DeAndre Hopkins - 2nd round (pick 13 overall)
Devonta Freeman - 5th round
Tyreek Hill - 14th round
Alex Collins - 16th round

I was thinking Hopkins and Tyreek (1 stud, 1 value pick) but I played out the draft and the difference between Freeman (#20 overall) and Tyreek (#32 overall) was a bigger value drop off than anything I'll get in the 5th round.

I could have 3 Top 20 players (1st round pick, Hopkins, Freeman) or 3 Top 32 players (1st round pick, Hopkins, Tyreek) + a 5th round pick.

Pick 2. I feel like u need studs to win leagues. What u guys think?

Top 10 players have extra value in keeper leagues. Most people will keep their top 10 players, so if you drop Hopkins, someone else will probably get him before your 1st round pick, or you’ll have to pick him with your 1st round pick (as best available). So you gotta keep him. Then Freeman vs Hill is a tough choice, both offer great value. But to me a stud RB is worth it to keep for you

So Hopkins and Freeman

Consider posting your scoring in the future

You keep Freeman and hill and still have your first 4 picks to form a starting lineup.

Good insightful post. I ended up going Hopkins & Hill for the record. 1 stud and 1 value play. I'll also be able to keep Hill next year in the 11th rd whereas I wouldn't have been able to keep with Freeman which factored into my decision a little.

Based off of the other Keepers, it looks like I'll snag a Top 10 RB with my first round pick so I should be in good shape. Also, this is a .5 ppr.
