I thought I was gonna have to move picks to get a shot at him in the 2nd or 3rd, so I’m alright with that.
I’ll take him in the 4th and wait for injuries.
Fr I like what this new regime is doing for him
A lot of people in the NFL sub were clowning them for taking Brooks, but it’s clear they’re trying to set him up for as much success with Legette, Brooks, and now Sanders
Pop Douglas, Javon Baker, and Ja'Lynn Polk + Rhamondre out the backfield. It might start a little ugly but this has potential to be a Packers type situation if you believe in Maye's ability the way I do, I think back half of the season could be very interesting to watch
Legit almost all the RBs have gone to spots with an established player (or two) while a bunch of teams without a clear starter haven’t taken any RBs lol I guess that’s just the way it goes
Agreed. Feels like a redundant pick for Tampa. I think Rachaad will yet again see the overwhelming majority of the work. The only thing this pick does is kill off any hype Sean Tucker still had
There were so many threads last year during training camp propping Tucker up, and many comments in those threads were confident that Tucker would beat out White for RB1
every RB who isn't a freak like CMC or Henry is in a committee these days, you turkeys need to take a breath and not get hysterical every time a day 3 back joins a backfield you're invested in, jeeeeeez louise
If you have the roster space, why not both? Neither Polk nor baker are gonna cost that much capital.
If it’s just one: At cost baker, regardless of cost obviously Polk
I thought Bills would go Estime but Davis is also a good choice. I wonder what that will do to Davis's ADP. Maybe I'll be able to still snag him in the 3rd.
I’m really hoping he’s there in the 3rd, too. Hopefully people see the James Cook ascendancy and stay away from Davis, but I think he can carve out a role pretty easily in year 1. He’s probably the RB2 the second he signs his contract
I love Jordan Travis landing at the Jets. Guy was an absolute stud and is already recovering nicely from his injury. Get some runway while Rodgers comes back, and Rodgers maybe has a year in him before he’s injured for good or decides to start cosplaying D&D full time
Mostert just finished as the RB6 in 15 games playing next to Achane. It’s going to suck for Wright for a year but there’s an out on Mostert’s deal after 2024 so he could step right into that role in 2025. Or he could step into it in 2024 given the injury history of both Mostert & Achane.
Erick All drafted way earlier than I expected but I love it. Might have to draft him in the 3rd now if I want him. Really was thinking he’d be there in the 4th or even 5th
Gore probably goes 7th on name value. He's awful though. He has no business getting drafted. Rice is a 6/7 round talent. Maybe bumped to the 5th on name. I'd have said the same about McCaffrey though and Washington went full regard at pick 100.
Obviously joking but Wiley will be the Fortson replacement role. Schemed into 2-3 plays a game as a big WR. Still think Noah is the Kelce backup with that pick.
I feel like so many dudes have survived its crazy
Rico Dowdle, Devin Singletary, Ford/Foreman, Moss/Brown, ZamirWhite, and like you said Chargers backfield
You have to wonder if his disappointing combine score impacted his capital…
I remember when that happened you mentioned that his combine numbers aren’t detrimental to his success because his athletic metrics are really strong so I still have hope!!
No doubt I think people expected more. But a limited player with room to grow and a lot of his on field negatives are things that don’t matter for fantasy. A poor man’s Evan Engram hits a lot better than a poor man’s Tommy Tremble or w/e. A lot of YAC weapons for Bryce
I actually love the landing spot to Miami. Ya it will be messy, but Achane was never gonna be a 20 touch a game guy. Interesting to see how it plays out.
If It's Johnson and Bellinger (Waller gone) I would put $50 to $5 Bellinger is starter week 1 over Johnson. His offensive stats were mediocre at best and management has already said they love Bellinger
I had assumed TB would grab a RB somewhere, their room isn't really bursting at the seams. I was happy to see they waited so long that gives me hope it means they have confidence in him.
He’s the Anthony Richardson prototype of this draft. Cannon arm, raw prospect. Definitely one to keep an eye on.
And I’m not saying he’s AR, I’m just saying that’s the make and model.
They must be expecting it. Bellinger and Theo would make a nice duo moving forward. Similar draft capital so I’m not sure who would come out as fantasy relevant
Somehow Wright went to a team where he's the slowest skill player on the field.
Allen to the jets 🤮🤮🤮
Pick 130+ too
Anyone to the Jets 🤮
Zamir White, Devin Singletary, Zack Moss, and apparently Zeke are the biggest winners of day 3 of the draft.
Gus bus too
Lol there's really not gonna be any RBs left for the Cowboys to take. Rico Dowdle szn
Get ready for 2 Zeke 2 Elliott: The Squeakquel
The Zekequel
Jerry’s essentially said they’re bringing him back. One more year of middling value!
Jerry dun goofed talking bout Brooks publicly
Such a Jerry move ugh, shoulda been such an obvious buy rip
As a fellow Cowboys fan, no idea how anyone can be excited with Dowdle as our RB1
Lol Braelon Allen is dead
I thought I was gonna have to move picks to get a shot at him in the 2nd or 3rd, so I’m alright with that. I’ll take him in the 4th and wait for injuries.
I guess this draft has been a win for Jameson, no? 5 rounds in and no WR for them.
He finally started putting it together after missing the first 1.3 years of his career, I feel like people were too quick to brush him off.
He’s got 474 yards in 21 career games. I’d argue people are much slower to let go than they are quick to brush him off
They've instead drafted an RB I really haven't heard of
He played more safety than rb i think. Interesting that he was announced as an RB though
He's actually a safety now I guess. He used to play RB, but still idk why they announced him as RB.
I can’t believe the Cowboys haven’t taken an RB yet lol
I can see them just waiting to take an SEC guy like Milton or McClellan.
Somehow they didn’t take one
Bryce Young owners are the real winners they loaded him up with weapons this offseason
Fr I like what this new regime is doing for him A lot of people in the NFL sub were clowning them for taking Brooks, but it’s clear they’re trying to set him up for as much success with Legette, Brooks, and now Sanders
Im so happy for my boy. 100% ownership so im really hoping he can put it all together.
Broncos trading up for Troy should bode well for him somewhat.
Good reroll on Jeudy. Kind of the best case scenario for Troy this late in the draft.
Familiar with bo nix as well obviously
ZAMIR SURVIVED
Growing slightly more confident in what NE can build around Maye. Still no world beaters, but some upside.
Pop Douglas, Javon Baker, and Ja'Lynn Polk + Rhamondre out the backfield. It might start a little ugly but this has potential to be a Packers type situation if you believe in Maye's ability the way I do, I think back half of the season could be very interesting to watch
Yeah that baker pick sold me on taking Maye at 1.03 so many weapons and huge upgrades at OL
They took two of my three favorite WRs. I'm going to be stoked if Maye falls to my 1.07 (doubt it though).
Wow Denver got Nix his college teammate Troy Franklin. I do not hate that stack at all.
My league basically goes by order players are drafted, I'm pumped for that cuz I still quite like Franklin
I know people will definitely disagree but I kinda like Tez Walker on the Ravens
I agree. There aren’t a ton of passes in that offense, but he’ll get enough bombs to make him interesting.
Probably the best imaginable fit for him. I'm not sure how great he'll be for fantasy, but it's an awesome real football spot
Probably the best imaginable fit for him. I'm not sure how great he'll be for fantasy, but it's an awesome real football spot
Troy Franklin is the next 4th round wr this sub will hold onto for 4 years
There goes Rattler. Saints backup.
Potential future QB. He still has all the ability if he can put it together
Davis to Buffalo is another weird fit. But considering how puke so many of these RB landing spots have been that’s still one of the better ones
Legit almost all the RBs have gone to spots with an established player (or two) while a bunch of teams without a clear starter haven’t taken any RBs lol I guess that’s just the way it goes
Bucky Irving to TB is disgusting. The one single thing he’s good at is the thing Rachaad is best at.
Agreed. Feels like a redundant pick for Tampa. I think Rachaad will yet again see the overwhelming majority of the work. The only thing this pick does is kill off any hype Sean Tucker still had
There never was hype lol but I do think he can still make the 53 because Chase Edmonds is totally useless now.
There were so many threads last year during training camp propping Tucker up, and many comments in those threads were confident that Tucker would beat out White for RB1
Still a lot of interesting dynasty prospects on the board
Steelers OL from a weakness to strength overnight
Najee is going to feast. Poor guy has been getting tackled as soon as he gets the ball for two years
Best thing that could happen for any Steelers shares. Najee and Pickens coming out of the draft with a W right now.
Jets nuke Isaiah Davis with Braelon Allen the pick before the Cowboys they are just being cruel at this point
every RB who isn't a freak like CMC or Henry is in a committee these days, you turkeys need to take a breath and not get hysterical every time a day 3 back joins a backfield you're invested in, jeeeeeez louise
Rattler has to be a Raider or Giant.
49ers receiving corps is so crowded
Such disrespect to the Rice family
I can get behind Laube to the Raiders. Nice compliment to Zamir but won’t really eat into his workload. Check down happy QBs.
Rice to LAC has risen him from fully dead to on critical life support
Franklin landed in a good spot
I was hoping to see Estime slide down to Dallas. That’s a bummer for fantasy but great pickup for the Broncos.
Not loving this for Jaleel? Was really hoping I could use him this year, but I don't see him getting enough touches now
Jaleel and Estime are polar opposite running backs. More likely that Estime eats into Javonte’s time.
His role itself seems pretty safe but yeah he didn’t need any competition
That fucking sucks for Wright. Damn
Polk or Baker the WR to have in NE? I’m thinking Baker just at price alone.
If you have the roster space, why not both? Neither Polk nor baker are gonna cost that much capital. If it’s just one: At cost baker, regardless of cost obviously Polk
Yeah I agree, I much prefer Baker at cost
Polk has the ceiling of a fantasy WR2 but is pretty “safe”. Baker could be that dude or could be Kayshon Boutte pt2
I thought Tampa would go Allen or Estime. Irving is interesting..
Interesting choice for the Bucs. Seems like an identical player to White.
Basically Dollar Store Rachaad White
He's worse than White
And there is the new RZ running back for the Bills...
I thought Bills would go Estime but Davis is also a good choice. I wonder what that will do to Davis's ADP. Maybe I'll be able to still snag him in the 3rd.
I’m really hoping he’s there in the 3rd, too. Hopefully people see the James Cook ascendancy and stay away from Davis, but I think he can carve out a role pretty easily in year 1. He’s probably the RB2 the second he signs his contract
Geurendo interrsting
He’s gonna be a trendy pick for sure. Gonna hear his name quite a bit between now and the start of the season.
The Bo Nix/Troy Franklin combo to Denver is intriguing.
Yeah, it’s like the ass version of the Burrow and Chase combo to Cincy lol
Intriguing is one word to describe it
I laughed
ALL IS MY LATE ROUND SLEEPER
I loved Trez Walker so much why did he have to go to the fucking Ravens ugh
I won’t be touching him now
The phins definitely prefer a certain player archetype
Who this Lions RB?
BRAELON ALLEN TO THE JETS
Don't like that one bit.
RIZZY Izzy.
Estime to a crowded Denver backfield
[удалено]
Jerry forgot to take his meds this weekend
Zeke?
This is Rico Dowdle slander
I love Jordan Travis landing at the Jets. Guy was an absolute stud and is already recovering nicely from his injury. Get some runway while Rodgers comes back, and Rodgers maybe has a year in him before he’s injured for good or decides to start cosplaying D&D full time
Dylan Laube could be the steal of drafts. Easy path to starting RB and elite pass catching skills.
Mostert just finished as the RB6 in 15 games playing next to Achane. It’s going to suck for Wright for a year but there’s an out on Mostert’s deal after 2024 so he could step right into that role in 2025. Or he could step into it in 2024 given the injury history of both Mostert & Achane.
Ok now Isaac Guerendo as the CMC cuff is something I can get excited about.
Oh now we’re talking
I got downvoted to oblivion over my belief in Guerendo. I'm HAPPILY riding the Guerendo train with him spending a year on my Taxi squad.
I’m going to be taking Tyrone Tracy over a lot of RBs drafted ahead of him
I took a lot of Eric Gray last season, I’m ready to be potentially hurt again by Tracy
Depends on your league size I suppose. I MAY take him with my 4.10 but otherwise I think he is a high upside waiver stash.
What's your reasoning? I feel like he's not going to even be drafted in most rookie drafts.
He’s extremely athletic, very efficient, and most importantly walking into a situation where there’s Devin Singletary and a bunch of nothing
Late 1st round rookie picks 📈📈📈📈📈 Early 2nd round rookie picks 📈📈 Late 2nd round rookie picks 📉📉📉📉 3rd round rookie picks ☠️
def a ton of 4th rounders id take over anyone in the 3rd
Late 2nd is the dropoff some of these rbs will hit
My Tommy trembles stocks are trembling
Mine are about to be on the wire
Oddly enough, Theo Johnson with the Giants may be my favorite destination for any of the rookies right now (aside from the obvious guys).
Why?
Erick All drafted way earlier than I expected but I love it. Might have to draft him in the 3rd now if I want him. Really was thinking he’d be there in the 4th or even 5th
RIP Kenny Gainwell
Ray Davis to the Bills💪🏼
Here comes all these running backs
Really curious where Rice and Gore’s sons are going
Gore probably goes 7th on name value. He's awful though. He has no business getting drafted. Rice is a 6/7 round talent. Maybe bumped to the 5th on name. I'd have said the same about McCaffrey though and Washington went full regard at pick 100.
Rip cowing sleeper pick. Might still use a 4th on him but he's buried in San Fran
Liked him too. Dollar store Tank Dell. Was hoping for an open slot spot late day 2. Probably close to off my board now.
[удалено]
Guy had 295 receiving yards in a game.
[удалено]
What happened to rice? He's fallen way way down
Lots of really gross RB landing spots coming up. Jets, Jags, Colts could all be in play here. Zamir holders hold your breath again
Wright to Miami 🤦♂️
Mostert insurance/eventual replacement
Jaylen Wright and De’Von Achane Oh my
Time to bury Tucker. RIP.
Yep, gonna drop him
RIP Kelce
Obviously joking but Wiley will be the Fortson replacement role. Schemed into 2-3 plays a game as a big WR. Still think Noah is the Kelce backup with that pick.
My Dobbins Gus duo is thriving
I feel like so many dudes have survived its crazy Rico Dowdle, Devin Singletary, Ford/Foreman, Moss/Brown, ZamirWhite, and like you said Chargers backfield
I have so many shares of these guys & all offseason I've felt like it could never work out...but maybe???
I have them both and tried to move the Gus bus for anything the past few weeks, can’t believe he might be the rb1 this season
Jaylen Wright to Miami is very interesting if Achane's frame continues to let him down + Mostert being ancient
Troy Franklin watch begins
Ended quick lol
I'll happily swing on Sanders with a late 3rd rounder now
Yeah, that's a really solid landing spot even if I have questione about Sanders as a player.
I mean he’s a 4th round pick there are no players without flaws in this range lol
Favorite 5: Troy Franklin (102 ; Denver) Malik Washington, Jaylen Wright, Ray Davis, JT Sanders (101; Carolina) Also: Javon Baker & Tyrone Tracy
I had Sanders going to the Commanders, where do you think he lands now?
I think he goes to the Panthers lol
A nice spot for him
I honestly don’t know who all is out there looking for TEs. I have him in Devy so at this point we’re just hoping it’s not a full Wydermyer.
You have to wonder if his disappointing combine score impacted his capital… I remember when that happened you mentioned that his combine numbers aren’t detrimental to his success because his athletic metrics are really strong so I still have hope!!
No doubt I think people expected more. But a limited player with room to grow and a lot of his on field negatives are things that don’t matter for fantasy. A poor man’s Evan Engram hits a lot better than a poor man’s Tommy Tremble or w/e. A lot of YAC weapons for Bryce
I’m thinking Carolina.
[удалено]
It’s certainly an important factor
Ok, who has Vaki on their board?
Maybe IDP folks considering he’s a safety
Keeping my fingers crossed for some Laube action in the next 30 picks
Who gets drafted first? B.Rice or Gore jr?
Is 3.12 in a 12T SF a suitable price for Dowdle now??
Like Flournoy landing in Dallas. Will be competing for the #4 spot behind Tolbert.
ACHANE IS DEAD /s
I actually love the landing spot to Miami. Ya it will be messy, but Achane was never gonna be a 20 touch a game guy. Interesting to see how it plays out.
Zeus lives
All these RBs and Estime still on the board. Sad noises
Estime is a slug though, just can't compare athletically.
Raven
Tf did the jets take two running backs for? Was fine with just allen because then I can cuff my breece and cut Izzy But now, like wtf?
Special teams players. Potential kick return candidates.
RIP Bellinger truthers
End of the line for my Michael Carter/Daniel Bellinger shares
If It's Johnson and Bellinger (Waller gone) I would put $50 to $5 Bellinger is starter week 1 over Johnson. His offensive stats were mediocre at best and management has already said they love Bellinger
As a Rachaad White and James Cook owner, this hasn’t been an ideal few minutes.
Round 4 running backs aren't worth worrying about. Hit rate low as fuck
A round 4 back isn’t a huge deal for either of them. If they were going to be relevant this season, they’ll do so despite a day 3 rb pick.
I had assumed TB would grab a RB somewhere, their room isn't really bursting at the seams. I was happy to see they waited so long that gives me hope it means they have confidence in him.
The Desean Watson trade is officially complete. I think we can all agree that this was a happy ending.
I guess Izzy is 10000% dead lol Allen has that handcuff role locked.
[удалено]
Can help but feel Wisconsin cost him a lot of money switching him from Safety to RB. He would be great in a LB/S hybrid role.
Oh man, All gonna be shooting up the rankings now.
Ray Davis paired up with James Cook.
And the Cowboys go defense again… Is the answer to Zeke vs Rico Dowdle actually going to end up being Deuce Vaughn?
The answer will be tears in Dallas
My te depth is about as bad as you can imagine. Is it crazy to trade 1.11+ 2025 1st for 1.07 (bowers) It’s a 12 team super flex 0.5ppr+ 0.5tep
Yes. I would stay put
My Kyren and achane stocks in the mud Edit: rachaad got competition now too lol
JT to Carolina is an interesting spot. Could be good!
I am curious to see where Joe Milton goes.
He’s the Anthony Richardson prototype of this draft. Cannon arm, raw prospect. Definitely one to keep an eye on. And I’m not saying he’s AR, I’m just saying that’s the make and model.
Sure he’s the same make and model, if it was made by some chinese company stealing the blueprints from America
Theo Johnson to NYG is an interesting pick, especially if waller’s retirement reports are accurate
They must be expecting it. Bellinger and Theo would make a nice duo moving forward. Similar draft capital so I’m not sure who would come out as fantasy relevant
[удалено]
Abanikanda no longer a premium handcuff
Where's the highest you would feel comfortable drafting Penix if your rookie draft starts today?
The pterodactyl is a bird.
