Value Based Drafting


Panthro

Recommended Posts

First off, lemme know if I'm not talking about the same thing...

I agree with this because now that most team's don't have workhorse backs anymore, the first two rounds aren't as top heavy with RBs.

I'm leaning towards this rather than my typical RB-RB or RB-QB strategy in the first two rounds...making my own top 30/40 or so and picking the highest who's available for the first few rounds

im a BIG fan of football diehards panthro. also of value based. this idea basically comes from the Cowboys during the Jimmy Johnson era where they understood how to correctly put a value on a player.

do this and you draft calmly and wisely.

I'm a DD user...and while I do use the utility, I don't go directly by what it tells me. I factor in draft pick spot and odds of still getting that particular player when he comes around. I never go blindly by what tools tell me to pick. Lot of other factors go into decisions. Like playoff schedules...etc.

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
