Just traded for the #2 pick... what RB?

Postby norcalmill » Thu Aug 24, 2017 9:01 am

So i now am the proud owner of the #2 pick.
im assuming Founett will go #1.

but this is a PPR.

who is best for the long haul?
McCaffrey or Mixon. I guess Cook deserves some consideration but likely no.

And IF Fournett drops he is the no brainer choice??

i have a weekend to bank my head against the wall :wall:

If you do a search function, you can literally find 50-60 posts on this very topic. It's been discussed to death on the forum.

Pick the guy you like best. It's between CMC and Mixon. If Fournette drops, yes, take him.

Mixon vs McCafrey has been done to death

80% of this board prefers Mixon. 80% of the "Experts" prefer McCafrey. Go with who you trust more, or go with your gut

at 1.2, I personally feel Corey Davis is the guy to go with. Yes, if Fournette drops takes him. Goddard is very outspoken about Mixon > LF, but consensus is still Fournette top RB unless you are very scared of his foot injury he's nursing at the moment.

thanks. i have seen some of the talk on this but scrolled back 3-4 pages and didnt see anything. Im also leaning Mixon. The one thing that makes me like McCaffrey is the fact that out of all of these rookies i would put him at the lowest probability of getting suspended or into off the field trouble. no. not because he is white. But because his father and 1/2 way god father Elway and others around him are upstanding citizens. Nothing directly against Mixon but once you do something like that trouble never seems to be too far behind.

CMC> Cook> Mixon for me, but the margins are very thin.
Dynasty player since 2002.
I probably should have done something more productive with that time...

Davis is still the 1.02 imo, I don't know why people are passing on him lately. Unless you're really thin at RB I'd take him. To your question, if you're committed to taking a running back I'd go with Mixon.

I don't think you can go wrong with Fournette, Mixon, Davis, Cook, CMC. Depending who goes first this would be my order, they're all super close depends on how you veiw their placement.
12 team PPR – 30 roster spots - QB-2RB-2WR-TE-3Flex-No D or K

QB: C. Newton, P. Mahomes, A. Smith, M. Trubisky

WR: A. Cooper, S. Watkins, K. White, J. Ross, D. Funchess, K. Wright, P. Richardson, T. Austin, C. Conley, A. Stewart, K. Cole

Mixon, even if Fournette drops (assuming Mixon isn't taken 1st in that scenario).
