2018 Fantasy Draft - how does 1st round play out?

[Jay 20]

Yeh I'm keeping Zeke and Kamara without a doubt, they're gonna get the workload and they're playing behind two of the strongest o-lines in the league. I'm not so much concerned with Fournette's injury issues as I am about Corey Grant eating up some his carries....dude proved last season that he deserves more snaps.

I agree with Zeke and Kamara (although I think Fournette and Kamara are close) but I don't think you can mention Corey Grant possibly taking away some of Fournette's carries without the fear of Mark Ingram doing the same to Kamara when he returns from suspension.

Sure, Kamara will probably be in a true timeshare with Ingram but with the way the Saints offense operates he'll get his fair share of touches. What really puts Kamara a top Fournette is his pass catching abilities. He caught 80+ balls last season, and I have no doubt he could replicate if not exceed those numbers this season.

I feel like people still underrate Kamara...I've seen rankings with Barkley and Hunt above him and that's just crazy. Call me crazy but I wouldn't even take David Johnson above Kamara.

I don't think you are crazy. David Johnson has only had one breakout season then missed all of last year so to me they are the same as far as production so far. I'm not a fan of Hunt, his touches went way down for some reason as the year progressed and Barkley is a rookie so there is still alot of guessing and assuming with him.

What do you think of my strategy for my upcoming draft? I don't think I'm taking a WR until the 5th or 6th round.

To me the RB position is so weak and if you don't load up on them early it's SLIM pickings in the later rounds. I like a lot more later round WR's then I do RB's and last year I was easily able to stream WR's throughout the year. ( Finished with the #1 seed but sadly came in 2nd, champ had Gurley )

A mock draft I did lead me to this team:

Aaron Rodgers
Todd Gurley
Christian McCaffery
Michael Crabtree
Chris Hogan
Jerrick McKinnon
Zack Ertz

WR are very weak, but for a 10 man PPR league every other spot is loaded.

I personally like to hold off on qb...I'd much rather pair a top tier wr with a rb in the first two rounds. You can get good value from guys like Patrick Mahomes, Alex Smith, and Big Ben in later rounds...

I like the McKinnon pick, he's going to be a stud in that offense. Not high on Crabtree or Hogan though.

AB is supposedly hurt , Bell will have big year for me
