Need some help on these Keepers (1 Viewer)

Throwing this out there one more time, decision set in stone tomorrow. League is a 12team PPR 2flex league.

I have the 7th pick in this league. I can keep 2 of these 3 players.....who do you think I should keep? Is Lamar a no brainer? In general I feel like QB isn't that strong of a position in Fantasy so I feel like I should keep the others. I also live in Wisconsin and I feel like Watson is going to have a big season....but I'm surely biased. In any case let me know what you think please!

James Cook - Cost my 6th round pick
Lamar Jackson - Cost my 9th round pick
Christian Watson - Cost my 11th round pick
 
for the picks you are giving up I would say all three are easy keepers for me. but I would say two of the three gives me pause and it would depend on what I think will be available instead of those players.

for a 9th round pick i think Lamar is a definite keep. only thing that gives me pause is Henry, how he may shift any redzone runs away from Lamar. If you look at Gus's stats last year though, maybe I'm overthinking it. 198/810/13 for Gus, 148/821/5 for Lamar rushing. take away maybe 20ish attempts and 1 TD from Lamar for Henry, which isn't insignificant. I'd still keep him because he's Lamar. What other QB's would be available?

Cook in the 6th feels like a no brainer as a keeper. I keep seeing Ray Davis mentions pop up around the boards, but I just don't see anyone other than Allen and the injury bug as a threat to Cook's touches.

Admittedly I'm not a big Watson guy and he's been dinged up way too much already in his young career for my taste. Talent is there, but i think Reed and even Wicks will do more this year for Love. Doubs is an underachiever, so not worried about him. All that said, I don't think Watson would last to the 11th round of a redraft, so that cost is well worth it. If he stays healthy, with Love still developing, there should be lots of highlight reels.

Thanks, great response. Right now I'm leaning towards keeping Cook and Lamar. Even though I feel like Watson will have a good year, that is one crowded WR room. If Watson still out there 8th, 9th, pretty please 10th round I would grab him.
 
Agreed. Easy. Cook and Jackson.

If you really like Watson, reach for him in the 9th. Won't cost you anything.

Good work!
