Just did my NFFC ppr draft. Picked 7th. Was certain I would be building my team around either Barkley or Kamara. And all my prep was based on that strategy. So it threw me for a loop when Antonio brown fell to me at 7. Had to adjust on the fly. Projected lineup as follows
QB: Cam Newton
RB: Lesean Mccoy
RB: Tarik Cohen
WR: Antonio Brown
WR: AJ Green
WR: Jamison Crowder
Flex: Pierre Garcon
TE: Zach Ertz
K: Stephen Gostkowski
D: Saints D
Bench
- Mahomes
- Devante Parker
- Nick Chubb
- Isaiah Crowell
- Theo Riddick
- Quincy Enunwa
- Eric Ebron
- Terrelle Pryor
- Jaron Brown
Biggest surprises early on were Brown falling to 7 and Mccaffery going 8th overall. I was one spot away from stealing Keenan Allen in round 2 (settled for AJ Green). Mccoy comes with risk but after going WR WR he was a no brainer as the only bell cow left in mid 3rd round. I expect plenty of receptions from him this year. Toughest decision was in round 4 after I missed Lamar miller by one spot. Deciding between Ertz, Collins RB, or Allen Robinson. Ultimately went with the set it and forget it TE. I'm terrible at TE every year and will be nice to have it as a strength this season.
Looking back at this. I'm glad keenan allen went one pick before I took Green. AJ has been rock solid and Allen hasn't.
Thankfully I made the correct choice in round 4 between Ertz, Collins, Robinson. Also fortunate Lamar miller was gone.
Proves that you need a mix of good fortune and good decisions in the draft to be successful.
Pryor, jaron brown,Garcon, Enunwa, Parker, saints D no longer on my roster
