Hayden Hurst and Callaway at 2.09 and 2.10. That should cover all needs and have a bit of a risk for the future with Calloway.
Not sure I've seen calloway yet that early

Lol are my WR's that bad? I feel they're solid for the time being with AB, Jeffrey and JuJu on the way up, Matthews as backup.

I took Callaway at 2.10

He is and should be going in the 2nd rd

At 1.09 I could choose between R.Freeman, K.Johnson, C.Ridley, and C.Sutton. Since my league settings are ppr 1RB, 3WRs, 1RB/WR flex, and I am pretty well set for starters for this year, I took Sutton.

based on what? the high profile role of 5th best option on the browns?

yes, i dont feel anywhere near as positive about juju as everyone else, jeffery is an enigma...could get you 1400 or could get you 800 (last year without his TDs we would be calling him a bum, didnt even hit 800 yards and we talk about his WR1 status), and i have never thought about rishard Mathews as anything more than a weak flex play who i would only go to in a bind.

AB is a beast for sure so that elevates the group but ya i would def be looking to get another 2 WR i felt good about if i were you

I think your WR depth is worse. Id be targeting Moore to be honest unless someone ranked up high falls to you.

Full PPR, wouldn't be worried but in standard or .5, could see RBs going 1-8.

Ha ha. That sounds like me. Every year picking in the 9-12 range. Got lucky with Kamara @1.09 last year but I'm hurting at rb. I'm resigned to the fact that I won't get one but DJ Moore, Ridley, Kirk and Miller all look good at 1.10 this year. I may just draft Sutton and stick him in my taxi squad and hope he's a future WR1. We all want the shiny RB but drafting one of the top WRs is wise bet. However, a little voice inside my head wants me to take one of the top 2 LBs at the 1.10, but I'm trying not to listen. Ha ha.

Im in a similar spot. Have barely anything at RB and the 1.05 and 1.09

I'm hoping a QB or WR is taken before I'm up at 9

DJ Moore, Courtland Sutton and Calvin Ridley are all potential picks in the top 8. I would scope out the teams picking ahead of you and see where their roster desperation lays.

Am in a league with some friends and was sure the guy picking 3rd would take RoJo as he's a fever pitch Bucco's kind of guy. But I was shocked to learn he's leaning receiver.

Drafting for position instead of talent has bit me in the butt before, so I always draft talent above need in the first round. In the later rounds it can vary if I want to take a gamble on a dude I feel good about.

I guess it all comes down to how you rank these guys personally. We all pretty much have our own idea about things, so there's no guarentee 8 rbs fall off the board before you. Truly, it would seem out of place to me if it happened that way. I'm not saying there arent 8 really good RBs to be had, but the trio of WR dudes I first mentioned are all more than worthy of the 1.6. Or in my possible league case, the 1.3.

Yeah, kinda. Great alpha WR, decent other starters, but crappy depth behind the first 4or 5, and no pipeline of youth, especially considering their typically slow development, and account for failure rate.

For a typical start 1 RB league with a couple flexes, you look fine there. But, you've gotta start 2, which puts alotta stress on contenders. You need McKinnon to hit and better depth.
