I think this is low risk and VERY HIGH reward.
2. Jordan Howard- I'm second-guessing drafting him now because the Bears lost Jeffrey and their QB play is terrible. Howard could be good, though.
3. TY Hilton- Luck's injured. Stupid pick. Should have taken Jeffrey, who's having the best offseason of his career. Should have taken Baldwin.
4. Tyreek Hill- playing great and outplaying his talent. Great value and great sleeper.
5. Joe Mixon- our line worried me but his running style and abilities cured my fears. He's patient but then explodes through the line. Hoping we don't give his goal line carries to Hill, but let's hope he can score before that.
6. Julian Edelman- league is PPR so he'll put up solid points.
7. Martellus Bennet- tight ends are valuable in Green Bay, especially when it gets cold, and Rogers is getting older so he should use the TE even more.
8. Peterson- I've seen him with fourth-round value, so this was a steal. Who knows if he has anything left, but this could be a great pick.
9. Winston- with Evans, Jackson, and Howard, I think he has a big year.
10. Decker- Titans #1 receiver and Mariota is a good red zone QB, so he could score some TDs.
11. Houston D- could be the top D.
12. Jordan Mathews- should be the #1 receiver in Buffalo. Getting a #1 this late is good value.
13. Gostkowski- Pats kickers always put up good numbers.
14. Cole Beasley- put up 75 passes for 833 yards and five touchdowns last season. Not bad value here.
15. Ross- if he can get on the field and keep healthy, he could do big things opposite AJ.
1. I go back and forth on whether I am going to take Evans or AJ. In my league I care most about I have the 7th pick. I think because of a bengals bias i lean towards AJ but Evans will have a great year too. I know you were worried about AJ because of our offensive line, but our offensive line wasn't great last year and look at the numbers he produced while he was healthy. And now we have added more weapons to alleviate the pressure opposing teams will put on AJ. I would even consider LeSean McCoy here if he is still available.
2. I would choose Gordon over Howard. I think the Chargers are going to have a great year, and with Rivers as QB, Gordon should be able to go off. With you beginning picks you want to KNOW that they are going to produce. You won't win your draft with the first 4ish picks, but you can definitely lose it.
3. Hilton isn't a bad pick because he gets a lot of looks and a lot of yards. I wish I knew when Luck would come back! If Luck is healthy, getting Hilton in the 3rd round is amazing. But if Luck is injured I would agree with you taking Baldwin or Landry.
4. I personally wouldn't take Hill here. I see that Pryor was still there, or if you really want to take someone from KC here I would "reach" for Kelce.
I don't feel like going through the entire draft. But like I previously said, you won't win your league from your first 4 picks, but you can definitely lose it. Don't reach for anyone in the first 4 rounds and only pick people you KNOW will produce. :andy:
