Njoku or rookie?

Postby gilberjj » Wed Apr 18, 2018 8:34 pm

Somehow Njoku is available in my league (free angency is closed until after the rookie draft). Should I grab him or a rookie TE at 2.7 (I also have 1.2 and 2.2)?

Definitely take him 2.02 if he's there, and if for some reason you don't and he's STILL available at 2.07 you absolutely grab him.

Kind of a weird question since you have no idea who will actually be available at that point (doubt he will be at 2.7).

Better than the TEs in the draft this year. Agree, take at 2.2 if available.

I would be exploring a trade up to the 1:8 range and take him there after the top tier rbs are off the board . I would rather have him than any wr in this class by a decent amount and any TE in this class by a mile.

If there at 2.02, take. I doubt he makes it past pick 6-7 though (4-5RBs and a WR). However, every league different, check your draft history to get a better idea.

Yes, take at 2.02. If he was on waivers in your league, I'm not sure trading up is needed.

Njoku definitely over a rookie. I wish I was in a league where he was free agent. I doubt he lasts to 2.02.
