Re-drafting 2019

[JohnnyBoyRoss]

I would go a bit higher on Deebo personally, and Sanders is ahead of Jacobs slightly for me, dude battled through a time share and is still on pace to produce 1300+ yards from scrimmage.

Probably
Sanders
Jacobs
———-
AJB
Metcalf
Deebo
———
Nkeal
Hollywood
Singletary ( I’m going to try to sell high is Mike^^ tells me so lol)
Montgomery
Fant
Hock
Terry

I have love for Preston and Slayton too, own them in a couple of leagues, but I’m scared that the Giants Dolphins Redskins will all add competition in their WR room, that may hurt Slayton Preston and Terry.

It’s tough to be a top 5 or even top 10 fantasy rb seeing about 2 targets per week. I just can’t bank on Jacobs increasing his targets to 4 per game, where most top 10 RBs in ppr need at minimum, to be a rb1 in ppr. Jacobs has been the bellcow all year and saw 28 targets!!! Sanders has been “bellcow” for 7 weeks and has 35 targets in those 7 games. Singletary, since he started to get more work in wk 8, is seeing over 4 targets per game( I own 0 shares of Singletary fwiw). I can see both of them out scoring Jacobs in ppr in 2020.

It was Jacobs rookie year and he was dealing with a shoulder injury for half of it. You expect him to go out there and start having the ball chucked his way that many times per game? Gruden is going to realize, or already does realize that his offense needs to run through Jacobs and he will find ways to get him the ball even more next season. He had an outstanding rookie season, is a first round pick, and showed amazing toughness. There is no way Gruden doesnt utilize him even more next season. Add some WR help and Jacobs is going to be even better. Remember when CMC "couldnt run between the tackles and would only be a dump off option" remember that take? Thats what this take reminds me of. Way to hot.

This conversation seems to have shifted from how we would draft if would could all over again to Rankings. So im going with rankings, not drafting. If i were drafting Kyler would be lower.

My rankings would be

Jacobs
AJB

Sanders
DK

Deebo
Kyler (have to rank a rookie Qb who didnt absolutely stink highly in my opinion, the position is just so hard)
Mclaurin

Hollywood
Singletary
Fant
Hockenson
Harry

Preston
Mecole
Montgomery

This is just similar to discounting Zeke because he wasn't catching a ton of passes. Jacobs was a very good catcher of the football in college. Singletary had 4 drops on 10 targets his last year in college. Gruden has already expressed the idea that he needs to use him more in the passing game. To have Jacobs in a tier below Sanders is just plain wrong to me. The Eagles are using their RB's more in the passing game right now out of necessity, due to lack of WR's, and still have shown a tendency to a committee, when they have enough healthy backs. Jacobs has the 2nd highest grade of any RB next to Chubb, per PFF. I think the likelihood of Jacobs catching more passes is much higher than Sanders becoming a better runner than Jacobs. To redraft the class and have Jacobs in the 2nd tier makes little sense to me. Sanders has been a nice player. I can already see him becoming one of the most over drafted players in start ups next year, though.

Fair points. I personally would rather AJB and Sanders over Jacobs. Washington received 10 targets in the 2 games Jacobs missed. If Oakland uses Jacobs like that he will smash next year.

Lol, I'm the one that forgot, you have "Preston" right after Diontae.

Lol I edited him in with the most recent quote. I had also forgot him in my original reply

[lawilt]

Given what we know now, how would draft the 2019 rookies?

It looks like you have these guys arranged in your own tiered ranks. Is that on purpose?

It's truly amazing how good this draft class was. I owned the 1.01-1.04 in several leagues and I don't think I was able to trade away a single one of those picks for duplicates. If we redrafted today, I'm pretty sure the story would be different.

I'll give my top 12 in no order (I ended up grouping them in 2 groups):

AJ Brown
Josh Jacobs
Miles Sanders
Deebo Samuel
Terry McLaurin
Marquise Brown
DK Metcalf
Devin Singletary (sell high imo)
Noah Fant
Darius Slayton

Kyler Murray
David Montgomery

The first 10 are my top 10, the other 2 I struggled to add. I'm slowly trending towards the "QB matters" aspect of things, which is why he's there. Monty is fools gold atm for me. I don't trust him.

EDIT: I was always high on Fant, I was never high on Hock. I'm sure that's where a lot of people will disagree with me. I'm probably struggling with confirmation bias, but whatevs. I'm sticking to my guns.

Why are you selling Singletary? I thought you were pretty high on him in your rb report. What would you consider a sell high? Mid 1st? Multiple 1sts?

[thebeast]

Harry is going to surprise a lot of people, knocking him down the list due to injury is a mistake . There seems to be a lot of recency bias baked into some of these lists.
