Pending build, JuJu is the long term piece to own. Pretty close over the next couple years for me.

Tough decision. I own both. I go for the RB especially a 3 down RB who led the AFC in rushing despite missing 2 games last year. With that said I don't like Cincy's OLine. What makes this interesting is that JuJu is a number 1 at 21 yrs old. Holy Cow, Batman. So depending on team needs is where I would go with this. JuJu may be perennial Pro Bowler for the next 10 yrs.
QB: Mayfield, Bridgewater, Fitzpatrick
RB:David Johnson, Mixon, Chubb, James Robinson, Mattison, K Vaughn
WR: AJG, K Allen, D Adams, JuJu, C Godwin, D Slayton, S Miller

Champions 2006 and 2018. Second a few times in between, again in 2019.

No PPR. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB,WR,TE) 1K 1 1 Def
Drop 7 ea yr. 20 player roster with up to 2 IR

I build dynasty teams around WRs due to longer longevity. So when its close like this I'll always favor the WR. Take JuJu

I take JuJu rather easily. Cincy is a borderline dumpster fire. RB longevity isn't that long. JuJu is a 21 year old stud. If he has another year like last year (hopefully a few more TDs) he will be in the dynasty WR1 overall discussion.
Dynasty League (25 man rosters + 2 IR, non-PPR scoring. QB/3RB/3WR/2TE/K/DB/LB/DL no flex)

QB (1): Herbert, Lawrence, Darnold
RB (3): N. Chubb, D. Henry, J. Taylor, JK Dobbins, Pollard, Singletary, L. Murray
WR (3): D. Hopkins, D. Adams, M. Evans, D.J. Moore, DJ Chark, B. Aiyuk, J. Smith-Schuster, R Bateman, E. Moore
TE (2): I. Smith Jr, H. Henry, Schultz, Tremble

K (1): M. Crosby

DB (1): J. Adams
LB (1): F. Warner
DL (1): D. Lawrence

That is a tough call as this is a standard league. I suppose it may depend on the rest of your roster and if you have a chance to win now. RB's like Mixon are monsters in standard.

Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 2Flex

QB - Hurts, Fields
RB - Barkley, D. Swift, A.J Dillion, J. Kelley, R. Penny, J Williams, A, McFarland, M. Mack

TE - Kittle, K Pitts, J. Smith, L. Thomas,


Team 2 - 12 Team PPR SF BB - 22 man roster
1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, 1 SF

QB - Watson, T Lance, M Jones, C Newton

In non-ppr (which it sounds like this is) you build around RBs, so for me this is Mixon easily.

I remember being in a non-ppr league and having all three of Fitz, Andre Johnson, and Megatron when they were the consensus top 3 dynasty WRs and my team was nothing more than middling. But every time I had good RBs it was instant championship.

WRs just aren't difference makers in standard.

I can understand taking Mixon in a standard league but I’d still go JuJu. I no longer play in standard scoring leagues though.

I think this being a standard league tilts it towards Mixon, although I would take juju in all other formats.

In standard league, and RB's are much more valuable than WR's. I can find WR as there are 3 per NFL team. RB that are 3 down backs, hmmm how many of those are there...answer: NOT THAT MANY!!! I go Mixon if you are competing for a ship. If rebuilding I go with JuJu and work on getting RB via draft.

Only RBs I'm taking over Juju are Barkley, Zeke, Kamara, CMC. Easy accept for me.
