    Yeah, I honestly thought the RBs were a better value. I like to trade so I am confident I can upgrade.

    Love this draft. Perfect mix of upside and undervalued assets. A+.

    0.5 pt PPR, $200 auction budget. Which one do you keep, and why?

    C McCaffrey $33
    D Cook $43
    T Hill $11

    My thoughts--Cook has the highest ceiling but feels like more of an injury risk (at least early on in the season). McCaffrey has the highest floor and still a solid ceiling, but the dual-back risk with Anderson. And Hill just isn't as valuable, even with the $20 savings. Leaning slightly towards the order listed above, but hard to say.

    8 teams. Mostly casual with a few hard core owners.

    I agree that RB's are a better value as the talent/expectations dropped off pretty quick. But to me it drops off BEFORE Lesean McCoy. I think he's a HUGE risk between having a worse o-line, worse defense, 30 years old, and the situation with the robbery. I wouldn't touch Shady until the 5th round....and that's pushing it. I would think that at that slot a solid WR would've been there.

    But overall stocking up on RB's is typically a good strategy....I just don't think you'll be able to recoop that value

    If that's the case, then I would DEFINITELY take him. As you know you would be able to easily mitigate the risk by adding another stud in the 2nd round.

    Have the second pick in a non-pppr draft. How would you guys rank these four (my rank in brackets):

    Gurley [1]
    Bell [3]
    D Johnson [2]
    Elliot [4]

    Gurley [1A] - Younger focal point of high scoring offense
    Bell [1B] - missing more camp time, older, team knows/expects this is his last year, I fear injury
    D Johnson [3] - superstar talent that has become forgotten
    Elliot [4] - still is going to be good, but his o-line is falling apart piece by piece.

    RB: Ezekial Elliot
    RB: Devonta Freeman
    WR: Tyreek Hill
    WR: Josh Gordon
    WR: Will Fuller V
    TE: Austin Sefarian-Jenkins
    FLEX: Isiah Crowell
    DEF: PHI
    K: Robbie Gould

    I think its a pretty good team. But you obviously took Russell Wilson early to the detriment of your RB depth. I think your team is solid top to bottom, but those RB's scare me. Only because the Dolphins are expected to be absolute trash, and Ronald Jones can't get past Peyton Barber...another team who's expected to be pretty bad. Hopefully everyone stays healthy, and it doesn't become a problem, otherwise you probably might have to pair one of those WR's with someone and upgrade at Backup RB. But I still say overall pretty good.
