For SF i think I have it along the lines of:
Burrow / Tua
JT / CEH / Dobbins
Swift / Akers / Jeudy / Lamb
Herbert
Ruggs / Reagor / Jefferson
Higgins / Aiyuk / Mims / Pittman
Claypool / Shenault / Love

The same argument goes the other way, the Rams O-line isn't locked into being bad forever and O-lines can go from bad to good or good to bad pretty quickly. RBs produce a lot more value than WRs during the period of their rookie contracts on average, and come in near peak value and production which is not typically the case with WRs. The rankings on Lamb and Jeudy are in no way a knock on them, it's just a reflection of the strength of this class as a whole and the value of rookie RBs vs rookie WRs.Cowboysfan33 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 11:49 am First off, it’s always good to see different rankings because it can help you look at things differently, sometimes, with that being said, I think a lot of people are too high on Akers and way too low on J.Jeudy & C.Lamb. Akers, although talented, is going to a team with a really sub-par offensive line and he’ll still be in competition with D.Henderson for touches. I don’t know if people are forgetting these are dynasty rankings when evaluating Jeudy and especially Lamb. In Dallas, there’s 166 targets vacated when Cobb/Witten left, Jarwin will get some of those but Lamb is going to get plenty his rookie season and keep in mind, Gallup only has 2 years left on his rookie deal. As for Jeudy, much like Lamb in Dallas, is going to get favorable coverage, due to Sutton, Fant etc.
That’s a good point about the strength of the class, definitely agree on that point, in most years, Jeudy/Lamb would probably both be in the top 3. Personally, I’ve had pretty good luck with loading up with WRs on my dynasty teams but that can vary with people because of their league starting requirements, settings, etc. Maybe I’ll change my mind some on Akers, but right now, I have him below Jeudy/Lamb.bjd5211 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 12:13 pmThe same argument goes the other way, the Rams O-line isn't locked into being bad forever and O-lines can go from bad to good or good to bad pretty quickly.

I'm with you but just want to raise one counterpoint. How many of those above offenses were as prolific as the Chiefs? I think CEH fits what they want pretty well and should be a good fantasy RB. Not my 1.01, but he still gets a bump due to landing spot, regardless.the_lung wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 2:12 pm I’m still shaking my head at all the people with Clyde-Edwards-Helaire as your 1.01 pick, based almost entirely on landing spot alone. I think that many of these folks are new to dynasty fantasy football or have a poor memory. Here’s a list going back only just ten years of running backs who were drafted highly, around the same spot as CEH, and thought to be gifted into “primo landing spots” where there was very little competition for carries. Many of these backs weren’t thought of as elite talents or running back prospects before their respective NFL Drafts. How many of these panned out?
Do we need to go back another ten years?
