Keeper Help. Brown or A Jones?

Postby Amishbeard » Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:22 am

5 keeper league for my office.

You get to keep the players in the round they were drafted. 15 round draft. start 1 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 Flex. 12 team. 0.5 ppr. I have the 12th pick in each round as I won and it is not snake.

In my opinion, these 4 are locks:

1. JuJu 15th
2. Kamara 11th
3. Conner 7th
4. Bell 4th
And I'm deciding between Antonio Brown in the 3rd and Aaron Jones in the 8th. Important that with 5 rounds of keepers, the third round looks more like the 6th or 7th with Corey Davis and Goodwin being drafted there last year. And the 8th looks like 12th with Alshon and Crowder being some non-keeper 8th rounders last year.

I figure I can get someone way better in the 3rd and keep Jones than keep Brown and get a crowder.

Rest of my roster of note is Aaron Rodgers -1st, Tevin 7th, Lamar Jackson 15th, Njoku 6th. Don't really see any of them overtaking the mentioned 6.

Running backs seem to always be scarce, but I can only start three each week. Could always trade one after the draft.

If you are keeping Kamara, Conner, and Bell, I think AB makes the most sense. No need to carry 4 RBs. I'd much rather start Juju/AB/Kamara/Conner/Bell than Juju/5th round caliber WR/Kamara/Conner/Bell and keep Jones on the bench.

I agree with this 100% Keep AB in the 3rd

Since you only have to start 2 wr, I'd rather go with the extra starting calibre rb on my bench for the late round pick.

I do like the argument of having the Smith-Brown duo at wr, but then I'd strongly consider dropping Bell instead and getting that 4th round pick.
