maybe not in that mock where RBs were being gobbled up, personally I would have grabbed one of those elite WRs on the board and snagged a similar RB at the turn.

Haven't been a big gordon fan, eventually his inefficiency has to catch up with him. Will ekeler eat into his receiving usage? Maybe he's more efficient with an improved OL though.

Gordon will be relevant as long as rivers is there I reckon

Best example of being a game of opportunity

I've always been higher than most on Gordon but yeah he's been extremely inefficient

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku has improved this spring and 'should be a dominant receiver in the red zone,' according to tight ends coach Greg Seamon.

San Francisco 49ers WR Pierre Garcon has been building chemistry with QB Jimmy Garoppolo, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. 'It's been a good process for them to get here, spend some time together,' Shanahan said.


Pierre with Jimmy could be really good

TE looks to be in slightly better shape than it was last season

Based on what J? Not disagreeing just trying to remember all the moves

Hard to get excited about Njoku given his situation

It does.

Not sure I have ever seen so much QB depth.

You can wait till round 11 and get an OK passer.

its still top heavy, but I think there's a few more guys out there that I'll be fine throwing out there on a given week and a few more that could pop. Like I said, slightly better shape than last year

By my count, there's your top 3, maybe 4 if you want to toss Engram in there. Then about another 6-10 guys we'll be capable weekly starters, and then 3-4 who could pop if things break their way.

I'm pretty blah about WR right now. Love Larry Fitz and all, but when I see him consistently ranked in the top 10....not great. There's depth but not seeing the potential in those mid-later round guys, they're all graded pretty appropriately.

Browns RBs coach Freddie Kitchens said the team will ride the "hot hand" in the backfield this season.

"All three of those guys -- Carlos Hyde, Duke Johnson, and Nick Chubb -- can run our running game." Tyrod Taylor recently praised Hyde's deceptive ability in the pass game, while Kitchens noted how "violent" Chubb is as a runner, something the offense desires at the position.... Hyde is expected to get the first crack at things, but Chubb is fully expected to challenge him at some point.

I'll throw this out there. Keep an eye on geronimo Allison this year. Could be sneaky productive and take over for Cobb. Should be a round 14 pick

Anybody touching Amari Cooper with a ten foot pole this year? Horrible season for his ADP last year. You could call it a bust.

Plus add 33 year old Jordy and blunt smoking Bryant.

Also, where do you put Crabtree, in terms of ADP, with Baltimore?

I still hate Baltimore’s offense. Anywhere. But I may just hate Copper even more.

Hell NO! And I have no idea why or how he is being drafted at his current ADP in leagues. I owned him last year and he killed my entire season single handedly. Took him in the middle of the 2nd last season, and he's not being drafted much further than that this season. I don't get it.

depends on where he's going really. Am I willing to spend a high round pick on him anymore? Nope.

Cooper will be great value . He’s young, he’ll fix his problems. He can be a top 10 WR

and this was said going into last season...

I'm still willing to draft him on his talent alone, but not in the top 3 rounds. But sure after that the value is there because of his potential.
