12-Team League- 3rd Pick: Who Do I Take?! - BFritz21 - 08-15-2025
I know it depends on who's taken before me, but let's assume that the first two go Ja'Marr and then Bijan, do I take Justin Jefferson or Saquon?
Chase is definitely going first in our league, so if the second pick is Saquon, do I take Bijan or Jefferson?
If it's Jefferson, do I take Saquon or BIjan?
I was sold on Jefferson but now I'm second-guessing myself, so do I take Barkley?
Start QB, two RBS, two WRs, one TE, DEF, and then flex of WR/RB/TE.
Will Barkley's big year last season mean that he'll flop this season?
I got hit by a truck a month ago so I need help because I'm not thinking clearly!

I would be cautious of taking Barkley because of how many touches he had last season.
I would take Jefferson or Gibbs from Detroit.

Stay away from St, Brown in Detroit.

That was my only fear with taking Barkley.
I was leaning towards taking Jefferson but FantasyPros has Gibbs and Jefferson both in the top tier of players, with D Henry being the only other back in the next tier, which he wouldn't make it back to me, and then I don't think there's another back I like until the third tier.
Will Jefferson score enough points to make waiting on taking a back (skipping Gibbs) worth it?

You'll be fine either way; you should be able to get a good pick at 21 either way.

But I might not be able to get a good running back that will put up consistent points.
I'm in such a pickle!
