Which guy are you taking a round earlier than his ADP?

Postby hornybulls » Fri Jun 05, 2015 5:05 am

Everyone has guys that they're higher on than most. But is there anyone you're willing to take a full round earlier than their ADP? By that I mean, it's more than 50% likely they'll be there the next time you pick, but you can't trade down and can't risk missing out so take him with your earlier pick? I feel like this year it's more likely this will happen; the 2nd and 3rd rounds feel very murky and wide-ranging to me in terms of ranking.

For me it's Mike Davis. Even though the results weren't there in '14 I still liked his tape more than Cobb, David Johnson, Jones etc. and he had a good combine that relfected what he could produce in '13. I also think people may be underating his situation. Hyde didn't look anything special in '14, and if you believe in a guy's talent enough to draft him, then surely you have to believe that talent will win out over situation/competition eventually.

Do you have a guy that you're so high on that you just can't risk missing out on him by waiting until when he should be drafted?

If you are speaking about Start-up Draft or Rookie Draft, I prefer to take ALL of the guys which I'm high on one round earlier rather than take any of the players I don't like one round later than their ADP.
What's worth than pick a guy you don't like and don't trust simply because he should be gone given his ADP and disappointed you after that ?
I prefer to take my chance on a guy because I value him higher by my standard and possibly miss. I can only blame myself if I fail but I'm even happier if I win.

John Brown.If you look at May 2015 WR ADP, (not including the rookies) He's my next WR off the board after Edelman.

I took Langford at 2.2 in this rookie draft. I had 2.1 and grabbed Ameer there so I feel like I can afford to swing for the fences on 2.2. A lot of people think I'm crazy but I think he will be Forte's Heir "IF" Chicago does not draft another back next year. either way I'll ride him out and see where my gut takes me.
