Gotta be honest but I think Kelce is going to take a little hit to his numbers this season. I think both Tyreek (because of his awesome) and Watkins (because...maybe?) will siphon some of his market share.
You can't really say that when he single-handedly carried my entire team to the Fantasy Championship game 3 years ago. He CAN be enormously productive, but he doesn't seem to do well opposite even a competent (Robert Woods) partner.
I mean, congrats on your championship and his half a season of good production 3 years ago... but I've ridden his hype train yearly, so I know first hand what it's like to own him, and outside of that stretch 3 YEARS AGO, he's been a consistently disappointing hype queen.
I will say if you actually did this, that is a ballsy move, and unnecessary too, couldn't you have both? I mean if you take Odell at 1.08, tyreek is certainly there in round2, perhaps round3....
I value tyreek over ODB. A fat and happy ODB doesn't excite me. Yes you couod get them both but ill pass on ODB, grab a RB, and take tyreek in the 2nd.
That’s rather early for a 10-teamer. 30th overall? Was Davonte Adams there? Or Michael Thomas?
First of all, I don’t have any reason to make false claims, what do I have to gain? OBJ has been great, but this is this year and I have reservations about him. Injuries, old Eli, more weapons/less targets, always seems to be angry with the team, just got his big contract (although not at draft time).Wooters said:
There were some keepers off the board, so not round 3. I may have been able to wait until rd 2 but I wanted my guy.bicycle_seat_sniffer said:
I got him @ 3.09 in a ten teamer too (non-ppr). Started my draft with Gordon and Fournette, so I'm happy. Yahoo's "analysis" gave me a C-, but that happens every year.
Adams, Thomas, Evans, Green were all gone by 3.10. WR choices there were Hill, Hilton, Diggs, Thielen, and Baldwin
Good choice. Diggs would have been my only other consideration, but Hill has the better upside & less injury history.
He’s been climbing steadily since he blew up the preseason. I thought I was reaching a little af 3.12/4.01 since at that time his ADP was early-to-mid 4th.
I ended up going Hill and Hilton with the double picks (3.10 & 4.01) over Drake/Mixon/Collins/Henry. Opted for Hilton over the Minny WRs slightly just because of the 1a/1b uncertainty with Cousins there
10 team standard redraft took Hill at 3.7, then Baldwin at 4.4 as WR1&2
I'd take Diggs. They are paying Watkins (foolishly, of course) and will try to feed him.
When they get in the huddle do you think Mahomes says "Hill, I know you have been open all game, but Watkins makes the most so I am going to throw to him this play"?
Id take Hill but not by a mile, more like a half mile.
Diggs >>> Thielen is one that could use some unpacking. Most folks have them fairly close.
I regret using multiple greater than signs.
Yeah, I knew using multiple greater than signs was a bad idea.
Swap Thielen & Diggs & I agree. Probably Hilton last until I see Luck throw more than 20 yards, too.
That's fair enough, but for me I'm not drafting any of those other names, even though they have similar value. For me it's Hill or a RB there. Probably Drake or Henry. Cooper is a possibility as well. Tonight I did an MFL 10 where McKinnon fell to the late 3rd and I'd consider him there, too.
This was my thinking when I took Hill and Hilton at the 3/4 turn double picks.
Re: Diggs vs Thielen. I honestly think this is because nobody knows which one is the 1 and which is the 2. Same reason why Carson and Penny are being ranked right next to each other. Everyone is hedging by saying “they’re pretty equal right now” when they really mean “they’re both good but I have no clue which will be better”. I went with hilton just because of that uncertainty, and because with a healthy Luck, we’ve seen Hilton lead the league in rec yards before
Not me. I think it’s pretty clear - Diggs should be putting up WR1 numbers. When healthy he’s done so and clearly outperformed Thielen. But he’s had some groin & hammy issues through his career that have limited him.
If OBJ gets injured his Tyreek pick might look good. Still an awful decision to bet on an injury but it can work out occasionally.
Not betting on an injury, but feel he won’t have the target share he has had in years past, has a noodle armed QB, maybe have a running game that can score a td.
