Looks like a very middling team that will undoubtedly have to hit on those 1 st you acquired…. I’d look to move Chubb as well for the right price….Tlaw and Chubb for Burrow or Kyler type of move

Seems like you have a ton of equity/total team value in this team, would be interested to see the trades for the futures, well done. Did you draft Chubb prior to getting all the future 1sts? Not a contender so I would look to shop him if you can. Ceh Edmonds and Mclaurin I’d move for the right price as well but no rush there, ceh might be better off waiting to see if he jumps in value. Ideally going that future heavy I personally want to come in last or close to it first season, these guys will prevent that.

If the league is active You rarely “have” to hit on 1sts when you acquire this many. Drafting all your firsts in a rebuild is a good way to make your rebuild take 4-5 years. Acquire all the future 1sts, trade most to a rebuilder (or if you get an orphan rebuilder that’s the gold mine) and compete.

This team is in an interesting spot out of the gate as you don't look like a contender. I like Mahomes and Lawrence moving forward and that could be a great pair to build around. I think Lawrence could make a jump this year and really help his stock and outlook. Your RB core is tricky with Chubb nearing the end of his top end value. I like having Williams to help build around long term but I would shop Chubb and Edmonds to see if there are any great returns that help long term. I would also shop McLaurin and Sutton to see what the options are league wide. Your team is not bad by any means but I think you could be middle of the pack so shopping to help more long term seems like a safe strategy. If the returns are not out there, hold and hope for the best and/or shop again in season. If Lawrence makes a jump, the great news is you have two big time/valuable starters at QB which is the hardest and most expensive position to lock up in SF.

I had already acquired 2 1sts at that time. Value was clearly with Chubb at that time for me (late 5th) so I just grabbed him.

Think my strategy is going to be to wait and see until August/September. I'll move Chubb and some of the other redrafty players at that time when their value increases if I get a good offer. Otherwise, I can see how my team does in the first month and pivot at that point.

Is “JaWilliams” Javonte or Jamaal? I wasn’t sure since you listed him as you last RB. I’m assuming Jamaal.

It’s kind a mixed start. I like you grabbing the 1sts but you also seemed to draft a little older with Chubb, Sutton, Godwin. What is you plan in terms of which year you plan to put the pedal down and compete?

I could see this team being pretty good if you can sell some of those picks for players mid season to fill holes or upgrade certain starters.

Otherwise, I’m probably looking to sell off some of the older guys already. Chubb/Sutton for Lamb/1st type of deals.
