Draft Advice (1st ever post)

Postby altball24 » Sun May 21, 2017 11:41 pm

I have the 1.01 & 1.03 pick. I'm very much torn on the path I should take in regards to reloading my team. QB's are gobbled up in the first round in this league like I've never seen before (5 QB's went 1st round last year). So the question I'm contemplating is this... Should I take D. Watson or J. Mixon with the 1.03 pick. I'm leaning towards Mixon and will hope for P. Mahomes to fall to me at the 2.01. As you can see, I need RB's in a bad way and I could very much use a third QB to give that security blanket. With the 1.01 I am taking Leonard Fournette. I really like Corey Davis, but I can't envision myself drafting a WR and probably more importantly, a WR that is on the Titans team that I currently have 3 players on. So, looking at my team below, how would you attack the draft this year?

So you agree with Mixon over Corey Davis as well then?

What about trying​ to trade down from 1.01 to 1.02 or 1.04?

Definitely don't take one of these QBs that high.

If stuck with your current picks my top choices​ are Fournette and Davis

Fournette and Mixon. You are thin at RB but can start 3 so even when Henry becomes a starter you will be set.

I like Davis but Mixon is a better fit for your team, especially as not full pt PPR. As Fred said, next year is the year for QBs, this not a good year to reach on them. Also you are in good shape at the position now.

Thanks guys, I'm starting to feel a lot better about my draft strategy to date. Still a month away from our draft and as we all know, things can and will change by then.

Fournette and Mixon. If either or both hit at top 10 RB in year 1 you are a contender. You already have a very nice setup at QB.

Definitely pass on QB at 1.03. I can't believe 5 QBs went in the first last year, probably one of the worst incoming QB class I had seen in a long time. My pick would be Mixon, but if you like Davis, don't let the fact that you have other players from TEN keep you from drafting him.

First thing I'd do is put Jordy on the trade blocks. You still need help and by the time your ready to compete he will be done. I'd look to get a player and a late first for him from a contending team. Something like the 1.7/1.8 and a Kevin White type player. Other than that I think your abs are set I'd add best player available.

I tend to agree with this. I wouldn't automatically discount Davis just because you already own three Titans. Henry's an RB and shouldn't affect the decision one way or another, and already having Mariota for the potential stack actually adds to Davis's appeal, IMO. Matthews had a decent season last year, but ultimately, I think he's a JAG who will see a drop in production with Davis on board.

I would take Davis and whichever RB falls to you at 3. Also like the idea of trading Jordy for an upside player and a late 1st. Should be some solid RB options in the late 1st, especially if you expect people to reach on QBs.
