For simplicity we’ll say full PPR and QBs aren’t valued enough to warrant first round selection unless you predict some record breaking season.
I always find it interesting how much the first round changes each year, especially the favorite for first overall. Guys like AJ Brown and Lamb, and have likely moved into first round lock territory while someone like Bijan or Chubb have most likely fallen out of the first, where they went in many leagues.
So how do you think it looks as things sit right now? In no certain order my guess is:
CMC, Tyreek, JJ, Lamb, Brown, Chase, Ekeler, Diggs, Kelce, St. Brown.
After typing it out it’s not as different as I expected, but I’m curious to see what ya’ll think.
It’s going to be very WR heavy that’s for sure.
CMC
JJ
Hill
AJB
CeeDee
Amon Ra
Diggs
Chase
Etienne
Gibbs/Bijan
Breece ETN and Gibbs will be 1st/2nd rounders next year in ppr. Only RBs going above them CMC, Saquon, JT, maybe Bijan? Probably forgetting a RB or two but with the position volatility I think more get drafted early next year.
The fact so few have kamara is hilarious. I guess I’ll just keep profiting off him
CMC Tyreek JJ Chase AJB StBrown Lamb Diggs Etienne Taylor – CMC only bonafire RB1 FRP Etienne n Taylor will go at the end being few pickings of quality RB1s Barkley Gibbs Bijan Ekeler Hall Jacobs will be early round 2 picks, 0 RB really proved efficient this year so i think a lot of people lean into WR-WR-RB-QB-TE type of order
Tyreek at the 1.01
In particular order:
- JJ, 2. CMC, 3. Hill, 4. Chase, 5. Ekeler, 6. Bijan, 7. AJ Brown, 8. Diggs, 9. B. Hall, 10. Ceedee
Due to the difference in points differential between the RB1 and RB2 as compared to WR1 and WR2 so far, I feel like CMC will be the unanimous 1.01 next season. He’ll be followed closely by the WRs in Tyreek Hill, AJ Brown, JJ, Ceedee Lamb, Stefon Diggs, ARSB and potentially Keenan Allen coming off a career year. RBs taken in the top 10 would be guys that dominate the RB room in terms of carries with high carry volume such as Ekeler, ETN and potentially Josh Jacobs imo. Kelce is bound to fall out the first round due to the TE options not being a graveyard this year due to a decline in Kelce’s stats as well as notable and consistent performances from TEs around the league.
Never drafting chase ever again
Bro, any time I question Chase’s fantasy performance, I always get hit with the “don’t overthink it it’s Jamar Chase” or “you can’t bench a generational talent” or “just wait, he’ll be back” even though we’re already in the home run stretch of the fantasy season.
I feel like CMC could have his left arm amputated in the off season and he would still go in the first round. It’s really hard to imagine any scenario where he’s not a top three pick next season.
All I know is CMC & Tyreek will most likely go 1 & 2 in whichever order.
Tyreek Hill is 100% first overall. He is due to get injured.
