Want to see how he handles the SEC slate but he might be my guy from the QB slate
Like Willis but he is rather landing spot development
Howell can be a good QB in real life but he's not necessarily the type of guy I'm shooting for in fantasy

And I stand corrected - Monty was a 3rd Rd pick, not 2nd.

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
Same. I barely follow college at all. I'll do some amateur film review of top prospects (usually all round 1 players and some day 2 RB) once they declare and then I'll go through more thoroughly once the draft concludes.smbkrypt24 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 9:49 am nothing to add, but love this about this site. So many people with knowledge of players in mainstream media and beyond.
That said, I always notice some other players, especially at the big schools in future classes. Breece Hall being one and the 2 OSU WR in Olave and Wilson both stood out to me as well. Hall looked like a very good runner and is performing well so far it seems. He's got good cuts and some subtle burst. Does anyone else think he runs upright too much? I'm not saying he has to get low and welcome contact but this caught my attention and wanted to ask

More I look at it more I believe hate for the 2022 class is just from laziness because the top players don't go to the same top few schools

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
I remember last season about now thinking there would be 2 top RBs in 2021(Najee and Etienne) and 2-3 day 2 RBs. Pretty accurate. I sold my likely late 1sts where I had them and needed RB, and was happy with that decision.
Any guesses now how many day 2 and better RBs there are likely to be in 2022? Probably no 1st rounders, right?

Keep in mind though that some of these are are NOT RBs you want to be chasing for fantasy (think Darrynton Evans going to Tennessee or Lynn Bowden to the Raiders as the 11 RBs that went in 2020's first two days)
Spiller would be my fringe 1st/2nd rounder with Hall and Charbonnet as other 2nd rounders
Harder to say after that but I think Kyren Williams is in the late 2nd/3rd round range with another couple 3rd rounders likely to emerge (Kenneth Walker, Zonovan Knight, Jerrion Ealy are some candidates to keep an eye on)
Right now personally I like Spiller and Charbonnet a lot and am cool (think they're fine and properly rated but not going out of my way to target them) on Hall and Williams.
Some intriguing things about the others but I don't think their draft capital is as locked in as the others so hesitant to make clear judgements
Also need to wait to see Graham Barfield's yards created metric come out (I love the process and take it into account) as well as Lance Zeirlein's film grades (RB is a film based position and I am not a particularly good film scout--Zerilein's grades if you look years past have been damn good in identifying good RBs--including some that even the NFL missed like Jordan Howard)
Athletic testing for RBs is also pretty significant

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
Burks was always a top candidate for WR1 in this class. He was the WR1 in this class last year by guys like Ray Garvin. The class is still pretty weak.StripesOfKC wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 7:16 pm More I look at it more I believe hate for the 2022 class is just from laziness because the top players don't go to the same top few schools

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
Burks is not a Chase level prospect because he doesn’t have those kind of stats( he’s also not playing with Burrow). He is definitely a DK Metcalf- type prospect, raw true freak athlete. This reciever class is going to be really deep.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 2:06 amBurks was always a top candidate for WR1 in this class.

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
For me the big story of today is how Matt Corral looks against Alabama. He is really poised to be the number one pick in the draft this year if he continues on his trajectory. That’s a big if because he’s going to be playing a really tough schedule going forward.

Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
There's always value in a draft no matter how weak it looks on paper. This class doesn't look nearly as strong as the last few, but it's guaranteed that there will be at least a few hits.StripesOfKC wrote: ↑Fri Oct 01, 2021 7:16 pm More I look at it more I believe hate for the 2022 class is just from laziness because the top players don't go to the same top few schools

WR always seems like the default strength of classes these days, but this doesn't look like an elite group so far.
2023 seems to be the class to load up for.

Looks very similar to 2021 to me (ie not strong but not weak)

Drake London too
It's "weak" in the sense that the top guys don't go to the schools people want them to go to IMO
Re: Way Way Too Early 2022 Draft Thread
No interest in Spiller. Every time I watch him I wonder why people think that he’ll even be drafted in the first three rounds. Pretty much a poor mans David Montgomery.
