Draft Talk: Common Gets and Misses
Posted on 8/31/15 at 3:11 pm
Posted on 8/31/15 at 3:11 pm
Most FSBers have had a quite a few drafts under the belt.
I typically try and grab different guys with my first 2-3 rd picks, but always find myself having a few common players on my teams.
Guys I have on multiple teams:
QB- Matt Ryan- Must just be the price, I feel like he's in for a good year, and going very late.
RB- Joique Bell- I feel like a lot of people are buying the Abdullah hype or have just simply forget how reliable Joique has been over the years. Price tag is dirt cheap.
WR- Nelson Agholor- My bold prediction is he has the better year than Matthews. Also majority shareholder in Allen Robinson, inc.
TE- Greg Olsen- IMO, the entire Olsen/Bennett/Kelce teir has been a steal in every league. 2-3 rounds cheaper than Graham/Gronk and they offer you more
stability than any TE after them.
Guys I've wanted stock in, but couldn't nab them:
QB- Andrew Luck. Man, I wanted to own him somewhere. Just could never stomach paying the price.
WR- Jeremy Maclin- I'm
on how the Chiefs are force-feeding him the ball this preseason. He's in for a monster year and I have zero stock.
RB- Jeremy Hill- I believe he's a top 5 back, had ample chances to get him in a late 1st/early 2nd/$45ish dollar value, but never pull the trigger.
TE- My TEs are Olsen, Olsen, Bennett, Kelce, Kelce. So didn't miss out on any TEs I wanted to own.
Who you got?

I've drafted 3 teams so far and the only player I've got on more than one team is Gurley...
Wanted to get my hands on Landry, you can pencil him in for 85-90 grabs imo. Also like Agholor a lot, although not more than Mathews but haven't been able to nab him either. In the 2 snake drafts I was in I loaded up on WR early so when the Landrys and Agholors were being drafted I was scooping up RBs.

Guys I have on multiple teams
1) AJ Green- One injury plagued year and it seems like some have forgotten how good he is. I'm buying.
2) Danny Woodhead- He comes dirt cheap and looks like he's going to have a big role in that offense.
I had been avoiding him due to alex smith.....starting to looks like a poor decision

I've drafted 4 leagues. I like to keep a variety but so don't have many duplicates
2- CJ Anderson - value pick in both
2- Allen Robinson - mid round target
2- Josh Hill - lottery ticket, will line up as WR a ton
2- Ladarius Green - value in regards to talent vs rd
I've missed on Hill, Jordan Matthews, and Deandre Hopkins as three I like a ton but it didn't work out

In 4 leagues I've ended up with abdullah and yeldon in 3 of those drafts. Abdullah dropped to 85 adp in one of those drafts. I felt compelled to draft him there

AJ is another guy I wanted to own somewhere. It just didn't workout in my 2 auctions and my snakes I had a late pick.
Posted on 8/31/15 at 3:33 pm to Toula
My draft isn't until this Sunday so I couldn't tell you.
But I am keeping Jonathon Stewart for an 8th round pick.

Matt Stafford- late round backup who has 30TD upside
CJ spiller- PPR monster who slips to 3rd/4th
Brandon Lafell- 2nd year with brady, could become legit low WR1
Leonard Hankerson- #2 WR w/ great measurables, in heavy pass offense. Not sure why more people arent taking flier on him
missed
Sproles- trial run went OK last year, but i feel Kelly is going to find more ways to get him the ball in the passing game. very cheap
doug martin- trust the eyes. this guy looks back. will target in next 2 drafts coming up
AJ Green- wtf why is this guy slipping so far
andre johnson- most know my thoughts on him.

OP I love those picks at TE. I'm seeing Kelce/Olsen getting picked up in the 6th on mock drafts. Hope that stays the same this Thursday.
The guys I'm really high on are Cooks, Davante Adams, Doug Martin, Sam Bradford, and Ryan Tannehill.
If QBs aren't going crazy early, I'm waiting til the 10th Round

If all the top WRs are at full health, you still aren't taking Green over Brown, Dez, DT88, Julio, Beckham
Debate if you want to take him over Calvin and Cobb
I think it just speaks for the deep top end talent at WR more so than people "sleeping" on green

I have McCoy and Bennett in all 3 leagues. Golden Tate in two. Kept missing on hopkins.
Posted on 8/31/15 at 3:52 pm to 21JumpStreet
McCoy in 3? That's ballsy son.
I make sure to own a different RB1 in every league.

Yea it is... I've been trying to swap in 1 but can't seem too. Regulars league was an early draft and reached a bit but others we're decent value IMO. $35 and then a late 2nd to pair with Charles in another league so he's my RB2 in that one.

Multiple Teams:
QB - Matt Ryan - Weird cause I hate that fgt IRL
RB - Forsett - Will be a stud again and you can get him in the 3rd or even 4th
WR - Kendall Wright - This is more of a depth thing, but he's a bargain in the later rounds.
TE - Julius Thomas - Yeah, already regretting this one.
Wanted but didn't get:
QB - I like Russ Wilson this year but not at his price.
RB - Peterson is another guy I like but haven't had the chance to get him / did not want to pull the trigger that early.
WR - Really like Jarvis this year but so does every other LSU fan.
TE - Kelce will be a stud but you'll have to reach to get him.

Only drafted 2 teams, John Brown, Brandon Lafell and Jason Witten are the 3 guys on both teams... meh on Witten and Lafell(solid, low ceiling guys), but think John Brown could bust loose with a healthy Palmer
Wanted Hill and AJ Green but their prices in the auction got a little too high for my budget at the time. Thought I may be able to get Lat Murray for a $20 price range, but CE's shitty RB2 fetish ended that hope fairly quickly
