Keeper: Lamb or Jeanty? (1 Viewer)

[DC27]

New to the forum - I draft tonight. Non-PPR, I have the 2nd pick. Ja'Marr & Barkley are kept. Bijan will go first. We can keep any player on a 3-year contract. CeeDee Lamb seems like the clear next choice, but I'm weighing whether to take Ashton Jeanty and get him for the next 3 years - his prime. How great will this kid be? Again, non-PPR, pretty standard otherwise. Should I jump for Jeanty over Lamb?

I wouldn't take an unproven rookie for that pick no matter how good the experts say he will be.

Thanks for the insight, Gally. My keepers are Nabers/JSN at WR and Chase Brown/B. Irving at RB. I feel like I can go either WR or RB here and have a pretty set 2 RB - 2WR + 1 Flex setup after one round. If not for the keeper element, I'd go CeeDee every day and twice today (on Sunday)! Only hesitation is... if Jeanty is the next great (Saquon-type) RB, I could lock him up for 3 years.
