ESPN Fantasy league question post draft
Posted on 8/31/18 at 1:29 pm
Posted on 8/31/18 at 1:29 pm
Just completed our fantasy draft last night.
10 team league. I had pick #8.
Standard scoring QB 4 pt TD no PPR.
Starting lineup includes
QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, Flex, Defense, Kicker
Ended up with
QB: Tom Brady
RB: Melvin Gordon, Jerick McKinnon, Alex Collins, Dion Lewis, Jamaal Williams, Marlon Mack
WR: Antonio Brown, Corey Davis, Will Fuller, Nelson Algholor, Donte Moncrief
TE: Zach Ertz, O.J. Howard
Kicker: Jake Elliot
Def: Jacksonville
Questions:
1. My thinking on going only one QB is I’ll never start any of the available guys over Brady so why burn a bench spot on them, would you drop anyone for a QB filler?
2. I’m not totally upset with my WR depth but would you drop Moncrief or anyone not named AB for any of the free agents OR trade AB for two solid #1’s of lesser value than AB?
3. I have a solid starter in Ertz, and a player with a high ceiling O.J. Howard behind him. Would you keep Howard or pick up one of the available TE’s due to OJ mainly being used to block and Tampa’s QB woes?
Noteable free agents:
QB P. Mahomes, M. Trubisky, C. Keenum, D. Carr, S. Bradford
WR A. Hurns, M. Wallace, R. Mathews, T. Lockett, P. Richardson, A. Miller, T. Benjamin, M. Williams, C. Sutton, C. Ridley, M. Bryant
TE: V. McDonald, B. Watson, A. Seferian-Jenkins, C. Clay, J. Cook, A. Hooper

Looks more like a 6 team league roster

I’ll take that as a compliment for a good draft...
my only worry is I didn’t realize we had 3 WR starting spots so I loaded up on the hot commodities (RB)

Definitely target Lockett and Mike Williams
Those two have enough upside to potentially slip into your third receiver spot down the line.
You can definitely always trade one of those running backs as well. You just might not get the wide receiver you were expecting. Value on wide receivers in these formats is much larger than rb

You'll be able to leverage Collins or Lewis for a solid WR3.

Think you go after then now or wait a week or two into season?
I like Lockett because of flashing ability and he just got $$$$ plus Mike Williams seems like he is gonna he a stud if he can stay healthy

Particularly want to move Lewis because I’m not crazy on having RB/WR combo in Tenn...

Yes. I would personally drop Moncrief and Howard for those two now.

Who were your 3-5rd picks

If I had to guess, McKinnon, Ertz & Brady.
ETA: Just saw 4 pt. passing TDs. I'm changing my guess to McKinnon, Ertz & Collins.

Here’s how the pics broke down through 10 rounds
1: AB
2: M. Gordon
3. Ertz (reached) bc A.cooper, J. Howard, K. Drake, and S. Diggs went behind me (I’d of loved Diggs, Howard or Drake there but out premium on #1 TE Gronk, Kelce, or Ertz)
4. McKinnon
5. Brady (Reach IMO but it’s still Brady)
6. Alex Collins
7. Corey Davis
8. Dion Lewis (love his upside, hate WR/RB duo on Offense that could struggle)
9. Agholor
10. J.Williams

you need some major help at WR. The Ertz & McKinnon pick really set you back.
unfortunately the FA WR's look weak, which is to be expected with 3 WR league.
take a full screen shot of what's available if you have that capability

TD on the phone won’t let me do that but the receivers I listed in the post above are pretty much it. Dropped OJ for Lockett and Moncrief for williams from Chargers

Should have drafted a wr instead of Brady
I picked cam in late 6 in one league and that was only because of the quick turn and then the long wait

find an owner who needs a RB and trade for a WR
