Rachaad White

[Space Cowboy]

Vaugh and RoJo were horrible prospects. White certainly isn't anything special but at the turn of round 2 who else are you really looking at? You could a lot worse.

[MacDaddy123]

Vaughn was an ok prospect who was catapulted up draft boards because... I can't even remember why people fell in love with him lol but it felt obvious to me that he was being overdrafted. Similar situation with Sermon and it looks like James Cook is that guy this year flying up boards. Although, Cook is a bit different than the other 2.

I still don't know what Vaughn has to do with Rachaad White though. Pretty much the only similarities are 3rd round capital to TB and that they transferred to a better school. I don't see the comp at all

I agree 100%, and that is how I feel about Rachaad White now, over-drafted.
Time will tell.

People are desperate to have more than two legit RB's in this draft class, but you can't just wish it into existence.
This feels like the 2019 RB Draft class to me.

I said it before but it's not like I'm taking White over a top tier WR. After the top 2 RB, and top 7-9 WR who else is there? Crazier things have happened and I like Whites talent. So around the 2nd round turn, why not? I'm seeing Cook and Robinson go higher and I don't like them as much

2019 has had more than 2 fantasy relevant RBs: Montgomery, Jacobs, Sanders, Singletary and Damien Harris.

If you drafted any of those guys in the early to mid 2nd round you've already gotten your positive ROI.

White's definitely more of an analytical prospect than a film guy which is why it was very important he got day 2 draft capital; If he fell to day 3 that would mean that the team that drafted him also saw him as the "backup/special teamer" the film community did.

He's going in the early to mid 2nd round.. in the same tier as WRs like Alec Pierce, John Metchie, and day 3 RBs Dameon Pierce, Isaiah Spiller, and Tyler Allegier.

Most of these day 2 RBs with receiving upside and size get drafted in the mid/late 1st like Alvin Kamara, Antonio Gibson.

I suspect his ADP is going to follow a similar path to the aforementioned RBs as we get further into the off-season and consensus values begin to crystallize with more data.

I know that my opinion is not popular, but I have Dameon Pierce and Isiaih Spiller at RB3/4, and White/Cook at RB5/6.

That means that I will have no shares of White and Cook, and I am fine living with that decision.

But that still puts them at an early 2nd and from what ive seen, those RB are going there or later, aside from Cook

I have had 2 drafts so far, and these backs went in this order: 12 team leagues.

Spiller - 1.06 and 2.06
Cook - 1.11 and 1.12
Pierce - 2.02 and 2.04
White - 2.05 and 2.10

I saw him go at 1.10 in a SF and thought that was egregious. This is someone who has no idea what value is. What a terrible pick.

I agree, and I am a Spiller fan, but no way I take him in the 1st round. Early 2nd I'm all over him.
Seeing him go at 1.06 shocked the whole league.
Then that same dude topped himself by picking Trey McBride at 1.08 (Non-TEP).

He's clearly the league rube. How much value can you throw away in 2 picks? He would be tough to beat in that scenario.

See if you can trade Kyren Williams and a 2nd to him for a 23 1st.

Why would you have Kyren Williams on your roster? Seriously, though. Brutal lack of awareness on general value of players.

He actually has a half decent team, about middle of the pack. I have tried making trades with him, but I have not had any luck yet.
His original draft was not that bad, and he made some decent trades. Trading Kamara for AJB + two 1st round picks, he also traded away Aiyuk for Elijah Moore + a 1st round pick.

Just a total shocker to see him go into the 2022 rookie draft and make those 2 picks.
Real head scratcher.

Good news for White.
