I would be pretty stunned if he fell that far. Im seeing him at the turn almost every time. I was very lucky and surprised to see him fall to 2.05
He is a in a dream situation. Fits that offense like a glove with his receiving prowess. Hes practicing in full a week before the season starts so i really dont see any concern with his health. They have said all offseason that hes the centerpiece of that offense this year. That rushing scheme is a goldmine for fantasy rbs. Cards will see big uptick in # of plays under second year coach. Defense is still horrible which plays to drakes strength.
I would take him over Miles Sanders who we dont even know is a bell cow. And joe mixon who is probably on a terrible team and terrible offensive line.
If you are looking for RB there you have a better shot of ekeler or chubb falling
In a smart league Hopkins might be there. Its insane that he's going early second or even late first. WR on new teams have a bad track record and no preseason. Hes going before Julio in a lot of drafts which is just silly.
That offense will feature a ton of passes to the rbs and there is a lot of spreading the ball around to receivers. They have 4 or 5 wrs who will get targets. Plus they will run quite a bit and kyler will get his scrambling. Its just not an offense that feeds the WR1 a 17 times a game like big ben did AB or watson to nuke
Hopkins is one of the riskiest top 15 picks i am seeing this year if the not THE riskiest

yeah not crazy about him either, but I don't see him falling to 2.09 really. I'd probably take him though. Like your Golladay take at 2.09 more and more I researched it. This league is ppr but also gives pts for 100 yard bonus/big plays so it evens out......Kirk is a legit 7th-8th rd pick.
For later round QB, I like Brady. Think unless he is total dust (which I've said in a few threads I think he is far from) that he should crush this year. All good weather/dome games in that division/best weapons he's had in years/TB elite run D that is gonna force shootouts. I'd much rather take him than Stafford, Wentz, Brees, Ryan, Rodgers. And if he sucks then whatever, you just go with Jared Goff or Big Ben. Plenty of QB's. If Brady is legit then there isn't going to be much running it out in the 4th quarter with him and Arians. It's gonna be an onslaught.
He has a real chance to crush whereas those guys are just solid floor plays to me.

Agree mostly but definitely would take Ryan over Brady. Ryan has just disgusting weapons, trash D, dome, not 60 years old, consistently high passing volume.
Wont touch wentz. Dont understand why anyone would. He wont stay healthy. Already with soft tissue issues and have not played a game
Rodgers is handcuffed. Hoping that changes this year but wouldn't bet on it
Brees is 60, throws less and less every year. Now has an elite D.
I might go stafford over brady but its close.
Father time as they say is undefeated. Not saying brady has nothing left in the tank but its obviously a risk at his age. Bucs D will be pretty good. Recency bias has us all remembering the absurd shootouts last year but Brady will play more ball control to Win. With his age i would also worry about him losing steam towards the end of the year. Im staying away from all bucs this year. Evans and godwin are being drafted based on last year which is their ceiling IMO.
Normally i wait really late on qb. Got russell wilson last year in the 10th or 11th. But the more i looked at it this season i felt like that second tier (other than dak) kyler, watson, wilson really had the set it and forget value thats worth grabbing in round 6 or 7. With matt ryan an 8th or 9th round grab if you miss out.
Ive lost in the championship game three of the past four seasons. This HAS to be the year i break through
In 2016 i lost championship game to a guy who traded away christine michael for david johnson.....that was the last year i did a league that allowed trades.
2017 first year in NFFC got my ass absolutely handed to me. It was a whole new level of play and i had to adjust. Didn't make playoffs
2018 finished second reg season. The guy who finished first held me off throughout the year but i gave him everything he wanted and then some. Lost championship game by 2 pts. Had it won with just a few seconds remaining. I had AB and he had a MONSTER game against the saints. Saints had the ball on 1 yard line with just a few seconds left in the game and i was up 10. Opponent had brees and thomas. And sure enough, 1 yard td pass to thomas. Even more sick it was ruled short then overturned.
2019 was my best season. Dominated the entire year. Ended first in points and record. Then ran into saquan barkley and his 45 pts in week 16. I had DJ moore who got a concussion on the first play. This was one more tough than the 2 pt loss the year before because i clearly had the best team all year

Pretty sick
I forgot to mention in 16 i also started robby Anderson over sammy watkins in championship. Anderson had been on a hot streak and watkins was hurt and bad all season. Anderson scored 0. Watkins put up 35. Its still the second biggest game of his career. The rest as they say is history

I really wasn't a good player yet. Rode leveon bell that season. Was drafting based on last years performance with zero notion of regression to the mean. Drafted brandon marshall in round 2 based on his flukey year with Fitzpatrick in 15. Terrible pick. But leveon was incredible all year. He fell to late round 1 because he had that two game suspension.
