Luck and Cohen for me they have the highest ADP and they're both guys i like this year.

edit didn't see Drake he's probably higher adp than Cohen, but i'm not a fan

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

I like Luck and Ballage.
Ballage's ADP is climbing. By the end of August he'll be a 3rd round pick.

Going to assume the rosters are large and WW slim. In which case I'd keep Luck . After that it gets dicey, Not a fan of Drake at all, but supposedly he'll be the starter. So he's a candidate. Which Samuels is it you have? If it's Curtis I keep him, if not MVS would worth considering, be dicey but best bet available I think, unless you like Drake. Not a Funchess fan, but I know he is getting hype, I'm not biting on it myself.

starting 3 WR's, 6 keepers, I'm assuming 12 teams? And by the looks of your keeper options, WR's are not plentiful....I'm keeping Luck and Funchess

I think you gotta keep Luck. Drake is a starting RB- he would be hard to pass up. Wild card for me is Washington in Pittsburgh. He has a chance to put some numbers this year.

Definitely Luck.

The rest is garbage. I say MVS, highest upside.

Maybe Ben just to be done at that position but I wouldn't like it.

Probably Jayson. Just look at all those soft ass Steelers on that team.

That's what I did last year. Luck and Ben.

Lots of Luck votes...

Yes, it's 12 teams.

I was leaning against the QBs this year.
Still thinking to cover the Phins backfield...but man, everyone's on the Luck train.

Your already keeping 2 RBs and you start 3 WRs think you need to keep the best WR on your list and that's a tough one. I put them in this order:

MVS would be my choice, has the highest ceiling IMO
Funchess , but only because that would give you a stack with Luck ( who you should keep).
Washington is in that Steeler WR corp, but seems more of a long shot

I am nervous about Drake.

He seems to be losing ground to Ballage.

That said, Drake is the pass catcher in that backfield and is surely the back to own in a PPR league. Just not so sure about keeping him.

Cohen will also lose a few touches with a true 3 down back taking over for Howard.

Don’t think there is a single great option on the list. All those guys should be available for you to redraft in the first few rounds.

I think what I would probably do is keep Luck and your favorite RB between Cohen and Drake.

Then I would try to pick as many high upside WRs as I could, knowing that QB and TE are solidified and that I had a good start at RB.

The goal should be to take like 4 or 5 upside players, hope to hit on 2 and avoid this dilemma next season.

Well... I feel like an asshole. Didn't notice Devonta Freeman on my IR.

Guess that solves that.

Seems like Luck is the consensus 6th.

Thanks gentlemen.

Makes it easy for me. Freeman and Luck round it out. I was one of the ones considering Cohen and Drake/Ballage for the other spot before you included Freeman, if that makes any difference to you.

Do you have an idea of what QBs might be available? I'd start there first. Luck is a good QB if healthy, but depending on the potential options available, the difference might not be that much. The difference between top QBs and average fantasy QBs is a lot smaller than any other position. If there's decent options available, I think I'd cut Luck and keep a RB and WR (Ballage and Washington/Funchess). Luck's health factors into this for me as well. I'd hate to keep him only to have to play another QB anyway down the road.

If there's no other good options available though, I'd probably go Luck and Ballage (or whoever looks most likely to win the Fins job)
