McKinnon and Collins are easily the biggest winners IMO, with Ajayi a close third I suppose (although I'll say again, it would have made NO sense for them to take a RB at 32)

I would imagine Keelan Cole should be on the screwed list. He was already on shaky ground when the team acquired Moncrief. With Chark being drafted, he's pretty buried. Westbrook, Lee, Moncrief & now Chark all seem pretty firmly ahead of him. Also, I guess Greene is out.

Melvin Gordon owners should be happy, another year and chargers still haven't drafted his competition that people keep claiming will happen. Anyone holding out hope for the Ravens TEs before the draft will be a bit worried as well, and I would think Bortles owners can sigh in relief as the jags didn't take a while in the first 3 rnds.

Dodged:
Miller/Foreman: No RB picked by Houston
Coleman: They picked his replacement. New team next year, hopefully greener pastures.
Crowell: Jets waited till 7th to add a RB
C Thompson: Wash picked Juice, so Thompson's role should stay more or less -the same. Slight reduction maybe.
J. Doctson: No WR drafted to challenge him.
J. Ross: Same

"Screwed":
Jeremy Hill: Not important enough to feel "screwed", but his value took a hit. NE picked a different type of back. That said, I was already planning to trade/cut Hill and don't see him being on my roster next year. This won't help me trade him...

Aaron Jones dodged a bullet... But he's still suffering from a potentially fatal shot called Jamaal Williams.

Got screwed with Hyde.
What did you trade him for?
Traded away Ajayi and Eifert and got Ertz, Yeldon, and 2019 2nd.
Wow, assuming for your sig team, very good deal.

It's good news for Nick Vannett, who slides into the lead TE role. Dissly is a blocking specialist and a rookie, so not much of a threat. Also, should be good news for the winner between Jaron Brown & Amara Darboh. Should be less two TE sets and there is not much competition at the position. One of them is likely to get close to starter level snaps.

Chark is there for special teams and as a developmental WR. I'm not even a big Cole fan but trust me - Cole is above Chark on the totem pole for targets.

While Mack may not be 'safe', the brass seems satisfied to give him his shot. Hines is more of a third down back, and Wilkins isn't so much of a 'here's your competition' guy as 'if you can't handle it maybe this guy can' guy.

Yes I'm biased though because I bought Mack in two leagues a month ago for 2nd rounders (2.07 and 2.09).

I mean, Mack was drafted with a late compensatory pick in the 4th, Hines was drafted in the middle of the 4th, and Wilkins was drafted in the late 5th. Wilkins has better vision than Mack and Hines is more athletic, so this looks more like an open competition than a vote of confidence for Mack. Either that or a really ugly RBBC.
