My top-12 rookie LBs for dynasty (no pass rushers, sorry) 2018 Rankings

[dawgs4life]

Yeah I like Burks as well... but hes off the board. I took Trequan at 4.09 and Burks went 4.11.... Really wanted burks but couldnt pass up Trequan at that spot. My LBs arent very deep but Ive got two studs so can wait on guys to develop.

Kwon
Keuchly
TJ Watt
Devondre Campbell
Jordan Hicks

You prefer Avery/Carter over Young/Jefferson? Im gonna add two LBs in the draft... gonna grab one in a few more picks

In order who I’d take.... and I added a few.
Fred Warner
Jefferson
Jerome Baker
Young
Leon Jacobs - I’m higher than most.
Skai Moore
Jose’s Jewel
Dion Shaun Hamilton
Carter
Avery
Kyzir White / Dorian ODaniel

I like Jerome Baker as well... just not sure where he fits with Raekwon and Kiko there.... another smaller but highly athletic guy... Warner is gone..as is Kyzir White... Leaning Jefferson/Young... I like Jefferson long term, almost no chance he starts this year though... which will help him. I think Young will beat out Peanut sooner than later. Not too familiar w Skai Moore in Indy or Jacobs in Jax but both have crowded LB groups... starting to like Carter more and more.

Gonna target Jefferson/Young on my next pick and can probably keep Carter on my watch list...

[Kkiddynamite]

Based on this thread and twitter etc have compiled my list of target LBs...

Jayon Brown
Malik Jefferson
Kenny Young
Genard Avery
Jermaine Carter

Was gonna target Kenny Young first but saw Jayon Brown is avail and like what Im seeing and reading about him. Thoughts on Brown with Evans there? Will he see enough snaps and be more than just a coverage LB?

I think those top 3 are all about even, so take your pick. I agree with your thought process on them.

No love for Skai Moore? I also love Leonard as a number 2. Ja'Whaun Bentley has a ton of upside and he will be wearing a green dot. He has performed better on the field (closing speed) than he did in combine/testing and he is much better in coverage than anyone thought. He has a nose for the ball. He will be a factor (my prediction)

Skai Moore will be starting before long and he will put up significant IDP numbers. I'd put him at 5-6 on that list. Oh, and he's undrafted

[Kkiddynamite]

I like Skai a lot and with Morrison gone and Walker banged up I think he takes the starting job and runs with it. Also like Bentley a lot... its been awhile since the Pats produced a top IDP scorer... but I like Bentleys potential

[lukkynumber13]

Remember, this list was right after the draft. Skai has since passed over Adams, Franklin, and Morrison (trade). He may still be behind Walker, as Walker is hurt.

But yes, Bentley & Moore have certainly impressed.

[Kkiddynamite]

If Walker cant get on the field I just dont see how he all of a sudden becomes the starter. Skai has looked good, and Walker has always been average at best to me and he cant ever stay healthy... I see Skai/Loenard as the future there at LB but thats just me. Another guy I like that some arent high on is Kenny Young... also look out for Kamu Gruger-Hill... think he wins the job and will be productive in that wide 5 under Scwartz.

Have you changed your rankings at all since preseason? Any guys you would add or remove from the list? Thoughts on Shaqueem Griffin as the KJ heir?

I have not sat down and redone my rankings, no.

I don’t see Griffin as a locked in starter going forward, although yes he will get a start or more this year.

[Kkiddynamite]

No biggie was just curious who had moved up/down or who might have made their way on the list and who gets booted off.

I think this might be KJs last year in Seattle so was curiois about Shaq... have mixed feelings on him tbh

The initial post of this thread is what put Darious Leonard on my radar. Thanks lukky!

You're welcome! If only he could face a RB who catches 10 passes per week, every week!

But seriously, I'm happy to see a few of my boys working out so far. Leonard, Warner, Kyzir White, and Kenny Young... Also, I really tried to warn people who expected LVE to produce right away.

Seconded. I got multiple copies of Leonard and Warner based on Lukky's postings. If he had a newsletter I would definitely subscribe.

I put Warner in my line-up week 2 but not Leonard, kept in Sean Lee instead.
