Do I take Antonio Brown if he falls?  Most drafts have him going fifth (five team league), but is it a no-brainer if he drops?

Most likely, I'm looking at Barkley or Kamara in the first.  I'm thinking that I should go Kamara because he barely touched the ball the first three weeks of the season and still finished 3rd among running backs!  His production should only increase with Ingram being suspended for four games!

Kamara in the first?  



Second round, if Dalvin Cook falls, do I take him?  I'm worried because the Vikings have a new line coach.

Do I take Gronk if he's there?  With Edelman suspended and Lewis and Cooks gone, it should mean just more work for Gronk, but is that too early to take him?  

I would take a gamble on Mixon (because he won't make it to the third in a draft here in Cinci) , but our line scares me.  

If I go receiver, do I take Davante Adams?  As Green Bay's #1 receiver now and with Rodgers throwing him the ball, he's going to have a HUGE year.  Keenan Allen had a big year starting at around week 10 or 11, but do I count on that again?  Michael Thomas has apparently looked unstoppable in the offseason, but Brees is getting older, so do I risk that?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Quote:With Olympic-like speed and 2 years of strong production behind him, Hill’s a legit NFL playmaker. No question there.

But based on ADP, fantasy drafters are expecting a bit too much in year 3.
We expect Hill’s 11.27 yards per target mark from 2017 to regress, as it led all WRs with 80+ targets over the last 5 seasons. He tallied 7.4 as a rookie.
It’s tough to see a big jump in targets, too. Hill posted 7 per game last year, while the Chiefs added Sammy Watkins in free agency. Per Over the Cap, Watkins’ free agent deals pays him the 6th most guaranteed money of any WR league-wide.
The loss of hyper-accurate Alex Smith should also force a dip in Hill’s 72.3% catch rate. We haven’t hid our excitement for Patrick Mahomes. But his gun-slinger skill set runs counter to Smith’s reliable game.
That should produce more explosive plays — Hill just tallied 9 grabs of 40+ yards — but high-end weekly production is a tough ask.

Makes me have my doubts.

Also watching Preseason Mahomes seems to love him.

All that said you might actually be able to get him with your 3rd where you'll be picking depending on how the draft falls.

As for #6 if Brown falls I wouldn't hesitate unless Zeke, Bell, DJ, or Gurley somehow fall.

RB Value is too good in round 2 to pass on the top WR in round 1 if its BPA. You got guys like McCaffrey, Fournette, Gordon, J. Howard, D. Freeman all going in the 2nd/3rd. Then another couple good RBs like McCoy, Drake, and Ingram that are all going later.

Getting A. Brown / McCaffrey / J. Howard would be a killer start to the draft.

Also be careful with the Kamara hype just because Ingram is out, Sean Payton has already stated they wont increase his touches with Ingram out. Add on top of that his efficiency was record breaking last year so can he really sustain that level of efficiency? I actually think there is a chance he plays better with Ingram back to wear down the defenses anyway but thats just my opinion.

I'm hoping Hunt is there when it comes back around because he led the league in rushing yards as a rookie and was 8th in receiving yards.

If he's there, it's a gift from God.

A back and receiver from the same team usually is a bad idea, but I think that these two could be ok on my team.

Allen had a solid final five games last season, but only found the endzone once over that stretch, and it was in week 17, so do you really trust him?  

Plus, Rivers is 36, so same problem that Brees has getting older.

I think I'd rather have Michael Thomas.
