OTC in a 16 team start up!

[joeday]

I have pick 1.3 and am taking some time to decide which direction to go. 1.1 selected David Johnson and 1.2 selected Mike Evans. The starting lineups are 1QB, 2RBs, 2WRs, 1TE, 1K, 1D/ST...NO FLEX. It is a PPR league. I am going back and forth between Zeke and OBJ. Normally in a 12 team start up I would easily go OBJ, but with 16 teams and only starting 2 WRs (and no flex) I think the scarcity of RB leads me to take Zeke.

Your thoughts?

Just realized I posted this on the wrong place. Could one of the admins move me to team advice. Thanks!

Yup.

has to be Zeke my man

It's close. I'm having a hard time telling you to pass on OBJ and take Zeke, but that's probably the right move.

I think you answered your own question lol. I would go Zeke in this. RBs are king in all of my 16+ team leagues.

Yeah, I'm going with a QB here. I consider 16-team leagues more like a Superflex. And with shallower starting line-ups, the QB position becomes even more important.

This is nuts.. You're saying that Luck/Rodgers > OBJ/Zeke????
I agree being in a 16 teamer raises QBs values, but this is a bit out there for me!

I would take Zeke in this case but it is tough to pass up OBJ.

I agree. QBs are important but he could wait until even round two or three & get a top tier QB. I wouldn't pass on Zeke imo

[joeday]

my goal is to go Rodgers or Luck in the 2nd...but obviously depends who is there.

Slightly in favor of OBJ, wr career longer than rb

Though with the 3 year age difference I think that equals out.

It may be nuts, but, yeah, that's what I'm saying! Bam!

Clearly, in this situation, I would try to trade back to get value from the pick and the QB later.

I'd go ODB here personally. Think if you want a good indicator which way people are leaning you should put a poll up.
