Fantasy Impacts from changes with the Titans and Chargers
Posted on 8/20/18 at 6:32 pm
Posted on 8/20/18 at 6:32 pm
12 team league: QB, 2RB, 2WR, TE, Flex, DST, K
I have Pick 6. Snake draft order.
Last year I was able to get Keenan Allen in the middle of the draft. I took Allen as a potential high reward/relatively low risk given the draft position 7th round. Paid off for me big time as he was healthy really for the first full season of his career. My concern is Mike Williams being healthy and having a full camp and preseason. With the loss of Hunter Henry very possibly for the season, should I worry about Williams taking targets from Allen? I’m sure he won’t fall to the 7th round again, is Allen a round 2-3 receiver?
I’m high on the Titans in general this year. They’ve brought in Matt LeFleur from the Rams. With Mariota healthy I think this could really be a great combo and a much improved offense. I think LeFleur will create much better spacing for the Titans offense and Mariota has his best year, if he stays healthy. They also brought in Dion Lewis from the Pats in the off-season. I don’t feel confident in taking a WR from them, but I do like Mariota and Henry. My concern is Lewis’s impact in LeFleurs offense. Does his addition, presumably in the passing game and formation changes with LeFleur’s offense devalue Henry? I know I can’t get Mariota late in the draft, but where should I target Henry? Should I avoid Henry?
ETA: Scoring - 1 pt PPR, 6 pt QB TD, standard ESPN scoring otherwise

I think the titans will improve but they have a nasty early schedule. Perhaps let others draft titan players and when they haven’t delivered yet trade for them.
You can probably get Marcus way late in the draft and he is a good start week 1 but then you could probably stream better the next few weeks

Yeah Marcus I’m not worried about getting, I’m more concerned on whether or not to take Henry, and when if so.

Jacksonville takes a step back this year IMO. Probably won’t help much for the week 3 matchup, but round two later in the season will be easier than round one IMO. Tennessee, Indy, and Houston all improve on offense this season, barring injury again for both Watson and Luck.

Please consider posting your scoring in the future 
Keenan Allen is a top 5 PPR WR that could challenge for the top overall spot.
That said, I also like MIke Williams. No one is talking about him for some reason

Added scoring to OP.
Sorry about that. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’ll let someone else gamble on Marriota and the Titans. If they hit, good for them. I’m leaning towards good QBs that you can count on like Rivers

The Chargers took Williams with the 7th pick so you have to assume they will do what they can to get production out of him. That said it shouldn't affect Allen much at all. He's a beast.
Allen was the 6th WR off the board in our 12 team PPR. 18th pick overall. I got Williams in the 14th.

Agree on Rivers but I know I can stream Rivers in my league generally anytime I want. I used the Rivers/Allen combo for the last 2 weeks of the season and all the way to the championship game last year. If Mariota hits, I’ll have to fight for him on waivers vs Rivers likely fairly consistent fantasy performance who will generally be available to be at any time.

Thanks for the info. That’s exactly what I was looking for. Not sure what I’ll do yet since I’ve got the 6th pick and about half of the picks ahead of me are fairly unpredictable. My plan is to go RB first, but that could change based on the first 5 picks. The picks behind me are a bit more predictable so I’ll at least have an idea of what’s coming off the board before my next pick.
