***Official*** Post Your 2016 Rookie Draft (1 Viewer)

Full disclosure: I'm one of the biggest fans of Kenneth Dixon in this forum, but even I would choose Corey Coleman over Dixon with little pause. At 1.05 though, Dixon is the clear choice in PPR and non-PPR.

Yeah, 4.58 is a little on the slow side, but his physical co-ordination (Body IQ) is top-shelf, and he runs with an attitude that you wish every under-performing pro RB had. I would not count on Forsett beyond 2016, and Buck Javorius is just a likeable guy. I'm betting that Harbaugh and I have similar expectations for Dixon.

Fun Fact: Kenneth Dixon had 889 NCAA touches and scored 87 touchdowns.

Chasing stats with this guy. Nice back no doubt and could carve out featured back role eventually but he has a couple of talented guys in front of him. 87 TDs nice accomplishment but wasn't doing this against best programs in the country. 

I keep thinking of Kevin Smith for some reason. Extremely prolific senior year and solid running and receiving. I know Dixon was very consistent throughout his college career. Seems like a guy who can do everything pretty well but I'm not spending an early pick on a guy who played against inferior competition and didn't absolutely dominate.  No idea if he can't put it together at next level. I know Waldman loves him and others are warming on him but no thanks.

Wouldn't touch with anything before 1.9 and only if RB needy.

 
Dixon just went 1.02 in our 14 team non-ppr league.
OK...This is the outlier draft.

14 teams non-PPR...qrwfffkd (yeah...3 flex so you can start 4 RBs if you want. Also non-TE req so TE's count as WR's)

I was hoping to get Treadwell and it turned out beautifully.  1.5, 1.6, and 1.7 were drafted by the same person, so who knows what the actual order is.

FWIW, someone is now trying to trade w me from 5 to 2, to get Henry, after I just acquired the 2 pick. 
Riiiiight to get "Henry." What if Corey Coleman's middle name is Henry?! 

Wait. Just looked it up.... Defelious. His middle name is Defelious. Unbelievable

I'm 100% not moving out of the the pick, so I couldnt care less. He tells me it's for Henry after I told him Im not going anywhere.

Everyone in our league are buddies for like 20yrs. The bull#### level is pretty low. I just had no idea Henry was going that high, and this guy is RB desperate, so I buy it

 
Any chance to update Google doc with latest drafts or open up public access for others to do so?
Been a long weekend I got stuck working 12+ hour days but i think i have it all caught up now. Also changed permissions so anyone can add to it if they like.

I got Henry at 1.10 last night. Was thrilled.

Well there was some uproar last night in another draft with guys getting their panties in a bunch because the guy who traded 1.4/Crowder for  1.3 apparently told the guy he traded with it was for Henry but then he went Treadwell. The guy called him out and others piled on saying it was morally wrong. Lmao. Like that kind of #### isn't common place in the War room and in every day business negotiations. Yeesh.

That is dirty play.  I only play in leagues with friends, and doing something dishonest like that would be grounds for removal.

But yes, if it's random people, he's an idiot for trusting him.

Ya, I know this happens, but in our league, it doesnt. Like I said... all buddies for a LONG time, and we do #### in person or via txt, and the business side fo it is pretty legit... no shenanigans beyond the usual stuff, and deals are made w a much lighter aura to them... no one has time for 6hrs of negotiations... the offers made are usually spot on, and never offensive.

But absolutely, lying in part of the "normal" fantasy game

Not how i operate in ffl (lie and steal) but some people have no scruples. In a home league or work where everyone knows each other I would think it's probably pretty fair, but if I'm in a league with people I don't really know then no way am I taking their word unless I've dealt with them enough to build that trust. I'm sure any future dealings with that owner and any other owner won't be very friendly.

Lame move on the guy to do that, but why would someone give up the rights to ensure they get "their guy" to move down ONE spot and acquire Crowder????  The other guy should've just told him "Henry is gonna be sitting there at 4, keep Crowder!"

I'd like my draft too if I was drafting with guys who take Lynch and Hackenburg at 2.3/2.4 respectively (first two QBs off board). Oof.
What do you want from me? I was as surprised as you were. That is why I traded up for Goff although I would have traded up for Lynch if he was there when I took Goff.

Absolutely nothing.

I think Cooper and Miller were steals. Surprised to see Barber drafted before them (or at all for that matter). Should be available on WW post draft. First draft I've seen Addison taken as well, probably shouldn't have been.

I was debating between the 2. If I had know they would both be there at 3.06 3.07, I wouldn't have traded up for Goff since I had both picks.

On a lark I looked at rosters.

Is this a start 1 WR league? Helmets not Optional drafted Devontae Booker at 1.06 while having Todd Gurley, Devonta Freeman, Jeremy Hill and Charles Sims rostered; meanwhile his #1 WR is Brandin Cooks and his #2 WR is Stefon Diggs.

That MFL skin is pretty lol.

Looked at it amazingly its 2/3/1/1 Flex and PPR.

It's a flex league so we start 2-3 RB and 3-4 WRs.

 
You shoulda taken Doctson over Shepard.
Maybe...but I get the feeling he's going to be the Wes Welker to Odell Beckham's Randy Moss.  I really think Shepard is going to be immense in that West Coast offense with the role he'll have.

But time, as always, will tell.

Your logic MIGHT be valid in ppr.

Your league is non-ppr.
