I don't think so, Jackson will have a role of course but Ekeler will have a rushing role and the third down work. Anyway, I'm hoping Gordon comes back within the first four games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PizzaBeerFF 757 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I reached for Lamar Jackson as a back up to Aaron Rodgers in the first standard draft. The Qb tds are only 4pts and 1 point per 25 yards passing. But rushing is 1 pt per 10 yards. I am assuming this will help vault Jackson to the top 10 and maybe even top 5. But who the hell knows...

But who the hell knows... could've reached even lower for Josh Allen (#1 scoring qb thru weeks 11-17 last year) - think he blows Lamar out the water. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think he’s a solid rb1 so I see value it wasn’t a “reach” for me his ADP puts him round 4 from what I’ve seen though but I didn’t wanna risk it Edited August 28, 2019 by Asapjoshy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

His 4th round ADP is only there because it used to be in the 5th or 6th. It's been steadily climbing for the past two weeks. When I drafted last weekend, his ADP was in the 5th, so the fact that it's up to the 4th now tells you that he's being drafted in the 3rd pretty regularly. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smccague123 1 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Cooper Kupp late fourth round. Was WR2 before he went down with injury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny Rico 76 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It's only a reach if you grab a player that is likely to still be there on your next pick. If you pick him a few spots before his ADP, I think that's just going after your guy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did the same with Kyler Murray. Those rushing yards are like throwing for an extra 2000. Just hope I never want to use him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kupp at 4th is pretty normal range. Not sure if that is a reach. I took him in the third, and that would be considered a reach. But, I am also in a keeper league so ADP gets skewed a bit ( 3 keepers per year) In general that means at the very least your picks need to move up 1 full round.

WillieSmalls 6 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 First post and i don't mean to derail but it doesn't seem the site will allow me to create a new topic. so sorta on topic... i do auctions only. so while there might be similarities between who you reach for in snake, it's otherwise vastly different. those that do auctions - who are you willing to 'over pay' for based on going rates? i'll start 1. Been overpaying for Montgomery/Carson/Jacobs in mocks the past month. The fantasy world has caught up. That said, i'd still 'overpay' for Montgomery. 14-team league - i'd go as high as $35-$40 for Mont. $32 for Jacobs. $$28 for Carson (i believe his catches will go up, but i'm still dubious). the virtues of DMont (pros and cons) have been beaten to death in his outlook thread, so i won't be redundant. obviously i'm a believer. 2. I'm overpaying for Odell all day, every day. Up to $58. If he underperforms he's a Top 10 guy. If he overperforms he could set records. 3. Mike Evans goes criminally low. Here's the difference between 'overpaying' and the current values being completely jacked. He's going around $40. The dude did 1,500 yards last year and has never been under 1k in his career. Y'all can take the Chris Godwin hype and gtfo. Evans will still be the boss in an offense that's going to be trailing often. IMO, i'm not overpaying. IMO, the preseason value is completely whacked. Evans is a $45-$55 player every single season until proven otherwise. 4. Late Value WR Plays Provided some newb/moron doesn't nominate AJ Green within the first 80 picks, he's going to go when money is scarce. There will be 2 or 3 with the cash to pay. I will be one of them. And i'll gladly pay $10ish for a guy, that on a per game basis, is a difference maker. I'm also targeting Geronimo Allison for what should be a $1 pickup. *Sorry if i derailed. Mods - by all means - move this to a new thread of 'Auction Values' or some such thing. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I may have been able to get him at the next turn 23 picks later, but he may not have been there, and RB were becoming scarce. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spina 730 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 16 Team League -- Pick 15 **NOTE** Other would consider these two Picks reaches...not me. Marlon Mack - with the 18th Overall Pick (2nd Round) -- owned him last year, once he got healthy he quickly earned 'my guy' status, so I had to have him on the squad once again over the other RBs at that position (Mixon, Fournette, Aaron Jones, Damien Williams, Derrick Henry). Plus there was no way he was making it back in a 16T. Some may disagree. Don't care. Josh Gordon - Admitted JG Fan Boy. Yes I have problems, and enjoy self-inflicted pain, but there was NO WAY I was letting him slip as far down the "expert" rankings without getting him -- Pick 47, End of 3rd (also picked Melvin Gordon two picks later - Back-to-Back Gordons). It went: Robert Woods Chris Godwin Brandin Cooks Josh Gordon -- pick 47, 3rd Kenny Golladay Sony Michel Melvin Gordon -- pick 50, 4th Mike Williams Cooper Kupp Phillip Lindsay Calvin Ridley Tyler Locket Tyler Boyd Believe I got Josh Gordon exactly where I should have -- once again, like Mack...he wasn't getting back to me so you pull the trigger despite what the 'experts' think. Other's more of Target's that Reaches: Dede Westbrook - 79th Overall, 6th Round Miles Boykin - 175th Overall, 11th Round Darren Waller - 207th Overall, 13th Round Full Team below for reference..... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Please tell me you are starting Lamar over Rogers week 1 How did you know? I like his matchup better than Rodgers vs Chicago line. They are projected about even. But I drew top guy in league according to projections. So go big and got rest of season to recover if I am wrong. Nothing that scary about Miami d for me. i mean I drew first week match up against projected top other fantasy manager.
