so far. Now if I could just find a steady QB . . . .

 

[voiceofunreason]

I would go Harris....1st year rb doing well.  

It's all volume and the future of the offense is ugly at qb. Not in the conversation.

 

[massraider]

Kyle Pitts. Cheat code WR playing TE. On pace for 80+ catches & 1300+ yards as a rookie?

Easy call.

yep

I can get behind this since I just took Taylor at #2 overall in a dynasty start up this past summer.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

Taylor went in Round 2 of a rookie draft?

 

[Dr. Octopus]

I wouldn’t take Harris either but the present of the offense is ugly at QB already.

 

[Truebluey]

Taylor went in Round 2 of a rookie draft?

Last year was the start up draft of our League. 

I was more surprised to get Chase at pick 5 this year.
