So I am off for 8 weeks in the summer and decided to do at least one way too early slow draft to get a feel for how things are going. Just one of the $35 leagues, they are low stress on me and I was able to win one last year. They only pay out the overall winner, the year before I lost in 2 finals so I got nothing. Anyway, I drew the 12th slot.
So the RB's I felt worthy of that high of a pick (12/13) all went ahead of me. The top RB's left were Mixon and Conner. I didn't want to invest in the Cincy offense and I am a little concerned that the Steelers will finally deploy a more balanced RB usage.
So if you aren't familiar with FFPC scoring it is PPR but TE's get 1.5 per reception.
Here is round 1 before my picks.
1. Barkley
2. Elliot
3. CMC
4. Kamar
5. DJ
6 Nuke
7. D Adams
8. Kelce
9. Lev Bell
10. Sony Michel (only rd 1 curveball)
11. Michael Thomas
So at 12/13 when I decided not to take the RB's my choices were. Julio, OBJ, JuJu, Ertz and T Hill (the news had just broken he was not going to be suspended). I locked into taking Julio as one of the picks. I decided against Ertz here and it came down to OBJ or JuJu for me. I decided to let the Steeler fan in me have one and took JuJu.
There are a glut of RB's at around 36 in ADP so I'll have a few choices or since the league is two flex spots I am not opposed to going WR/RB next. Kittle is the only TE I would take if he makes it and Mahomes is a QB I could at least consider but I am not sure I'd pull that trigger.
Anyway, I just figured I would talk out the draft feel free to leave any feedback.
