I play in a 12-team keeper league. We can keep anywhere from 4-6 players from year to year. Our draft starts at the "5th round" and so if you only keep 4 players, and have a 5th round pick available, essentially you have a first-round pick. If you keep 5 players, then you wouldn't pick until the 6th round. If you keep 6 players, then you wouldn't draft until round 7, which is the 3rd-round of picks.
I've shed a few players that I don't plan to keep or trade, but some of the remaining players on my roster are:
QB - Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow
RB - D'Andre Swift, Ronald Jones
WR - Calvin Ridley, Mike Evans, D.J. Moore, Denzel Mims, Jarvis Landry, Laviska Shenault
I'm a team that went through a pretty hard rebuild starting two years ago, but built up my roster a bit through the draft and a couple of trades last year and want to become a contender this year.
I don't draft until the 7th pick (and this could move up if the teams in front of me keep 5 or more players - and assuming I just keep 4). Leaning towards just keeping Swift, Ridley, Evans, and Moore. Other than Mahomes and one or two other quarterbacks no one tends to keep players at that position so I will drop Burrow and Jackson and may try and draft them later. I would love to trade Jackson but his value is hard to determine in our league.
Thinking about who "might" be available when I draft are guys like Kyle Pitts, Trey Sermon (RB - San Fran), "maybe"Chase if all of the RBs (Harris, Etienne, Carter, Williams) go first. Have also floated Ridley out there in hopes of getting a haul now with Jones gone but curious what type of value I should be looking for. I'm keeping him unless I get a giant deal.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
