Which rookie QB to draft in dynasty PPR? (1 Viewer)

[NeverEnough]

I'm having a tough time deciding & I am on the clock. I keep wanting to go Trubisky, but then I have second thoughts & think well maybe Mahomes or Watson is the right move. I'm liking all the good stuff about Trubisky lately, but I am intrigued by Mahomes' upside and Watson seems like the safe play here.

It's a start 1 QB league & I have Stafford, but no backup QB.

I'd take Kizer over all them. Assuming he's gone, I guess I'd go Mahomes, just for the ceiling.

They are all still there. I'm trying to trade down to make my decision easier. Why Kizer?

I'd take Watson - there's a lot to be said for a guy who knows how to win.  Also, the clearest path to starting.  Mahomes and Trubisky, you may have to wait a year to see what you've got.  Watson is only a couple of mediocre Tom Savage starts from taking over.

I think he's the most talented one, and he's also the one most likely to be useful this year, as he's likely starting week 1, which is useful to you since you have nothing at all behind Stafford.

Trubisky is just a couple bad Glennon starts away too, though. /devilsadvocate

True that, but Fox will stick with Glennon a lot longer than O'Brien will stick with Savage.  And I think Watson's college experience puts him ahead of Trubisky when the defenses are more than pre-season vanilla.

But travdogg might be on to something with Kizer.

I agree with travdogg and am targeting Kizer in my drafts.  I like the way he has moved in the pocket and he has a strong arm.  Cleveland seems to be moving in the right direction now (I know it is Cleveland but eventually they have to get it right) and Kizer will be there guy.  He has already made big strides and looks to have won the job.  Kizer is easily my top rookie QB choice.
