2yr Keeper Options at 1.1

Postby Markdavis3033 » Thu Aug 26, 2021 5:20 am

I have the first pick in my 12 team PPR keeper league.

In this league, you’re allowed to keep 2 players for a maximum of 2 years before they’re thrown back into the draft.

This year I’m keeping Zeek and Ceedee Lamb

This league awards 6pts per passing TD

The best available for me at the 1.1 are:
Saquon Barkley
Patrick Mahomes
Antonio Gibson
Tyreek Hill

Players being KEPT in the league (therefore off the board) are:
Cook
Taylor
Cmc
Aaron Jones
Henry
Justin Jefferson
JK Dobbins
Kyler Murray
Nick Chubb
Calvin Ridley
Julio
Waller
AJ Brown
Ekeler
Diggs

I feel like RB is going to get thin by the time I have my 2nd pick…

At the same time, Barkley’s injury is terrifying to think of. Gibson offers a ton of upside this year with Rivera publicly stating that he wants to use him in the CMC role (not to mention the potential of that offense).

At the same time, it’s hard to pass up Mahomes as a keeper for 2 years (this is Zeke’s last year of keeper eligibility). What worries me about Mahomes are his lack of weapons. Anything happens to Hill or Kelce, and he could take a hit…

Could end up with value at QB on the way back as well…

Who should I take with that 1.1?

Good luck to everyone drafting this week!

Gibson would be the safest, I feel the same way about Barkley - note however that Barkley has the higher ceiling.

I’m not considering Mahomes at 1.1 in a 1 QB league. The safest by a mile is Hill, I’m not sure how at all Gibson is a safe player nor Barkley. Barkley coming off injury behind a terrible o line, Gibson consistently having work stolen from him by JD Mckissic. Hill is almost a lock for 15+ points a week in the best offense in the league. Unless this is a PPC league, Hill is, without question, the best & safest choice here.
