Those are two good ones. However, I think Treadwell will be a bust

Treadwell's problem is that he has Bridgewater as a QB and Peterson as a RB. We won't be able to tell officially until Peterson is gone imo

I like sterling Shepard. He just makes plays.

I think the Giants offense will be able to support two WRs. I think Shepherd is the breakout WR and Boyd will be a serviceable WR3 in CIN. I'll be keeping an eye on WR Nelson Spruce, UDFA, on the Rams as well if he survives training camp/preseason.

Runningbacks... I think Kenneth Dixon will do well, but more of a 2nd/3rd year breakout on the Ravens.

If you are in a fantasy dynasty rookie draft, which two RBs do you pick?

-Dixon
-Booker
-Prosise
-Perkins
-Drake

I would draft Dixon for sure.

Booker, Drake, Perkins are in that middle clump.

Prosise is probably relegated to COP.

Booker could be a good pick, but CJ was playing hurt all year last year. I'd like to see their backfield play out. Hillman is (annoyingly) there as well.

Drake has a nice shot just cause Ajayi doesn't seem like the most sturdy guy plus can't catch the ball all that well from what I recall. If Foster signs, I would probably put Drake right above Prosise.

Perkins... Welcome to the abomination of the NYG backfield. They have such horrible luck at picking RBs, and they all just kind of plod into their own line. Perkins showed well in the PAC12 so I believe he has a decent shot of becoming the lead back. I would probably pick him just cause the other backs are so... Bad. Aside from a healthy (lol) Jennings.

Thanks for the replies. I was already leaning Booker and Dixon because I want two every down backs which I think those two have the best chance. Drake, Perkins and Prosise seem more of third down backs and it isn't PPR.
