Same. i wish I had taken a RB in the first instead of ARSB. I only did a couple of mocks, but I always liked the RBs coming back in the 2nd better than the WRs...but not here.

That's exactly why I wanted to do this draft. Mocks can't be trusted.

And, let's be honest, this is probably everyone's least important team to them. That is unless you win it then it becomes the more important. Seems like people would be ready to take more chances in this league. I know I am.

I think ARSB was absolutely the right pick there. I was hoping to get him at 7. Your options would have been CMC or Taylor, each with certain questions. ARSB gave you a reliable PPR floor in this format.

However, I'll give ya this draft is hammering RBs more than expected. Through 4.11 we've seen 24 RBs come off the board compared to 16 WRs, 2 TEs, and 2 QBs. If you wanted a reliable RB2, waiting wasn't much of an option.

4.12 — Malik Nabers (WR, NYG)
5.01 — Quinshon Judkins (RB, CLE)

RBs are gonna be terrible by the time they get back so I’ll take the last reliable workhorse in the queue

Even if Nabers takes a few weeks to get back to full health there’s no way he should be sliding this far with his elite talent and Dart ready to take the next step by feeding his WR1

I was getting Bijan, Hampton and Kenneth Walker in several mock drafts from the 3 position.

I would have probably taken Cook over either.

Glad you did that because I was going to this round. With Skattebo, I would have been putting a lot of faith in the Giants' training/medical staff.

Terry McLaurin went next. Another great pick.

Let's get the upside RBs going early in this one. Give me Bhayshul Tuten.

Two of my Round 5 Targets!

I actually like the Tuten pick in the 5th. He's one of the few backs left with legitimate league-winning upside if he grabs the lead role. Several analysts have been targeting him in that range, and he's been coming off the board there in high-stakes expert drafts. The floor isn't as safe as some veterans, but the ceiling is much higher.

Ok, TreVeyon Henderson. I’ll be hoping for a couple Stevenson fumbles early. I love the upside, but hate having a low floor guy as my RB2.

I really wanted to build my team with RBs early and then go with guys like McConkey, Waddle, McLaurin, etc. IMO there are a LOT of good WRs in this range.

I did that last year. I wasn't doing it again this year.
