BBY Dream Team 2020

BBY Dream Team League enters year 12.  Moose has dominated winning back to back titles and has noq won the championship 4 times, double the next closest person.  Thank all of you for joining the draft this past Sunday.  I know times have been tough for everyone and there’s a lot of adversity out there.  Some have lost loved ones.  Some have gained loved ones.  I know in the past I’ve made jokes involving race, but I will not be doing so moving forward.  I’ll just stick to making fun of your fantasy teams.  I will tell you this though.  Being part of the Dream Team back at Best Buy with you guys was a model of teamwork.  Where it didn’t matter where you came from or what you looked like.  Just that you were slinging product, services, and accessories.  Simpler times indeed. 

  1. Mike Grote- Mike won the CMC lottery.  He was a cheat code last year, finishing with 443.2 fantasy points.  The number 2 running back finished with 313.6 points.  I’m fairly certain that was the widest margin of any #1 vs. #2 fantasy running back ever.  In the second Mike went with George Kittle, Saints Destroyer.  Many analysts have him projected over Travis Kelce in their rankings.  Most likely due to the fact that Kelce has been on top so long.  Eventually he’ll have to drop right?  Then Mike drafted David Johnson to start the 3rd round.  There was one running back I had ranked higher than David Johnson amongst who was left at this point and his name is James Conner.  This may be Mike’s Mixon moment, but we’ll see (Last year Mike drafted Mixon over Dalvin Cook).  DJ should get some volume, but lose some pass catching ability to Duke Johnson.  We know Bill O’Brien will force him the ball and take over the Carlos Hyde role from a year ago.  But I had him ranked a bit lower than the beast wideouts and Qb’s that were available at this turn.  At the 4/5 turn Mike got the AFC South abbreviation combo of AJ Brown and TY Hilton.  (While I was typing this draft grade I was holding Anna and she took a giant poop, so we know how she feels about Mike’s team).  I think Brown and Hilton will both be solid.  Good volume from both and makes you feel better about getting Rb2 at the 2/3 turn albeit the wrong one.  At the 6/7 turn you got Deebo Samuel and Kyler Murray.  I like the Deebo pick.  Reports out of camp say his foot isn’t as bad as say an Alshon Jeffrey or AJ Green foot issue.  Maybe because he is younger.  But he should be clearcut #1 for San Fran once fully healthy.   I didn’t like the Kyler pick as much.  Not that I don’t like Kyler this season, it’s just Dak Prescott will finish QB#3 or better this season.  Murray should be solid, but Dak was the correct pick.  Both Wilson and Dak (And my backup) will finish better than Kyler Murray this season.  You shored up some Rb depth at 8/9 with Jordan Howard and Latavius Murray.  If Kamara does wind up holding out you have a RB running behind the best line in football.  Breida will probably get more yards than Howard, but he’ll be decent as a flyer for touchdowns and a good depth piece in case Breida gets hurt again.  Rest of the draft was pretty standard.  Got D/ST, Kicker, few flyer wideouts.  Not bad. 

Draft Grade: B.  Couldn’t give A due to David Johnson and Kyler Murray picks over James Conner and Dak Prescott. 

  • Jen.  Jen gets the running back with tree trunks for legs.  Over Barkley’s last three weeks last season he averaged 33.1 fantasy points per game.  Which is why his ADP is 2 and not 3.  In the 2nd round Jen took DeAndre Hopkins.  Hopkins is one of many wideouts in Arizona and will have the least amount of repour with Kyler Murray.  He is also in the middle of a contract dispute, further muddying his draft value.  As much as I didn’t want him on my team, he is still a monster wideout and we’ll see what happens.  Loved DJ Moore pick in the 3rd.  I personally would have done Thielen over Moore, but Moore is solid.  Joe Brady running offense with Teddy Bridgewater throwing the ball.  Moore will be a consistent wideout for you.  Loved the Zach Ertz pick in Round 4.  Eagles are without Alshon Jeffrey and Jalen Reagor to open the season, Wentz will rely on Ertz early and often this season.  In the 5th Jen drafted Devin Singletary.  He’s the starter in Buffalo as of right now, but word is he did not have a good camp with many fumbling issues.  Looks to be more likely than not that Zach Moss will take over this backfield at some point.  Taking him over Swift, Gibson, Metcalf, Ridley, Locket, Chark is pretty rough.  In the 6th you took Deshaun Watson.  Should be a lot of fun to watch with Brandin Cooks, Will Fuller, Randall Cobb, and Kenny Stills catching passes from him.  I had Dak ranked over him, but Deshaun is a solid selection.  Then you paired him with Brandin Cooks.  Cooks, like Fuller, will be good while you have him.  I think one concussion and he’s done for the year.  He’s simply had too many of them.  But if he stays healthy, he’s been known to get 1000 yard seasons no matter where he plays.  In the 8 you took Darell Henderson.  He’s a little banged up, but we don’t know how the Rams backfield will shake out post-Gurley.  CeeDee Lamb in the 9th is fun.  I was so thankful the Falcons didn’t draft him.  Cowboys offense is pretty damn potent.  There will be weeks where Lamb tears it up.  Decent depth with Burrow and  Boston Scott in later rounds. 

Draft Grade: B-.  I think the team has some potential, but Singletary, Hopkins, Cooks scare me a bit as key core members of the team.  Would not be surprised if Boston Scott and CeeDee Lamb wind up in the starting lineup sooner rather than later.

  • Tommy.  ZEKE.  I thought Tommy might grab Derrick Henry here given his ties to the Tennessee Titans, but no, he went Chalk and got Zeke at 3.  Can’t blame him.  He is a high volume running back on a very good offense.  Solid pick.  In the second he went Kenny Golladay who wouldn’t be my first choice.  I had Thielen, Moore, and Juju ranked higher, but he was a top 5 wideout last year despite having some Qb named Blough throwing him the ball for half the season.  If Stafford could stay healthy, could be a great value.  In the 3rd he got Adam Theilen giving him a great Wr duo.  In 2018 you might remember Thielen’s 10 straight games of 100 yards.  Last year he was banged up.  Minus Stefon Diggs and he’ll be a target monster.  Would not be surprised if he finishes 2nd in targets right behind Adams.  At the 4/5 turn you went Kareem Hunt (was targeting him) and D’Andre Swift.  Solid picks in my opinion.  If Chubb goes down, Hunt could be a league winner.  He offers flex viability most weeks, which is the sweet spot.  Swift could take over Lions backfield and contribute right away.  He’ll have to fight off Kerryon Johnson and Adrian Peterson.  Speaking of Kerryon Johnson, that was Tommy’s 6th pick.  Getting Gronk in the 7th.  Now I had other tight ends ranked much higher than Gronk, but he’s fun.  And you want to watch players that are fun on your fantasy team.  I’m dropping you in your grade, but it’s fun.  Round 8 pick of Jamison Crowder was great value.  Tom Brady in the 9th.  Should be interesting to watch this little experiment.  Does Brady flash signs of Manning when he went to Denver with two stud wideouts and balled out?  OR does he show signs of Manning his last year in Denver when he was throwing ducks and was carried by their defense?  I think the former.  Wouldn’t that be something if Brady-Gronk combo outscored Brad’s Mahomes-Kelce combo?  Wouldn’t that be something.  I was baffled by the Vikings D/ST pick in the 12.  They are terrible.  They lost Griffin, corners are garbage.  I took Butker in the 12th, but at least he’s a top person in his position and not inevitably 20th+.  Tommy ended his draft drafting 2 more Quarterbacks.  Both of which who will be outscored by Tyrod Taylor who currently sits on waivers.  Idiot. 

Draft Grade: B-.  Team could be an F, but could be an A+.  Major offenses was Vikings D and taking 3 quarterbacks.

  • Brad.  Ah yes.  The 4th spot.  Top 3 Running Backs and then… good luck.  I chose Derrick Henry after doing an analysis on him, Kamara, and CEH.  Cook was not an option for me, I’ll explain at Kenny’s pick.  Kamara had the best offensive line of the 3, but one of the toughest schedules.  Add in the injuries from last year and a contract dispute and I moved him back.  Clyde is going to be a hell of a player this year and many to come.  Offensive line is even with Titans, but his schedule is much harder.  Which brought me to Henry.  Plays Jacksonville twice and they traded away everybody on their defense that was worth anything.  Reports from camp were Henry has been working on his pass catching ability.  If he is able to get 30+ catches and not regress too much in the touchdown department, Brad might make out okay with this pick.  In the 2nd I went with Travis Kelce.  Kelce has been #1 Tight End for like 3 or 4 years in a row.  I felt like the Tight End position was a lot deeper this year, but Kelce has been a model of consistency.  In the 3rd I should’ve taken James Conner, but I just couldn’t resist the Mahomes-Kelce connection.  There is only one Qb in the league that could potentially throw 60 touchdowns.  His name is Patrick Mahomes.  I think he’s going to get a few screen passes to CEH that he will get long touchdowns from.  In a deep Qb position, this too doesn’t have the allure of yesteryear, but we’ll see.  Especially considering Tyrod Taylor is available right now and you are all idiots.  4th Round Moose snagged his second wideout that shouldn’t have fallen to him in Allen Robinson.  I was very pleased to get Terry McLaurin with hopes to pair him up with TY Hilton.  Hilton got snagged by Mike, and Hunt who I liked got snagged by Tommy followed by Singletary and Swift, so I decided to get my Rb2 before my Wr2.  A decision that might cost me.  But I got Antonio Gibson.  Rookie, slated to start for the Washington Football Team, but I’m not sure whether it’s at running back or not.  He could play in the slot, running back, reverses, does returns.  It’ll be an  interesting experiment to say the least.  Panicking after Marquise Brown and Will Fuller went I took JK Dobbins, rookie from Baltimore.  Then the next few picks I picked highest ranked person available.  Gallup (#2 on Cowboys high octane offense), Edelman (Quietly Wr#10 last year), and James White (he’s not sexy, but if you need 9 fantasy points, he’ll get you exactly 9 fantasy points).  Loved DeSean Jackson in the 10th round.  In games against his former team he’s averaged 4.6 receptions, 98.8 yards, and 0.625 touchdowns.  Week 1- enter Washington, a former team.  Liked Darrel Williams in the 13th, but drafting a kicker in the 12th over Boston Scott is unforgiveable. 

Draft Grade: C.  Giving in to temptation lead him to start Rb-TE-Qb when I could’ve started Henry-Thielen-Conner.  Team might make the playoffs, but will be middle of the pack. 

  • Moose.  I’m so sick of watching this league do Moose favors in the draft.  It’s like you want him to Threepeat.  You want the pain of watching him win.  One person in particular is going to get reamed for Moose’s team.  But I’ll leave that for later.  Moose takes Kamara, which is fine.  I probably would’ve gone CEH in this position.  Another reason I didn’t draft Kamara:  Taysom Hill in at Qb.  Kamara and Ty Montgomery in the backfield.  Cook at Tight End, Emmanuel Sanders on one end, Mike Thomas on another.  Taysom throws it back to Sanders, who throws it to Ty Montgomery for a sick score.  I want to watch that play and enjoy it.  I don’t want to go “Fuck!  Give it to Kamara!”.  In the 2nd Moose is gifted with Julio Jones.  Julio should’ve gone before 4 players that went prior to him falling into Moose’s lap.  He’s still a beast and Atlanta will still throw a lot.  In the 3rd Moose gets Lamar Jackson back.  The other cheat code from a year ago who finished with 432.4 fantasy points where the #2 Qb finished with 363.3.  Not as big of a gap as RB, but still a great advantage.  Can the MVP repeat his success?  Why not?  Brad had two chances to prevent this from happening.  But here we are.  Lamar-Kamara-Julio to start.  In the 4th round he was gifted with Allen Robinson.  A-Rob, despite terrible Qb play, finished 11th last year.  And he somehow went after Kupp, Sutton, and Woods at wideout.  In the 5th Moose takes Cam Akers, thus finally ending his Darrell Henderson curse from a year ago.  But he didn’t learn his lesson from last year.  Rams rookie running backs struggle to pick up McVay’s system.  They’ll start with Brown as the starter and mix in Cam Akers.  But then Henderson will get healed up and be back.  I think he too panicked a little bit and wanted to secure his Rb2, taking Akers over Metcalf, Ridley, Lockett, and Chark.  This one might hurt him.  In the 6th he took Ronald Jones II, who will be useful for a couple games maybe.  Too many mouths to feed in that backfield, so this had to be more of a mental game versus Chase who took Fournette than actual faith in Rojo.  Moose got Darren Waller in the 7th, a decent tight end who finished #2 last year.  Then he took Zach Moss in the 8th round, a pick I wrote down prior to the draft.  I had Moss slated to be taken at pick 93.  But with Moose picking at 92 I wrote down Moose will most likely take.  He took a couple cardinals, couple wideouts and there we have it. 

Draft Grade: B+.  He’ll compete, but Rb2/Flex has left some to be desired.  

  • Kenny.  Dalvin Cook.  Dunh Dunh dunh…. It’s a trap!  Cook is in the middle of a contract dispute.  In addition, a physical therapist/fantasy analyst showed data earlier this summer about Cook’s specific shoulder injury.  Said without surgery chance or reinjury is about 30-40%.  Given the volume he’s anticipated I think it’s not a question of if Dalvin Cook gets hurt, but when.  Kenny took Tyreek Hill in the second, trying to recreate Brad’s top scoring team from a year ago.  Lightning in a bottle, but had some health concerns as well.  In the third Kenny took Todd Gurley, making sure he is able to take full advantage of the additional IR slot we all voted on.  I mean my God Kenny.  Taking Melvin Gordon in the 4th wasn’t as bad.  He should be used for goal line work and catch some passes on Denver.  Even with a split with Lindsay it wasn’t the worst pick.  Liked DK Metcalf in the 5th.  Good value there.  Round 6 you took Stefon Diggs.  Diggs finished 17th last year.  But not sure how he’ll adjust from Kirk Cousins to Josh Allen at Qb.  I love Allen, but because he can run and he’ll throw a touchdown now and then.  His down the field accuracy is terrible, which I’d imagine would be Diggs forte’.  John Brown will probably be more consistent.  In the 7th you took Matt Breida.  Some analysts love him.  Think he has a chip on his shoulder and the Breida-Howard tandem will do well for Miami.  Round 8 you went with Tyler Higbee.  If he is able to replicate how he finished last season look out.  He averaged 19.5 fantasy points per game in the last 5 games of the season.  Now that was with a bunch of injuries to other pass catchers and during a lost season.  But if he does… could be a great value pick.  Thought you got good value with Ruggs and Preston Williams.  I liked how you finished your draft. 

Draft Grade: B-.  Too many oft-injured players and too many players on new teams.  But has some pieces to work with and enough potential to compete. 

  • Joe!  You slut.  I drafted you in my division and you repay me by drafting a somewhat competent team!  CEH was a great pick in the first round.  Andy Reid’s new Brian Westbrook with Le’Veon’s elusiveness.  He’ll be a top 5 pick next year and you’ll enjoy the ride this season.  In the second round I thought Hill and Julio were better choices than Evans.  Just not sure how Brady is going to divvy up the rock in this new offense.  Plus he’s Lattimore’s bitch and should start week 1 with a terrible outing.  In the 3rd you got JuJu who I love for a bounce back season.  If Big Ben stays healthy, with that defense, this team will be title contenders.  For Rb2 you went Jonathan Taylor.  I like Taylor a lot and I think the Colts will run a lot.  But if has to stave off Marlon Mack on early downs and Nyheim Hines on 3rd downs.  You know how Rivers loves to check down.  (See Ekeler’s previous seasons).  If I was a GM, would I want to run my rookie rb into the ground or would I prefer to burn the tires on Marlon Mack knowing we won’t resign him after this year?  I think Mack will get a ton of work.  Ridley in the 5th round was a really good pick.  He was 27th last year, but don’t assume all Austin Hooper’s targets will just go to Hayden Hurst.  Ridley has a chance to take a step forward in Year 3.  AJ Green in the 6th.  Worth a flyer with Burrow throwing.  We’ll see if he actually gets healthy and plays.  You drafted a defense in Round 8.  I love the Steelers D/ST.  I think they could be nasty this year.  For this draft capital, they better be.  Couple flyers at Rb, Big Ben was great value in the 12th.  Ebron might be my favorite pick of yours.  Overall.  Solid job.

Draft Grade: A.  I don’t see a weakness.  Steeler’s stack provides great value.  You did really good Joe. 

  • Trey.  Before I get to these grades I just want to start out by saying I love you as a friend, colleague, and mentor.  You have a beautiful family and you’re a great leader who I respect and I want nothing but happiness for you and yours man.  I really mean that.  I truly hope you don’t take what comes next personally.  With all that being said, I think you absolutely bombed this draft.  I mean.  It’s like when I tried to cram in college for the Relationship Studies class final exam and I got a 52 on it.  I almost couldn’t graduate, I had to do extra credit and talk to my professor just to graduate in 4 years without having to do summer school.  Like… this is really bad.  Like on the office when Kevin brings in the big pot of chili and drops it all over the carpet and falls in it bad.  Josh Jacobs was a mid to low 2nd round pick in my opinion.  Gruden brought in 15 different 3rd down running backs in the offseason to clearly let the world know this dude will not be on the field on 3rd down.  Players I had ranked higher than Jacobs that you passed on and the order: Sanders, Mixon, Thomas, Adams, Ekeler, Hill, Julio, Drake, Chubb.  It’s almost like you passed on having a first round pick.  Then.  More egregious than the first round, in round 2 you selected Chris Carson.  He is coming off hip surgery, they signed Carlos Hyde who will get work, and much of the offseason has been swirling rumors about the Seahawks passing on early downs more.  They tried to get the hashtag #letrusscook going.  Players I would have drafted over Carson and the order: Hill, Julio, Kelce, Kittle, Thielen, James Connor, DJ Moore, Evans, Godwin, Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, JuJu, Odell and probably more.  I’m going to try and look at the rest of your draft with a fresh lens and pretend the first two picks didn’t happen.  Odell in the 3rd is good.  I think he has a much better season than last year.  Ingram is a good value pick in the 4th round.  Dobbins hasn’t earned anything yet.  It’s still Ingram’s backfield.  Tyler Boyd in the 5th was a little bit of a reach for me.  I liked Lockett , Chark, Brown and Fuller better, but I get the allure with Burrow.  Will Fuller in the 6th broke my heart.  I wanted him or Brown and you snagged him!  If he stays healthy he could be a top 10 wideout.  It’s a big IF, but enjoy him while you have him.  I know I enjoyed him last year during that 50+ point explosion against Atlanta.  Delicious.  More great value in Marvin Jones Jr in the 7th.  Decent Wr 3.  Diontae Johnson was a good flyer in the 8th.  Lots of buzz this offseason.  Hayden Hurst should do well in Atlanta.  I don’t think he does what Hooper did last year, but I think he is going to be solid.  Ravens D/ST in the 10th.  I don’t know what to make of the Raven’s D.  They add Calais Campbell which is huge, but then lose Earl Thomas.  Plus division got better around them.  Steelers get Big Ben back, Bengals get Burrow.  Browns upgraded offensive line significantly.  It’ll be interesting to see.  You got your quarterbacks in rounds 11 and 12.  Great value in Stafford and Cam.  I think you’ll be pleased. Gesicki was great in the 13th.  He was a target of mine. 

Draft Grade: C+.  I think you wiffed on the first two.  But you really did a great job getting value in the mid and late rounds.  This gives you a decent starting lineup with some firepower and above average depth.  It’ll take a lot of managing, but you can make some noise if you play your cards right. 

  • Chase.  I made quite a bit of money in the stock market.  I did that by selling stocks when the market is very high and buying stocks when the market is very low.  When people zig, I zag.  That’s exactly what Chase did here.  While everyone got caught up in the Rb sweepstakes Chase took Michael Thomas and Davante Adams to start his draft.  I actually have Adams as my Wr #1 this year.  These two could approach 300 targets and targets= potential.  One of the stat nerds I follow on Twitter did analysis of Wide Receivers ability to get open.  Adams was the far superior wideout in the league.  Chase will compete.  In the 3rd he took Chrsi Godwin.  Some say his skillset is perfect for Brady.  I think Chase would have been better off taking Bell Cow James Conner here, but having Godwin took take of is flex to start the year.  When Conner went to Scotty in the 4th Chase got his first Rb and he chose Le’Veon Bell.  Adam Gase hates Le’Veon Bell.  Adam Gase might be fired by midseason, so maybe Bell does well back half of the year.  But Frank Gore will spell him.  Gore energizes the team.  It’s inspirational to see a 35+ year old score in the NFL.  Same thing in Arizona with Larry Fitz.  Gore will be annoying this season.  Bell should get 15-20 touches per game, on a bad Jets team.  In Round 5 Chase took Leonard.  Fournette might get goal line carries, but man.  He had so many goal line carries last year and couldn’t score.  Like… he did really really bad.  Bucs offensive line should be better than Jacksonville, but jesus.  Whole situation is gross.  He should receive more carries than Rojo sooner rather than later this season.  He is better than Rojo.  In Round 6 Raheem Mostert.  I think the Niners will continue to rotate in backs.  Jerick McKinnon is still alive somehow.  Tevin Coleman is there.  I think Mostert will get most of the work.  Coleman will rotate in drives and McKinnon will take over some 3rd down stuff.  He should be serviceable some weeks.  In Round 7 you took #LetRussCook.  I still think Dak Prescott will outscore Wilson (again), so you missed here.  But he’s still a solid quarterback and better than Murray who Mike took 8 picks prior.  Liked Marlon Mack in the 8th.  (See Joe’s team on Jonathan Taylor for my Mack opinion).  Did decent rest of the way.

Draft Grade: A-.  That Thomas-Adams duo is just fucking beautiful. 

  1. Scotty.  You must’ve eaten your Wheaties before this draft because you were not messing around!  I thought Ekeler was a bit of a reach in the 1st.  I liked Mixon, Adams, and Sanders better.  But if you took Sanders at 10 and Ekeler at 15 you’d still wind up the same, so I’m not going to dock you anything.  That’s a great duo.  Sanders was great to watch last year.  You’ll be annoyed with how much Boston Scott plays, but Sanders can do it all.  Run, catch, break tackles, elude defenders.  Very well done.  Cooper Kupp in the 3rd was okay.  I’m not a fan.  He was #4 last year and has great report with Jared Goff, but I liked Woods and Cooper a little better.  In the 4th you got what everyone will refer to as the Steal of the Draft in James Conner.  Last year he was a 1st round pick.  Big Ben got hurt and the Steelers almost limped into the playoffs with Duck Hodges at Qb.  Conner is a true bell cow.  He’ll get 70%+ of the work.  And this pick secures you as having the best Rb Trio in the league.  Ekeler-Sanders-Conner.  Nasty.  In Round 5 you got Tyler Lockett, another person who has great chemistry with their Qb.  Maybe your team name should be Total Chemistry instead of Total Domination.  (Dad jokes are a disease I’m seeking help).  Landry was meh in the 6th round.  I think Hooper and Kareem Hunt kind of sandwich Landry’s sweet spot in the short to medium routes.  I just don’t see it this season.  Then in the 7th.  You got #2 fantasy Qb from a year ago and probably #2 or #3 Qb this year in Dak Prescott.  He loses Randall Cobb and Jason Witten, but gains CeeDee Lamb and a coach that isn’t going to try and interfere with the offensive coordinator’s jive.  Emmanuel Sanders pick was usless.  You took him before Edelman and Crowder.  That’s really bad.  Jared Cook in the 9th is about right.  D/ST in the 10th was meh.       

Draft Grade: A.  Lost the plus with Landry and Sanders picks, but think this is team is the favorite to win Division 3.  Tommy, Chase, and Mike are all solid.  But Scotty’s trio of Rb’s are the real deal. 

  1. JD.  Drake and Jones to start.  They both did well last year.  I liked Mixon better than Drake and Sanders better than both of them.  Drake was awesome for Arizona.  He’s a little banged up but I think he does well this year.  Jones will be frustrating to watch.  Ask Scotty.  He gets like 12-15 touches per game.  AJ Dillon and Jamaal Williams will eat some.  Jones survived on Touchdowns last year.  It might be asking too much to expect the same output.  Regression is inevitable.  But I would take this duo over Trey’s duo every day of the week.  I don’t particularly like the Courtland Sutton over Cooper and Woods pick.  Sutton is in Denver with Drew Lock.  But they also have two running backs, Noah Fant, Jerry Jeudy.  Kind of a lot of mouths to feed.  Mark Andrews will be fun to watch.  Watching him jump up and snagging touchdowns from Lamar was beautiful.  Absolutely loved your wideout selections in Rounds 5 and 6.  DJ Chark do do do do do (to the sound of baby shark or baby shark faster version or hiccups baby shark or God help all parents of toddlers who listen to this shit all day everyday).  Marquise Brown put on some muscle this offseason.  His diet is legit.  I wanted him bad in the 6th round, but you gobbled him up.  Shepherd should be the #1 Wideout for the Giants.  Lindsay is a good value in the 8th round.  Co-starters are legit.  Robby Anderson sucks.  Start him he’ll get you 0.  Bench him he’ll go off for 30.  Just drop him now and thank me later.  Mattison in the 10th round.  The most important handcuff in the game right there.  Hold on to him with your life.  Last year when Mahomes got hurt I offered Chase Josh Allen then a Top 5 Qb for Mattison (Cook wasn’t hurt yet) and he refused.  That’s the value of an elite handcuff.  Great flyers throughout and Dallas Kicker-D/ST stack. 

Draft Grade: A.  I thought drafting you and Joe would lead to kicker bowls.  Instead I might finish 3rd or last in the damn division.

  1. Katon.  Although I appreciate you changing your team name to “Just here to Pay dues” you still haven’t paid your dues lol.  I know you’re good for it.  Just send me $100 of that popcorn your daughter was selling and we’ll be square.  Chubb and Mixon is a great 1-2 punch.  Tough division, and Chubb will lose a lot to Kareem Hunt, but offensive line is much improved.  Mixon just got paid and they figured out how to use him end of last year.  Too little too late for Mike unfortunately.  Cooper-Woods combo is a great Wr duo.  I think you got a solid foursome to start your draft.  Didn’t care of Keenan Allen or David Montgomery picks.  Allen is on the Chargers who will slow things down on offense.  Montgomery is already hurt and playing behind Trubisky (barfs).  Thought you got good value with Parker and Engram.  Daniel Jones will look to Engram early and often.  Decent value late. 

Draft Grade: B.  Not sexy, but will compete most weeks.  Outside chance of winning D1, the weakest division. 

In Order:

  1. Scotty- A
