In my case, I doubt I would give up a Pick One to keep Barkley.  Not sure if I drafted Mahomes 2 or 3, I'll try to find where last years drafts are in system.  I would not Keep both and then struggle to get pass catchers.   I see Barkley going fast in mock drafts, but he was a mistake by me last year so early in draft, as was Deebo Samuel who 49ers didn't use as much as in 2021.   I was not going to Keep Mahomes either, but since I can't get a Jefferson or Chase type, maybe lock in my QB as Mahomes and build around that.  If it turns out I took him in 3 and only have to give up a 2,  even better.  I need to pull up last years draft, wherever that is. 

OK, Mahomes was a 3 so I would have to give up a 2, but not bad, I still get a Pick One.  I see the RB Wilson for 49ers and Dolphins last year was a pick 14, and maybe worth a pick 13.  He put up OK fantasy points, and only got traded because 49ers added McCaffrey in mid season. I might need a pick 13 RB, and Wilson at 13 as a Keeper not bad. He had big weeks at Miami in Fantasy Points for a Pick 13 Keeper...So maybe I Keep Mahomes in Round 2 and RB- Wilson in Round 13.  It gives me plenty of room to draft other needs besides a starting QB and a back up RB.  I could have a Round One, then Mahomes, then 3 to 12, then RB-Wilson, then rest of draft.  Not bad, and I put Barkley back in draft pool, and I get a Round One Pick.  Sounds like a plan.  Keep Mahomes and still have a Round One, and build a team around Mahomes as a Round 2 Keeper. Some weeks Wilson gave me more points than Barkley, not bad for a Round 13 Keeper as opposed to a Round 1 Keeper.

I have no problem with League Manager having ONE or TWO Keepers per team.   I think I can still build a better team than the sorry, stinking, lousy, record losing streak team that I put together last year.  I'm still on the record breaking losing streak until I get a Win in 2023.  Some of you guys goals are play-offs, but my first goal is to end one of longest losing streaks in this leagues history.  I had too many players pretty much take the whole season off, what a flop Renfro for Raiders was for me after so tough against Bengals in 2021.  Theilan of Vikings was a flop.  One of my biggest flops was Deebo Samuel, who I took in round 2.   No pass catchers ended up in no wins.

Yea not the end of the world, always liked fresh starts but can roll either way.

I'm pretty sure it was called Made You Cry, but not 100% sure. If someone can verify I'll give you the roster. 

Pretty sure you're right on that one.
