    fantasy football questionIn a league

    I have 3rd pick in draft. Have been told that bell and guerley are gone. This league gives you points for yardage. You get 6 pts td less than 10/ 9 for 10-39/ 12 for over 40.I 'm a big jinx. Last yr i had david johnson. @ years ago i had guerly when he sucked. three yrs ago i drafted peterson and he became a child beater. I'm between d.johnson,elliott, brown pitt wr and sea qb who i think is going to have a big year. I have the ability to find value in latter rounds on receivers and qb. Everyone's thought are appreciated

    If you want to go with RB with first pick Zeke or Johnson wouldn't be a bad call. Both will be getting the ball a shit ton this season. I don't think you could go wrong with taking Hopkins (now that Watson is back) or of course Brown because both should be monsters.

    Whatever you do stay the fuk away from a QB early in the draft.

    I've pretty much committed myself to investing heavily in running backs in my drafts so far this year. I mostly play in PPR leagues so the last few years I valued heavily targeted receivers over running backs early in drafts. However, I feel like you need to get a workhorse back early this year if you're serious about winning your league so in your case I'd go with Zeke with the third pick. I lean towards him over Johnson but like unde says I don't know that you can go wrong choosing between them. I just like Zeke a little better because he's going to get the ball a ton this year.

    Big cowboys fan here, to take a devils advocate approach it's likely Johnson doesn't get hurt back to back and zeke hasn't really been banged up this year and with lack of wideouts make get the rock too much early. Don't think you can go wrong with either. But yes don't draft Wilson. If your league is remotely decent he will be there during your second pick

    Great question. first so don’t rely on a WR ( too many variables..QB etc). Stick with a Running Back that will be the guy. In recent past years people thought WRs were number one picks. They aren’t even close. While OBJ and AB are the cool picks at your draft.. guess what.... they need a good QB to throw to them. So I suggest take aRB 3 .. no names mentioned. BOL

    Can't really go wrong with either Zeke or Johnson. Precisely why I'd prefer to have 4th or 5th pick this season instead of 1st pick.

    I personally have Gurley, Bell, Zeke, Johnson 1-4, but would not argue much with anyone taking DJ at 3.
