About to make first pick in Dynasty League draft--need advice
Posted on 8/8/15 at 9:41 pm
Posted on 8/8/15 at 9:41 pm
My options in the order of what I perceive as need:
1. QB
My QBs are Newton and Foles. I have no confidence in either one. Top choices on the board are Cutler, Bridgewater, Bradford and Mariota. My gut tells me Bradford's the best guy if healthy because I probably need a starter THIS year.
2. RB
I have Lacy, Hyde, Vereen and Ivory. Still on the board that are of interest: Joique Bell, Tevin Coleman, and Randle/McFadden. I want Coleman, but I don't really NEED him like I need a quarterback
3. WR
I have DT88, Jordy and Jordan Matthews. Whomever I pick will likely never play this year. But Aghalor, Perriman and Kevin White have not been drafted yet.
Any opinions. I feel like I need Bradford short-term but I don't want to waste a pick on him when so many potential future stars are available.

Sam Bradford blows. If you're dead set on a QB, I'd rather roll the dice on Bridgewater.

Nick Foles blows too but he was a top-ten fantasy QB for a calendar year under Chip Kelly until he got hurt.

I think you're fine with Cam. Bradford isn't really an upgrade IMO. If anything they'll finish equal on a solid year from Bradford.
Since it's dynasty and you're rock solid at WR, I would go Coleman. You can never have too many future RBs.

But it's a dynasty. You know what you have with Bradford, an injury prone, underachiever. Just me, but I don't like the Eagles offense like in past years. Plus, I can't stand Bradford. Atleast with Bridewater you have potential.

I hear you. Cam Newton just scares me because their offense is so...average. But I guess 170 yards passing + 1 TD + 50 yards rushing + rushing TD = 300 passing yards + 2 TDs

Do not reach on a QB. Take Coleman or White.

Newton is better than any of the choices you have. He isn't a bad fantasy qb. I don't know why he makes you so nervous. He's average to above average at worst.
Rb is much more of a concern for you imo.

I'd take Newton and possibly even Foles over all the QBs you listed.
This decision is really only between Coleman and Agholor, maybe White. Since you already have Matthews and your WRs are pretty set I wouldn't take Agholor. Leaving the decision to Coleman or White. I'm going Coleman, especially with your current team construction.

I think you're fine at qb. Rb options are limited. Crap shoot with the cowboys backfield and Colman will split carries. Take one of the rookie wrs. Kevin White would be my first choice. Sucks he has to compete for catches though.

One more pick before I'm up. Mariota was just taken.
So I have either Coleman or one of the WRs for sure.
I appreciate all of your advice. Thanks for talking me off the ledge.

Follow-up question:
If Coleman goes with the next pick (this guys RBs are shite), where would you go next?
Joique Bell
Gio Bernard
Jonas Gray
Reggie Bush (already have Hyde)
Cowboys RB (which one?)
David Johnson
Gordon, Gurley and Yeldon are already off the board.

Bell is pegged as the starter, but Abdullah will eventually come in. Dynasty wise, he's not a bad choice
Bush is a role player
Gio will be a change of pace guy
Just have to get lucky with which cowboys rb you pick
David Johnson has some work to do

Abdullah(if he hasn't been taken)
Randle
In that order.
For RBs
If you think you want a WR I'd take Agholor or White before Randle tho.

It's my pick. White just went off the board. It looks like I'm going with Coleman, but I'm wondering about Abdullah for a second. If I still want Bradford, I can get him or take Cutler or Bridgewater in the second round (I think). Aghalor is intriguing too, and so is Perryman. I think that both of them will be gone next time I pick, but I have my eye on Cody Latimer there.

I agree with all above who said Newton is a better choice than Bradford. I'm not a Bradford hater, but Newton is a solid top-12 QB. Bradford has never been in the top 12 in anything NFL. Cam's stats were a little down last year, but it looks like he missed two games. (I can't remember why.)
