New England/New Orleans players need a bump (already keeping Kamara)
BigBen gets a bump, maybe CJ Anderson and Ajayi too?

No.

Because Carolina's rushing 1st downs get divided 3 ways, and CJ may have the least of them all.

Same with Ajayi. Philly has stated they want to keep him fresh for the playoffs. Probably looking at a frustrating 12 touches per game or so.

going to end up with the #2 and #3 pick in the draft

not sure if Barkley makes it passed the first guy - he's keeping Diggs (6), Watson (17), Mack (16), and Doyle (15) - - - - he hasn't admitted it yet, but I'm pretty sure he jumped on the Colts bandwagon when the Rams left.

best available for my two top picks:

Barkley
CMC
Alex Collins
Lamar Miller
K Allen
Baldwin
Landry
Marv Jones

god, I would LOVE to add both Barkley and CMC or either one of those 2 RBs and Keenan Allen

At half a point, I'm not bumping much of anyone. Just isn't enough to make a difference, especially given every RB and every QB gets plenty of them. Car and Dallas were higher than most due to running QB's..which isn't even scored. After that there's barely ten points worth of difference between #3 and #15, I would hazard a guess the gap doesn't grow a whole lot from there to 32.
As for the QB's, does an extra 1-1.5 points a week in first downs really make you want Big Ben or Stafford or Rivers over anyone typically ahead of them, or even in the same tier?

Rising tide lifts all boats, and in this case I don't see it enough of a rising tide to make anyone slightly better than the next guy at it, to make it any type of deciding factor.

Its not like this is full point ppr and we're talking Theo Riddick vs Blount.

Now if it were just straight first downs, no difference whether passing or rushing, or even if RB's got receiving first downs, I could see obvious bumps for certain guys, Wilson, Cam, and Dak would get a slight bump for having the extra rushing 1st's, the typical ppr backs would be every so slightly more attractive.

ok - I'll have the 2nd, 3rd, 9th, and 12th picks in the draft

2 of these guys will make my first two picks
Barkley
CMC
K Allen

As for picks 9 and 12:
Alex Collins
Lamar Miller
Baldwin
Landry
Marv Jones
Theilen
Cooper
DT
Ajayi
Royce Freeman
ARob
Landry

looks like it will be stocked full of good WR options - now I'm hoping the guy that picks ahead of me takes Keenan Allen so I can have Bark and CMC, then go WR/RB or RB/WR with my next picks as well

I think we can all agree that he SHOULD take Barkley - but these guys go off the reservation fairly regularly when it comes to draft day
(which is why I'm usually making a deep playoff run annually!)

I'm sure this was already asked and I missed it, but who in the world drops Beckham in a keeper league. 17th round for a top 5-8 overall producer? Christ amighty

In his defense, he would have definitely been a title Contender if those two were healthy

Lol, well yea, they sure do make a difference. In those instances you just gotta blow off that year and plan for next..damn, that sucks. Good for you and whomever snagged Rodgers though!

Exactly - we have extended benches for those instances too (10tm, 17 round draft)

The guy that got Rodgers was 1 spot ahead of me on waiver, or I could've had Ertz, Kamara, Odell, and Rodgers, plus all of my top 7 picks!

99.9% sure that I'm going Keenan Allen and CMC to start - 1st pick is taking Barkley, I've confirmed it 2x, lol

so as for 9 and 12 - most of the value on the board is going to be in WR, as I expect best RB out there to be Royce Freeman, Burkhead, Dion Lewis, Lynch, and Lamar Miller

very uninspiring group, imo, but a lot seem to be on the Royce hype train right now and this is where his ADP is falling - high 40s, currently.

RBs rule the roost, so I'd prefer to soak up as many able bodies there as possible since there's always decent WRs to be had (only start 2)

picks 9/12

push the issue at RB since this is standard or take the potential value at WR since it looks like several top 40 options will be available??

(40 players kept, so that's picks 49 and 52)
