Standard. Snake. 10 team.
Players I'm guessing will be gone:
Chase
Jefferson
JT
Najee
Jevonte Williams
Swift

Dare I take Pitts at 8 then someone like Dobbins or Gibson at 13? Or should I do something else? I don't want to draft a running back early that's over 24-25 years old. FYI we are doing the draft this weekend, then a separate rookie draft (snake) after the NFL draft. I have the 2nd pick in that one...

In standard, non PPR or Te+ I’d definitely grab the best two running backs available. Personally I’d reach to make sure I get Mixon if none of the above mentioned aren’t available.

Smart man. I'm probably taking Pitts or CeeDee there.

If you take Mixon in the first round of a dynasty you deserve to suck

Just for grins, here is the hypothetical pre-draft top 24 rookie dynasty ranking from The Athletic.

Obviously, this list will shift around based on which team picks the player, but it is a good starting list to watch the draft with.

I pick 7th this year in a 14 team dynasty league...and the 7 spot seems to be where the biggest dropoff starts.

Round 1
1.01 — Breece Hall, RB Iowa State (RB1, R1)
1.02 — Garrett Wilson, WR Ohio State (WR2, R3)

1.04 — Kenneth Walker III, RB Michigan State (RB2, R5)
1.05 — Drake London, WR USC (WR3, R4)
1.06 — Jameson Williams, WR Alabama (WR4, R7)
1.07 — Chris Olave, WR Ohio State (WR5, R8)
1.08 — Isaiah Spiller, RB Texas A&M (RB3, R6)
1.09 — Jahan Dotson, WR Penn State (WR7, R10)
1.10 — George Pickens, WR Georgia (WR6, R9)
1.11 — James Cook, RB Georgia (RB7, R22)
1.12 — Christian Watson, WR North Dakota State (WR9, R12)

Round 2
