Nobody.

Too many players in the 2nd and 3rd that will be barely a notch below those 1st rounders. Regardless of where my pick is, I'm going to try to trade out of the 1st. Maybe get a 2nd and 4th or if I'm lucky a 2nd and 3rd. That's my plan anyway. Thoughts?

I had them both on a few of my FF teams last year too, but then again I got them in the mid-late rounds :D

DWill is going to face tougher defenses and Stewart will push for more carries (Goodson might take a few as well). I still think he'll have a good year, just not as great as last season. IMO, won't be worth the 2-5 overall pick, which is where I see him going.

I won't be mad or anything if I end up getting him, but the first move will be an attempt to trade down.

Well, seems trading out of the 1st is pretty easy. People go nuts over a 1st rounder. I'm in a 12 man league and I had the #8 overall spot. Packaged that and a 7th rounder (#80 overall) to a guy for the 1st pick in the 2nd round (#13 overall) and 1st pick in the 4th (#37 overall).

I'll probably end up taking the same guy at #13 than I would have at #8 (or a guy with almost the exact same value). So, basically moved my #80 pick to #37 and gave up almost no value to do it.

Might try to trade that top 2nd rounder for a low 2nd rounder and get another extra early pick :D

I think that Chris Johnson is going to have a monster year. Outside of the top 2 picks Im going after Chris Johnson. He is really pushing LenDale out the door, Kerry Collins still sucks and nobody there can catch the ball.

So teams will stack the box and make it much tougher for him to break runs. How does that bode well for him?

I don't think I'll do anything but my dynasty league this year, so only a rookie draft for me.

I picked up MJD last year in the fourth round so I've got my up and comer to go along with Westbrook and Lynch when he gets back from suspension.

      Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
