In that order? 1.06 is awfully high for Miller for my tastes, other picks are pretty good, would have to see how the rest of the draft played out though to say for sure.

No DJ Moore over some of those other WRs??? Would like to see how the whole draft played out cause this is wildly different from how all my drafts went.

If you picked Rojo at 5, one of Michel or Chubb should have been available at 1.06, so you missed on that pick for sure

I do like most of the players you drafted, but you probably could have traded down to get some of those players. I would say you reached on most of the picks but hey you got the players you wanted and I would say you did decent for your first rookie draft. I always draft best player available and never draft for need unless it's pretty close in ADP.

Gesicki @ 2.01 is entirely too early...especially in a 10 man league and especially if not TE premium...even if it is TE premium, way too early...

i feel like you drafted for "need" and passed on some talent...

I’m lost on who you took at 1.06 should have been any of the last 6 RBs. Not sure what your needs were but always draft on talent. I really don’t like these picks

I was high in miller and Kirk, don’t like DJ in car and not a Ridley fan.. I passed on Chubb, didn’t want anything to do with Cleveland’s backfield, which I’ll probably regret in the future.. figure rojo and freeman should be the starters. And I homered on geisicki, high on him in Gase’s off, and the team picking after me had three picks in a row and desperately needs a TE, so if I traded back to 2.5 I don’t think he would’ve been there

miller at 6 and gesicki at 11 are massive reaches in my opinion . I do like the rest of the draft well enough but those reaches really would lower the grade a bunch .

I think you did terrible.
Chubb over rojo easily.
Moore and Sutton over Miller.
Ridly and Miller over Kirk.

You let a lot of great potential drop to your competition. And I think it's because you are valuing next year more than your next 5 years.

Don't let all the comments like this get to you. NO ONE knows how good or bad these players will be. People telling you to take one player over another is just ridiculous. Just look back at the last 5 years of rookie drafts and all the busts. In 2014 if you took OBJ super early youd get ridiculed. People reaching for Hunt/Kamara/JuJu last year were most likely told the same thing.

That said, I don't think you did a good job at getting max value from the picks. You have all the ADP data and rankings available that pretty much tells you were players will be taken in these drafts. You should have been able to trade down a bit and pick up some additional assets while still getting your guys.

If you didn't like those players that's fine, but I guarantee someone in your league did. You should have traded those picks, or drafted those guys anyway and traded down the road. There is absolutely no reason Miller should be being taken at 6th overall, or ahead of DJ Moore.

I like the players you got, but not where you got them. A good rule of thumb for rookie drafts is to always draft for value and best player available, regardless of your needs. You can trade for need later, you just want to acquire the most valuable options while you can.
