Those who have drafted the last few days, what route did you take? I had Bell last year and dont want to make the same damn mistake with Zeke.

That's what I'm thinking, although my other 2 drafts (6th & 7th pick) I went Adams or Hopkins and was happy with how my teams turned out. I think I might just risk it and pick up Pollard later and see how it goes

That would be an ideal scenario, let's hope it happens in this one as well.

I played this year in one of my friends league. Didn’t really know anyone but him. I drafted Mahomes QB, Barkley & Fournette RBs, Amari Cooper & Antonio Brown WRs... I’ve got Cam and Melvin Gordon on my bench.... I think I’m gonna like playing with these guys

At #4 you should have Zeke or McCaffrey available. Take one of them

STG or BR or somewhere else

I think Zeke will be back. Zeke, Adams, Hopkins & MT13 are all good takes there. I’d rather be in 4th than 8th or 9th.

Somehow ended up with 4th in all 3 of my leagues. Went Zeke, Hopkins, and Adams to just mix things up. All 3 went combination of Kamara, Mcaffrey, and Saquon 1,2,3.

I played it safe and went with Hopkins. Got JuJu in the 2nd then LF7 in the 3rd and Carson in the 4th.

Won’t regret passing on the Zeke headache if Fournette has his comeback year.

Draft results (in draft order)
RB - Zeke Elliott
WR - JuJu Smith-Schuster
RB - Nick Chubb
RB - Aaron Jones
WR - Chris Godwin
WR - Calvin Ridley
TE - Hunter Henry
RB - Damien Williams
QB - Baker Mayfield
WR - Will Fuller
RB - Matt Breida
QB - Kyler Murray
WR - Dante Pettis
WR - Geronimo Allison
K - Harrison Butker
DEF - Ravens

Overall, I'm pretty happy with that lineup. WR could use a little work on the top end but I'm hoping Godwin breaks out like they're projecting him to. Went with a ton of youth, lots of potential for points though. I'll stream a TE for Henry's bye week. Someone got Pollard with the 1st pick in the 9th so my handcuff plan went out the window but in petty happy with the RB's since I got the 2 I wanted most (Chubb and Jones)

You got Chubb in the 3rd and Williams in the 8th? Im not a Williams believer, especially with McCoy coming over and Thompson being the best back on that roster, but man that’s a pretty big overreaction for him to fall that far. And zeke will be fine, Id be surprised if he misses more than two games. Fines are about to start getting real hefty

Falcons fan with the 3rd pick took Freeman before me in the 3rd round. Guy with 2nd pick went McCaffrey, Mixon, and Kennan Allen.
First pick went Saquon, Mahomes, Evans. Someone reached for Gurley in the 2nd. Conner and Bell were the only other backs taken before Chubb (besides the first 4 picks and DJ). I asked a few of them after the draft and they were uneasy about Hunt coming back later in the season and diminishing Chubb's value. I think they're crazy

I too am not completely sold on Williams, but I just couldn't pass up that value in the 8th. If anything, he may start strong and I can use him as trade bait early in the season to improve my WRs

I'm guessing this is a free league?
