I think this is the first time I have done it in 20+ years. I hate that spot.

Has to be Jonathon Taylor, correct?

First is the best. Get 2 more great players end of second early 3rd. Unless you have the ability to time travel, I don't see any other choice for number 1

Can you trade that pick?

Absolutely Taylor, you are fortunate..best back in nfl.. I'd go WR, WR after that.

I pulled first in 2 different 12 team leagues this year. Taylor is the answer in round 1. Rounds 2/3 will be best available hoping someone falls.

Looking at Keenan Allen, AJ Brown, mark andrews, Mike evans, javonte Williams, Fornette on the first turn. Should be able to get two of those and then fill out the roster as I go.

I got the 4th pick in another draft. Normally I go RB with first round. Jefferson is tempting tho.

Post subject:  Re: I'm Drafting 1st This Year

I would probably go with Chase in a PPR league. Taylor has been overused in his first couple of years. Either the Colts will pull back, or he'll break down.

Had Taylor last year

I've had an incredible run of picking the right RB 3 years in a row

Taylor
Cook
CMC

But I'm always hesitant to take the top RB from the year before because the workload and likelihood of injury

With all that said, I'd say Taylor has to be the pick at 1 but I could see McCaffrey having a better year

I'd prefer picking in the 3-4 range. Get Ekeler or McCaffrey and a top Receiver and TE with next 2 picks

I've got Pollard too, think he outrushes Zeke this year.. I think Zeke is washed up.

I'd take LaDainian Tomlinson.

Is there a Fantasy Football HOF? Somebody do that. I'll take 10%.

I have to pick up my boy from school downtown at 6:30. The draft is at 7. I already put in my pick of Taylor to the commish. I just hope to be in the draft room by my back to backs at the end of round 2.

Solid enough.

I think I have nice depth but not necessarily any stars outside of Taylor. I probably will have a very good weekly average but none of the those huge games.

Our league seems to be transitioning. We used to have a great draft, with lots of food and drinks. Everyone attended. Now we seem to split into pods of a few guys and entirely on line. Its still a decent get together in our group of a few guys. It just isn't the event it used to be and could almost just be everyone sitting at home. I think what kept everyone playing for these 20 or so years was the camaradarie. Now, we are down to 10 teams with another guy talking about leaving. Such is life.

Hit me up next year. I’d probably join.

Depends on the drink/snack quality.

Post subject:  Re: I'm Drafting 1st This Year

not a great start

Taylor was excellent

I will most likely be going 4 WR from now on with Thomas re emerging

Author:  veganfan21 [ Mon Sep 12, 2022 9:36 am ]
Post subject:  Re: I'm Drafting 1st This Year

I had the following on do not draft:

Ekeler
Henry
Cook
Mcaffery
Elliot

Any Rams RB
Ravens RB
Montgomery
Kittle
Stafford


So far so good...I think?

I'm about to be 0-2.

Ouch!

0-3

Brady and Taylor doing next to nothing

Some of us suggested you think outside the box.

Post subject:  Re: I'm Drafting 1st This Year

At end of year last year I had to choose a keeper between Burrow and Lamar for my QB. It seemed like a no brainer then that Burrow was the choice. But now of course Lamar has went off in these first 3 weeks. :x

I think Burrow will be fine. Not getting a contract is motivating LJ. The Ravens may be in the same position as the Yankees after this season.

Post subject:  Re: I'm Drafting 1st This Year

So far so good. Not getting the number 1 pick is always best for me. Got Kupp in one league and Chubb in the other with my first round picks.

The key is to find a QB later who can score - he helped me win two leagues last year and so far this year is making me look smart - Jalen Hurts.

That means his 5 point week is coming soon.

2-1 in both leagues..#1 points in both. Taylor is just getting warmed up..wish I had him.

Borrows line is atrocious. I dunno if he stays healthy. My Jamal Williams egg is about to hatch, knew Swift would go down early.

3-0 with Borrows leading the way. I picked up J.Goff from waivers as insurance. Mcaffery,Barkley,Chubbs killing it as my RB 1,2 and 3. Kelsey is my TE1, Waddle/St.Brown WR1/2 and A.J. Dillon/Bateman/E.Moore in my Flex.
