Seems like good keepers to me, all three would go higher than that and TE is at a premium this year.

I have my other draft coming up in a 12 team 0.5 PPR league and I drew the first pick. I traded back third and I know it doesn't seem like much, but waiting after the #1 pick to #24 is brutal seeing all the guys come off the board, so #3 to #21 seemed more appealing. Plus I don't see a clear top pick in this draft. I will be happy with any of CMac, Ekler, Jefferson or Chase tbh.

He's been excellent in fantasy, but I would have him more in the sixth pick and on in this league. Everyone makes a run on RBs early and this year there are very few feature RBs, with a deep WR position this year. So I am probably going RB, one of CMac or Ekeler should be there. I'm going to be tempted to take Chase as a Bengals fan though, not going to lie lol.

Ok folks... autodraft went decent... except RBs:
here's what I ended up with

QB: Watson, Cousins
RB: Walker, Taylor (!!!!), Kendre Miller
WR: DK, C Watson, Mike Williams, Wilson (keeper), Flowers, Mooney
TE: Kelce, Schultz
K: Tucker
DEF: 49ers, Chiefs.

12 team league, 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1 Flex, K, DEF setup
I haves since dropped the chefs for Gus Edwards....

now I have an offer...Flowers for K Herbert .... seems fair and seems like a no brainer for me... thoughts from my fantasy consigliere ?

I suppose it depends on how you view their #1 usage. First off, and I'm sure I've asked this before - I presume PPR or at least .5 PPR?

Zay will be (should be) #2 in targets for the Ravens. And I absolutely believe their coaching staff when they say they'll let Lamar air it out more. If (when) that ends up leading to offensive inefficiency because Lamar himself can be a inefficient passer sans ball action, does that mean they'll right the ship or continue attempting to air it out? If it's the former, then Zay takes a further backseat as the #2 target in a run-first Ravens offense. Which would make him around the #3-#4 target in any middle of the road passing team. So you have a two fold issue in that respect.

Where areas, at least with the Bears; they'll continue to be a run first team, which lends to Herbert's usage, and if the Oline along with Justin show marked improvement, then his touches should show an uptick in YPC with the improved passing. If not? At least you might be able to fall back on sheer volume of carries.

For me, I'd probably take that trade. Zay is about as boom or massively bust as you'll see this season.

Draft went well last night picking from the 1.01. I didn't intentionally ignore RB, but I probably overdrafted WR unnecessarily. I also punted TE. Thoughts?

QB - J Herbert
RB - J Gibbs
RB - K Herbert
WR - J Jefferson
WR - C Olave
WR - K Allen
Flex - C Kirk
TE - G Dulcich

LOVE.

Campbell is old school, and Gibbs is also a quality pass catcher. I genuinely think this kid is going to get a great amount of touches both ways.

WR - Mike Williams....that game hopefully is defense optional the way KC/DET should have been
RB - Raheem Mostert....play him while you can lol
RB - Brian Robinson.....I think the Cardinals REEEEEEEEEEALLY want that #1 pick
Flex - Dameon Pierce......this one is a toss up between Connor and Pierce. neither are exciting to me

I'm avoiding Aiyuk simply because of the Steelers D. I like him rest of season.

Forgot to post my team

Geno
BRob
Gibbs. Yes, I know, two rookie RBs
Ridley
Nico Collins. ALL the garbage time targets
Dotson. Might end up moving him and trying to find a more consistent WR3
Fruiermuth (spell check) he might be dead now?
Alex Mattison at my flex. Figured the Vikes RB1 was a solid late round pick.

Rolled with the Jags DEF

I'm up 109.90 to 79.30 and he has Josh Allen left.

I lost in all 3 leagues and my actual team got decimated by the Browns, not an ideal Sunday. Worst part was that I thought I had one fantasy league wrapped up because I was up by 51 points and all my opponent had left was the Dallas D/ST...they scored 58 points last night and that is how I lost. So many expletives this morning.

Side note - Has a D/ST ever scored more than 30-40 points? I didn't even think that was possible.
