I don't know what pick I have, but we have to declare our keepers by Friday. We get up to 2 keepers, but they are your first and second round picks. I am thinking I will take my chances and not keep anyone, but here are my options. Wanted to get other opinions.

AJ Brown
Rhamondre Stevenson
DJ Moore
Tee Higgins

What is the size and makeup of your league?

In 12 team PPR, AJ Brown is a borderline end of 1st, early 2nd turn pick. Depending on how the other owners use their keepers, he would be the only one I’d possibly consider.

Agree with this. If you keep only one, would that be a 1st or a 2nd round pick equivalent? If 1st, I wouldn't keep anybody. If 2nd, then AJ depending on league size.

Important to remember that other owners will be keeping the very best players themselves

Gonna guess at LEAST 8 of these guys get kept, maybe all of them

Chase
Jefferson
Kelce
Saquon
Ekeler
CMC
Henry
Chubb
Kupp
Diggs
Adams

If those 11 players all got kept, and you took AJ Brown in the 1st...how many guys are you mad about not being able to pick instead? 1 (Bijan)?

Agreed. The first thing I’ve done in the past in a league similar to OPs is to go through the rosters and take an educated guess at the keepers.

It’s possible a few teams could have 3+ worthy keepers, so you know they’ll have to release someone to the draft. Once you have an idea of who will be kept and who will be available, then you compare someone like AJ against them.

You’ll also get an idea of what teams may not keep anyone and could draft ahead of you.

Looks like I pick 9th, with the 3 teams behind me not having any strong keepers. The 8 in front of me have CMC, Diggs, Ekeler, Kupp, Chase, Barkley and Jefferson, so I am confident I will get the first pick of this remaining pool and 2 out of the 8

Bijan Robinson
Tony Pollard / CeeDee Lamb (not sure which one he will keep with second pick)
AJ Brown
Amon-Ra St. Brown
Jonathan Taylor
Najee Harris
Joe Mixon
Patrick Mahomes

I am thinking of declaring no keepers and I go for Bijan or Pollard with the first pick and hope Brown or St. Brown make it back to me.
