So, my rookie draft starts in an hour. It’s a 12 team 2QB PPR start 10. I’m pretty solid at most positions. I have Herbert, TLaw, and Levis as my QBs. With where I’m picking, I’m probably going to have to choose between JJM, Bowers, and Ladd. Talent-wise predraft, I have Bowers ranked at the top of these three. Because of draft capital, landing spot and format, I think it should be JJM though. I love Ladd, but he should probably be at the bottom of these three, right? How would you rank them in this format?
Ladd has to be last. I'd lean JJM in part because of the start 10, no-TEP. That format diminishes the TE a bit.
Agree. Would snag JJM or trade back/out. In a 12tm, 2QB league… there are always a few teams thirsty for a QB. You grab him and would have 4 solid starting QBs on your roster. I see an amazing sell window in your future. Or you could be that annoying guy in your league that hoards QBs.

I’m also very skeptical of Levis so I may go this route.

You make a good point about the sell window on JJM. Could easily see him jump in value allowing folks to cash in. He might end up going higher but people can take profit and be happy about that.

Sounds like a good trade down opportunity.
Personally I'm taking Bowers

Maybe I’m just jaded from last years avalanche of QB injuries. But in my 2QB league (that is very trade happy), contenders got real desperate to stabilize their QB room mid-season. As a QB needy owner, I’m really hoping the influx of new blood will be an equalizer. But you know your league — nothing wrong with Ladd or Bowers, especially if they fill a starting hole. It’s so hard to rank JJM in best player available terms. BPA? Likely no. But best tradeable asset? In 2 QB, non-TE prem - I’m still saying yes.

Do we think that Nabers will be heavily targeted by Janiel Dones this year?

Did the combine nuke anyone's value more than Troy Franklin?
Well, the draft INCREASED his value. That's right, going on day 3 helped him. Because Sean Payton? I guess. That's according to Draft Sharks, at least. The same people that bring us so much joy on the MFL stat projections for the upcoming season, threads.
Franklin is at 10, in Superflex/TE premium.

Because he partners with Nix? I'm not buying. Someone else can take that bait along with Coleman. Let actual value fall to me.

I know everyone wants to knock this kid because he made a run on word, but honestly just seeing the joy and excitement on his face makes me actually want this guy on my team. I don't have any picks in the realm he'll go, but that's the type of guy I'd want over the arrogant douches these days.

Man, it's just a joke, lighten up with the soap box stuff.
People make jokes about all kinds of different accents, British, Irish, Scottish, Canadian (which I am, eh) etc etc.
Seriously, I am happy for the guy too. I meant no offense by posting it.
I actually agree, all jokes aside, with the humility and likeability.

100%. I admittedly laughed at it too the first time watching it. I understood maybe 3 words total. But rewatching it I just viewed it differently and wanted others to maybe see that side of it too.
Cheers mate.

For sure, and like I said, I actually agree with you. It's good to see the genuine joy, humility, and appreciation.
