Tier break at 1.05

[SpartacusPTech]

I know I'm in the minority here, and I'm fine with that. But in the 1.05 discussion for me is Malachi Dupre. I'm glad everyone else is talking up all these other players like John Ross. Take Ross at 1.05 and you will be disappointed.

If Dupre declares, I'd bet that you could get him with a 3rd round pick. No need to waste 1.05.

He already declared last I heard. Exactly my point, everyone else is talking up these other players which is great. A talent like Dupre will fall to me. Dude can run routes, he runs on the outside, he goes and gets the ball at it's highest point, He's 6'3". He is exactly want you want as a WR1. Everyone will look at his stats and dismiss him, which is great. Can't wait to snag him late.

Just looked it up, you're right he is still undecided. Thought I heard he declared. Hopefully he does.

I like Perine a lot in non ppr

Courtland Sutton might be better than Corey Davis and Mike Williams.

There is no tier break at 1.05 if he declares.

He's the reason I'm trying to obtain another top 6 pick. Give myself a shot at McCaffrey or Sutton.

This has been one of my frustrations. I took over an orphan last May as a way to pass the time at the hospital, sold off all of my assets I thought would either suck or fall off in '16 (Cobb, Jones, Bortles, Diggs (whoops)) and then some other trades after the waiver dispersal rookie draft later (got Blount and dealt him for two 3rd rounders in August for instance, traded D. Adams for Lockett and a third, traded Ajayi and Coates for an '18 1st and a '17 4th the Friday night before Ajayi's first 200 yard game DOH!), but as the season wore on it became clear that the 4 '17 firsts I picked up in deals were likely to be late save for one which looked like it would land between 3rd and 6th. I got unlucky and lucky down the stretch with my picks belonging to title contenders ending up belonging to teams that lost in round 1 and the semi's (7th, 8th, and 10th overall), instead of to teams that made the title game as it appeared might happen, but the highest pick ended up falling at slot 1.5. That is a killer for me. Probably my two biggest difficulties are this team, with the 1.5, and in another league where I landed the 1.3 for a team where I am absolutely loaded at WR but stink at RB (Abdullah, Gio, Kelley, Riddick). So for now that orphan squad has gone from having nothing at all of quality beyond Dev Parker, DGB and Ajayi, to a team that has nothing at QB (I traded every QB I acquired of value as soon as they had value), has Prosise, Derrick Henry, Abdullah, and Kelley at RB, and Dev Parker, Tyler Lockett, Malcolm Mitchell, DGB and then speculative guys like Lee, Patterson, J. Gordon (picked up off waivers in case he ever comes back so I can flip him quick) at WR.

I go into the draft with picks 1.1, 1.5, 1.7, 1.8, 1.10, 2.1, 2.5-2.8, 2 '18 1sts, and 4 '18 2nds.

But I still look at that 1.5 with frustration. I know that unless somebody is an idiot, or drastic things happen at the combine and workout, there does appear to be a rather large tier drop between 1.4 and 1.5, and missing getting two of the top 4 is just rough. Still debating what to do about it, trade down from 1.1, try to package 1.5 and another 1st to move up. Not sure. Definitely want to expand my '18 picks after all the guys ended up going back to school but would like to come out of this draft with 2 legit WR's, another legit RB, and 2 speculative TE's with huge upside. Something like that

As for what I think of 1.5, for now I think it's between Sutton, Foreman, Smith-Schuster (I just put that there, I don't see him as a future stud), McCaffrey (entirely dependent upon where he lands and the attitude of the F.O./Staff about using him), and Ross.

Is there a tier break at 1.5? Probably. Did we say the same thing in 15'? I think so. Now only amari appears to be a sure thing and white hasnt stayed on the field. Both rbs have had a bad year and a good one we still don't know honestly. What I'm saying is with the elite level of talent that all these athletes hold i think it's good to have a lot of chances year to year

McAffrey is my next guy up. He can do so much for a team right out of the gate, even though he might not be a AP type bell cow. He can catch, pass protect, return punts and kicks, run inside and outside. He has the versatility to get a lot of touches without having to be a bell cow.

I see foreman as a guy who is going to need volume to be successful and there are not a lot of teams that want to give their backs 20 plus carries a game.

1.5 Christian
1.6 ju ju
1.7 John Ross.
1.8 Westbrook

Look I know the world loves Sutton but I have my doubts. David was productive out of conference against big 10 defenses. Sutton was feasting on big 12 defenses (do they have defense in the Big 12?)

[Worst Nightmare]

I do agree with Afro man that having more picks is good. I try to even get third and fourth rounders. Nothing wrong with a shot in the dark.

Courtland Sutton Tweeted that he will announce his decision tomorrow.

Seems like you wouldn't make a big deal about it unless you were leaving.

Aside from Sutton, anyone else we waiting on? They have until 1/16 I think.

Did the Big 12 expand and add SMU? I must've missed that

I would take McCaffrey or Juju with the 1.05
