Soon to be OTC. Startup Draft

[BucFanJKE]

I'm currently underway in my leagues superflex startup draft. I am currently on deck. Looking to see what people think of my options. If anyone can help me out, I would appreciate it. This will be the 6.01 in the startup draft.

League scoring: 0.5 ppr, (1ppr for TEs); 1 pt per first down rushing/recieving, 1 pt per three first downs passing. There are also some misc big game and big play bonuses.

I really had my heart set on Corey Davis but he went just now (2 picks before me). Here are what I believe to be the best available at each position.

QBs- Matt Ryan, Alex Smith, All Rookies
RBs- Kenyan Drake, Alex Collins, Jay Ajayi, Rookies other than Saquon, Guice and Chubb.
WRs- TY Hilton, Thielen, Alshon Jeffery, DT, Landry, Watkins, Funchess, all rookies
TE- All but Kelce, Ertz, Engram and Gronk.

I am exploring some trade back options but so far no dice. It looks like the best value is at receiver. As noted in my sig, I won't have another pick until the 10th round unless I find a trade back for this pick, or trade up later.

My team currently:

QB- Wentz, Mahomes, Dak
RB- DJ
WR- OBJ
TE- none

Thanks!

I may be in the minority, but without another pick until the 10th round and having to start 3RBs each week, I would take a RB...WRs run deep and you can piece that position together (seem to be the easiest to trade for as well)
I would take one of the rookie RBs: take your pick between Penny, Michel, RoJo, Freeman..
I am not a fan of Dak, if you can find an owner to trade a couple picks in this range for him, I would do that without hesitation..
that is the only pick I don't like, but you have a really good team...

just thinking: maybe you could trade dak and this pick and get 3 picks in the next several rounds...I wouldn't move back too far though
you really need a RB here, I wouldn't even consider another position with the 3RB starting requirement

Yeah, I get that. I just feel like it's a reach, but your not wrong. If I have to wait until 10 all the quality rookies are probably gone. I would lean Penny even though as a Bucs fan I want Rojo to be the best rb in the class lol.

I'm still trying to work out a trade with a buddy who hasn't even drafted a QB yet. I'll see if he bites. It would be a move back for a late 7th, late 9th and late 11th. I feel like I can get some quality rookies in that range if he goes for it.

These starting requirements are rough though. I may have bit off more than I can chew with my trade ups.

Take Guice or Watkins

[playa_hata]

I would for sure take michel or penny

[Rosenbluu]

Guice or RoJo for me

[Cowboysfan33]

I would take Penny or Rojo. I really like your team so far though.

The people suggesting guice didnt read your post im guessing...

Im in the minority for sure but i’d go Njoku, Thielen, or Ajayi.

How did you get Wentz, OBJ, and DJ in a startup superflex draft? Can you link the draft?

Who of those do you prefer? I am a Bucs fan so I am trying to be unbiased. Both will win their respective jobs and be good right away. Penny has the higher capitol, but I think Rojo has the benefit of more weapons to take some people out of the box.

I was leaning Penny, but part of me wants rojo since I will be watching all his games anyways.

I really like Penny and that’s who I’d go with but I realize that the Seahawks oline is still is a work in progress and so it’s a little risky. He’s going to get so much volume that he’s going to put up some good numbers even his rookie season.

Given your draft pick capital, I would try to trade down maybe.
