Keeper help (0.5 PPR - 12 Team) (1 Viewer)

Hey all -

0.5 PPR - 12 Team league. I will be drafting in the 9 spot. 6 pts ALL Tds.

Potential keepers:

S. Barkley (9th overall)
J. Allen (2nd Round - 16th overall)
DJ Moore (4th)
R. White (5th)

White is my best value - so going to keep him. DJM seems 2nd best value - but QBs go early in our league (Maholmes, Allen, Hurts, all picked in 2nd round last year).

1st Round Keepers expected to be kept before me.

Ceedee (3rd overall)
Bijan (4th overall)
Hill (5th overall)
Chase (8th overall)

Notable keepers after my pick:

CMC (11th overall)
Gibbs (3rd round)
Breece (4th round)
JT (2nd round)

I think the question is DJM at round 4? Or Allen at Round 2 and be done at QB? Both seem to be around their ADP depending on leagues, with a slight nod to DJM.

Thanks!
 
if you can only keep two players I keep the best two players. Value isn't as big a deal as it's more important to get a tier 1 player as your keeper. Based on your info that your league heavily drafts QB's that makes Allen one of my keepers for sure. After that it is really close. Do you think Barkley (or equal) will make it to your pick at 1.09? If you think so then I likely rule Barkley out of contention and take my chances at pick 1.09. If he would be by far better than what will be there for you then I think Barkley is my choice for the 2nd keeper.

I would probably put Moore over White because i don't think White is very good. I could see his volume decrease causing him to fall quite a bit.

Appreciate your input thank you!
 
Based on ADP, Barkley is worth pick 14 (a lot of people would argue higher including me but let's stay objective). 8 players you mention are going in front of Barkley. So you add up those 8 plus the 8 slots in front of you and Barkley won't be there and you are gaining some value keeping him.

With only 13 rounds, I'm not keeping Allen. Let those guys draft the QBs early and in round 13 take Goff, Tua, or Purdy. There will also be options on the wire.

In half point ppr White and Moore should be drafted in the same area. You get almost a 2 round bum keeping White over Moore....4.4 vs 5.9.

Appreciate it - yeah there are 4 actual picks occurring before me (4 first round keepers before me per above).

Note: Team 3 has Ceedee and JT. so I made a mistake above. My guess is he'll actually keep JT in the 2nd (22nd overall), which means Ceedee will be available since we cannot keep 2 w/in the first 4 rounds.

I have the first 8 projected as follows:

1. Ceedee (if not kept)
2. ARSB
3. Barkley/Wilson/AJ Brown - - Ceedee could be kept here, and thus JT becomes available.
4. Bijan (keeper)
5. JJ (keeper)
6. Hill (keeper)
7. Barkley/Wilson/AJ Brown
8. Chase (keeper)
9. Me



It's close - Barkley may/may not get to me at 9 overall if I don't keep him. The best RBs available in first two rounds will be Barkley, Henry, Etienne. Kyren Williams is being kept in a late round.

I guess the question is - Would you rather have Barkley in front of AJ Brown/Wilson? Or draft best WR and aim for Henry/Etienne/WR in round 2?

Thanks!

How do you rank Barkley with those three guys? If they are all on the same tier to you then I would let him go because it will give the most flexibility and you can adjust at your pick if something strikes you. If you have Barkley a tier above those guys then I just keep Barkley.

For me, I keep Barkley
