Keeper advice, Aaron Jones vs. Jayden Daniels (1 Viewer)

[ColKurtz]

In one of my 12-team PPR leagues, we 2 do straight-up keepers, no cost, just have to be different positions and can only keep a player for 3 seasons. Given that the top 10 or so RBs are off the board on draft day, not having a solid RB keeper is a pretty big disadvantage. But my RB situation is lacking. I have Pacheco and Hunt, but Pacheco did squat post-injury and they brought in Mitchell... it's mess I've avoiding. I have Chubb, but pretty sure he's done.

Trey Benson and Aaron Jones are my most likely options. Benson would be a gamble of taking over an aging Connor, whereas an aging Jones is going to have even less carries this year with Jordan Mason on board. Both scenarios might be 1A/1B backfields.

I'm leaning towards keeping Jones, but I also have Jayden Daniels. We play 6-point QB TDs, and his rookie season makes me think he could be more valuable than the RB30+ where Jones and Benson would be.

Thoughts?

Daniels for the next 3 seasons

100% Jayden Daniels.....he could be the overall QB1 over the next 3 seasons. Will you have chances to draft incoming rookie RB's?

I assume it's a 1 QB league. Also, 6 pt for all TD's lowers running QB values quite a bit. How many QB's are usually kept? If there aren't many QB's kept and you will be able to get a top 5-10 QB in the draft that also limits the value in keeping Daniels.

Generally, I would say keep Jones based on positional scarcity but that is a pretty low keeper that has no guarantee of doing much. Daniels is fun to have but he is also a risk.

You said you get two keepers, but it seems like you are asking about only keeping one of Jones/Daniels/Benson. Who is your other keeper?
