10 team league - 1QB, 1RB, 1WR, 3 x WR/RB, 1 TE, 1 DST, 1 K. 3 keepers at Yahoo ADP - standard scoring.
Drafting 9th in serpentine draft I can keep Julio for my first and currently Doug Martin for a third which I like. Remaining choices are:
Gronk - 2nd rounder
CJ anderson - 4th rounder
Rawls - 4th rounder
Jeremy Hill - 7th rounder
Josh Gordon - currently 12th likely higher by the draft date
Looking at the projected keepers the projected players available if I keep the 2nd would be Lesean McCoy and some of the 2nd tier WR (Marshall, Allen etc). CJ's 50/50 to be there top of 4th and Rawls would likely be available.
any advice? safe options probably Gronk, but not much difference between him and McCoy in rankings. I like the Hill value in the 7th as I'm hopeful he'll rebound after soph slump
I think if I walked out of the draft with Julio, Gronk, and Doug Martin as my first three picks, I'd be pretty happy with that. I love Marshall and Allen, so I could see you keeping Jeremy Hill or Josh Gordon and then grabbing a nice WR2 for your roster with your second round pick, then value hunt at TE. I like Gordon for a 12th, but he's too risky to give up too much draft capital. Hill should be good value in the 7th.
If you can get Rawls or C.J. with a 4th anyway, I'd probably just leave them off your list, even though they aren't bad value.
While Hill and Gordon are tempting, I think I'd rather have Gronk for a late second. If you had a shot at someone like A.J. Green or Allen Robinson with that pick, I might feel differently, but late 2nd for Gronk gives you a nice trio to start with and I think that's the way I'd ultimately go.
Thanks Brandon, totally agree with the AJ/ARob as I'd take them in the second over Gronk, but he's not a bad consilation price in this case
