I'm in that annual lull where the rookie talent evaluation phase is winding down and the situational phase is a couple weeks away. But that doesn't mean we can't engage in a talent/opportunity discussion with this year's crop.
As a starting point, I took the GBN mock draft (3 rounds), which established the following landing spots for the guys we're all watching. So my question is, if the draft were to fall this way, what's your best guess at picks 1.01 - 1.12 in a non-IDP 12 team dynasty league? This is not about the accuracy of their mock, more just an exercise in how we evaluate talent vs. situation when drafting rookies. For example, how far does Pittman rise and Irons fall if this were to play out? Just for giggles, of course . . .
Your menu options:
Russell - Oakland
Quinn - Cleveland
Stanton - KC
Peterson - Minnesota
Lynch - Tennessee
Leonard - GB
Jackson - Indy
Bush - Chicago
Irons - SD
Pittman - Buffalo
Hunt - Atlanta
Booker - Denver
CJ - Detroit
Ginn - Jax
Bowe - Dallas
Jarrett - KC
Meacham - NYJ
Smith - SD
Davis - Chicago
Gonzales - Carolina
Williams - Minnesota
Rice - Miami
Walker - NYG
Allison - SF
Olsen - GB
Miller - Seattle
OK - that's your cast of characters - what's your first round look like?
