Ok, got your attention! On the surface a ridiculous question. But....
League has quirky rules. Sorry for the long question, but to understand fully my question:
12 team, 5 man keeper, touchdown heavy non-PPR, QBs 6 pt. TDs
5 year contracts
One keeper has to be a rookie from previous season (ex. Fournette, JuJu this year)
I have the #4 pick. There are 3 no brainers coming off contract: L. Bell, A. Rodgers, and A. Brown.
The first pick will be Barkley, without a doubt. The next 3 are up in the air. I would take Bell or Rodgers without hesitation because my RBs are not so great (McCoy and Mack, my rookie) and I have a trade worked out for Cam (my keeper QB) if I wind up with Rodgers. But AB scares me a bit. While he'll obviously help in the short run, I don't think I get 5 years out of him,and feel like a decline is coming, while Freeman looks like a future superstar. Plus, I have M. Thomas and TY Hilton, so while not AB, decent WRs in a start-2 WR league. Should I roll the dice on a potential game-changer, or take the safe pick? As an FYI, based on CBS rankings, Freeman is #9 on the board and they don't even take our rookie premium into account. There aren't many "studs" on the board. You're looking at guys like Burkhead and T. Coleman sitting ahead of him.
Thanks so much for any thoughts on this.
