DON’T LOSE YOUR MONEY

QB: Take ONE quarterback the entire draft… only draft one of the following top 7:
1) Aaron Rodgers – Rd. 2 (not in Rd. 1!)
2) Russell Wilson – Rd. 4-7 (no earlier)
3) Drew Brees – Rd. 5-7 (do in Rd. 4 if run on QBs)
4) Tom Brady – Rd. 5-7 (do in Rd. 4 if run on QBs)
5) Carson Wentz – Rd. 6-7 (do in Rd. 5 if run on QBs… I don’t think Rd. 4 is feasible…
but, if need QB, and rest are keepers already, go reach in Rd. 4)
6) Deshaun Watson – Rd. 5-7 (do in Rd. 5, no earlier, unless no choice in Rd. 4… I am a
doubter from nine games of NFL experience)
7) Cam Newton – Rd. 5-7 (same circumstances as Watson… too inconsistent)
Basically, NEED one of these QBs to be successful in this league since pass TD is 5 pts. each
(standard is 4 pts.). I MUST DRAFT one of these 7 QBs in likely the first 8 rounds,
approximately, to be successful… do NOT wait and miss out on one of these; season would be
bad. If (no less than) 4 of these QBs are gone by the 3rd round, you must draft the next QB,
according to the list above, in the 4th round and not risk missing out on being a contender.

RB: My list of RBs, in order, are as follows (additional notes are after list):
1) Le’Veon Bell (Rd. 1, likely a keeper already)
2) David Johnson (Rd. 1, likely a keeper already)
3) Saquon Barkley (Rd. 1, around pick #4-8 likely… if fall to #9, grab him)
4) Todd Gurley II (Rd. 1, he’s a steal any later than #6, if not a keeper)
5) Kareem Hunt (Rd. 1, a steal any later than #11, if not a keeper)
6) Ezekiel Elliott (Rd. 1, a steal any later than #11, if not a keeper)
7) Leonard Fournette (Rd. 2, a steal any later than pick #20)
8) Alvin Kamara (Rd. 2, overrated for me… not a believer… GRAB if available in Rd. 2…
very, very iffy in Rd. 1, would much, much rather have #1 - #6 RB in Rd. 1… also would
rather pick AB, Hopkins, or Julio if available; if top 6 RB gone/keepers, and top 3 WR
gone/keepers for my pick in Rd. 1, take Kamara above Fournette for Rd. 1 pick as likely
could get Fournette soon in Round 2)
9) Melvin Gordon (Rd. 2, somewhat comfortable picking at #12 in Rd. 2… should really,
really consider WRs AB, Hopkins, Julio, Odell, Michael Thomas above Melvin Gordon
since a PPR league)
10) Dalvin Cook (not a Rd. 2 pick for me… likely will be chosen in Rd. 2 later)
11) Devonta Freeman (not a Rd. 2 pick for me… likely will be chosen in Rd. 2 later)
 12) Jordan Howard – Chi (not as high on him as I was earlier, but comfortable Rd. 4 choice,
if there still, which isn’t too likely; definitely pick a top 8, maybe, possibly top 9 WR
before Jordan Howard, but good consideration for Rd. 4 pick)
13) Jerick McKinnon – SF (definitely different tier, Rd. 4 pick a bit of a reach, but a steal in
Rd. 5, so I guess I could pick him in Rd. 4 if the top 9 WR are gone)
14) Lamar Miller – Hou (My breakout candidate… feel really, really, really good about him
in Rd. 5, a bit of a reach in Rd. 4, but be happy if I need take him in Rd. 4; FOR SURE
take him if available in Rd. 5)
15) Christian McCaffrey (for me, overrated, likely will go in Rd. 3, I don’t want to choose
him ANY EARLIER than Rd. 5)
16) Jay Ajayi (Rd. 6 feels right here)
17) LeSean McCoy (Rd. 5 if no other options from top 12 at WR, possible, but highly
unlikely Rd. 4 if a run on RBs and just feel like he is best option out of given RB and WR
available)
18) Joe Mixon (Rd. 5-6 feels)
19) Kenyan Drake – Mia (Rd. 6 feels)
20) Derrick Henry (Rd. 6-7 feels)
21) Tarik Cohen – Chi (Rd. 8 feels)
22) Ronald Jones II – TB (Rd. 8-9 feels)
23) Chris Thompson – Was (Rd. 8-9)
24) Alex Collins – Bal (Rd. 7-9 feels)
25) Theo Riddick – Det (Rd. 8-10 feels)
26) Rashaad Penny – Sea (Rd. 8-10 feels)
27) Sony Michel – NE (Rd. 9-11 feels)
28) Dion Lewis – Ten (Rd. 8-10 feels)
29) Bilal Powell – NYJ (Rd. 9-12 feels)
30) Tevin Coleman – Atl (Rd. 11-13 feels)
31) Marshawn Lynch – Oak (pretty much avoid unless available in like Rd. 11-12 or
something crazy)
32) Aaron Jones – GB (Rd. 9-11 feels)
33) Marlon Mack – Ind (BREAKOUT potentially a good pick in Rd. 8)
34) Royce Freeman – Den (Rd. 10-11 feels)
35) Mark Ingram – NO (Rd. 9-14 feels as handcuff - TD vulture)
36) Spencer Ware – KC (Rd. 9-12 as a handcuff – TD vulture)
37) Nick Chubb – Cle (Rd. 8,9-12 as new potential starting RB)
38) Duke Johnson Jr. – Cle (Rd. 9-12 feels)
39) T.J. Yeldon – Jax (Rd. 9-NOT DRAFT as a handcuff – AVOID… aka only draft as
handcuff)
40) James White – NE (Rd. 11-14… he’s from NE)
41) Giovani Bernard – Cin (Rd. 12-15 as handcuff – TD vulture)
42) Jaylen Samuels – Pit (RB, TE) (Rd. 11-16 as extra RB w/ TE versatility)
43) Devontae Booker – Den (Rd. 12-16 a ANOTHA ONE RB)
Note that a lot of the top 10-15 RB will be kept, so, must (pretty much) draft a RB in Rd. 1.
The Rd. 4 Pick is extremely vital as it will be an early Rd. 4 pick (#42), so, either pick up the top
4 QBs, top 8 WR, or top 12 (approximately) RB out of these lists. If minimal QBs have been
selected, then a top 12 RB or top 8 WR is the way to go; otherwise, Rd. 4 will have to be a QB as
can’t miss out on contention. If feel can wait on QB, look for top 8 WR, then, if none available,
go for top 12 RB. If minimal QBs selected and aforementioned listed RB and WR are ALLLLLL
gone, get that QB now because I am almost 110% sure there will be a run on QBs following
before I get to my Rd. 5 pick at #59. If take Howard, Miller, or McKinnon at #42, will need to
for sure pick QB in Rd. 5 HOPING VISCIOUSLY that one of my top 7 is still available.
Rd. 5 & Rd. 6 go off list for Best Available RB/WR to fill out WR and Flex Positions.
Rd. 2, pick #12 will either pick FOR SURE one of the top 6 RB, if available; otherwise, for RB,
look intently at whether my RBs 7, 8, and 9-ish-maybe (and current keeper situation in draft…
i.e. how many RB are actually available) are of more value to me than a top 3, maybe top 4,
possibly top 5 WR is worth more… keep in mind, if go RB @ #9, RB @ #12, TE in Rd. 3
(keeper) then likely a 2-4 QB @ #42 in Rd. 4, then first WR wouldn’t be chosen until pick #58 in
a PPR league (ewwww… don’t like that situation); GO OFF LIST OF TOP 12 PLAYERS IN
MY RANKINGS ON YAHOO AND PICK THE HIGHEST RANKED PLAYER ON LIST
THAT IS LEFT (HOPEFULLY GO RB THEN WR… HOPEFULLY)

Thus, in Rds. 1 - 5, really, really, really think about going:

Top 6 RB, Top 4 (5-ish) WR, TE, (Top 4-7) QB, Best RB/WR.

WR: My list of WRs, in order, are as follows (additional notes are after list):
1) Antonio Brown (Bruh, it’s AB… in a tier of his own… top 3 pick, duh)
2) DeAndre Hopkins (If he is still SOMEHOW available after #8, and top 6 RB all gone,
have to pick him)
3) Julio Jones (Rd. 2 for me, unless WRs & RBs gone quick, in weird situation, idk exactly,
it is 1:00 am… is likely picked in Rd. 1; if at #12, pick ASAP unless another top 6 RB
available)
4) Odell Beckham Jr. (Rd. 2, unless WRs & RBs gone quick, in weird situation, idk exactly,
it is 1:00 am … is likely picked in Rd. 1; if at #12, pick ASAP unless another top 6 RB
available)
5) Michael Thomas (Have my list…Highly possible Rd. 2, compare to RB 7-9…)
6) A.J. Green (Not picking in Rd. 2 I believe)
7) Amari Cooper (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
8) Keenan Allen (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
9) Davante Adams (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
10) Tyreek Hill (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
11) T.Y. Hilton (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
12) Mike Evans (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
13) Doug Baldwin (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
14) Larry Fitzgerald (Not unless Rd. 4 lol)
15) Josh Gordon (ehhhhh too high… probably like #21-#23)
16) JuJu Smith-Schuster
17) Stefon Diggs
18) Demaryius Thomas
19) Jarvis Landry
20) Golden Tate
21) Allen Robinson
22) Brandin Cooks
23) Adam Thielen
24) Marvin Jones – Det
25) Corey Davis
26) Chris Hogan
27) Michael Crabtree – Bal
28) Emmanuel Sanders
29) Alshon Jeffery (INJURED for about first 4 weeks)
30) Sammy Watkins – KC
31) Jamison Crowder
32) Marquise Goodwin – SF
33) Cooper Kupp – LAR
34) Robby Anderson – NYJ
35) Robert Woods – LAR
36) Pierre Garcon – SF
37) Randall Cobb (bounce back year? Rd. 7-ish, more-8 to Rd. 9)
38) Devin Funchess – Car
39) Julian Edelman (suspended for like 4 games)
40) Nelson Agholor (good pick around Rd. 8-10, more towards 8)
41) Will Fuller – Hou
42) Jordy Nelson – Oak
43) Kenny Stills - Mia
44) Sterling Shepard
 45) Kelvin Benjamin – Buf
46) Devante Parker – Mia
47) Allen Hurns – Dal
48) Kenny Golladay – Det
49) D.J. Moore – Car
50) Rishard Matthews - Ten

TE: Keep Rob Gronkowski, the #21 best player according to the rankings we are going by, thus
taking away my third-round pick, which is perfectly fine with me as he is valued greatly with my
original pick at (what would be) #29.

TE is set 100%... do NOT draft any other TE the whole draft. 😊

D: Since starting only one defender, and I feel comfortable drafting one of them between Rds. 9-
12 or later, here is the list of 11 defenders to choose from:
1) Luke Kuechly (Car – LB)
2) Bobby Wagner (Sea – LB)
3) C.J. Mosley (Bal – LB)
4) Telvin Smith (Jax – LB)
5) Kwon Alexander (TB – LB)
6) Deion Jones (Atl – LB)
7) Sean Lee (Dal – LB)
8) Khalil Mack (Oak – DE)
9) J.J. Watt (Hou – DE)
10) Zach Brown (Was – LB)
11) Christian Kirksey (Cle – LB)

K: For rounds 13-16, here is a list of Kickers I could/should draft:

 1) Stephen Gostkowski - NE
2) Justin Tucker – Bal
3) Wil Lutz – NO
4) Greg Zuerlein – LAR
5) Matt Bryant – Atl
6) Jake Elliot - Phi
7) Chris Boswell - Pit
8) Matt Prater – Det
9) Harrison Butker – KC
10) Dan Bailey – Dal
11) Mason Crosby – GB
12) Robbie Gould – SF

DEF: Will list the more elite DEF; if don’t get one of the following in Rd. 9-14, wait until very
end to nab one… somewhere
1) Jacksonville
2) Philadelphia
3) Minnesota
4) Los Angeles (Rams)
5) Denver

Notes:
 Note that a lot of the top 10-15 RB will be kept, so, must (pretty much) draft a RB in Rd.
1.

 Rd. 2, pick #12 will either pick FOR SURE one of the top 6 RB, if available; otherwise,
for RB, look intently at whether my RBs 7, 8, and 9-ish-maybe (and current keeper
situation in draft… i.e. how many RB are actually available) are of more value to me than
a top 3, maybe top 4, possibly top 5 WR is worth more… keep in mind, if go RB @ #9,
RB @ #12, TE in Rd. 3 (keeper) then likely a 2-4 QB @ #42 in Rd. 4, then first WR
wouldn’t be chosen until pick #58 in a PPR league (ewwww… don’t like that situation);
GO OFF LIST OF TOP 12 PLAYERS IN MY RANKINGS ON YAHOO AND PICK
 THE HIGHEST RANKED PLAYER ON LIST THAT IS LEFT (HOPEFULLY GO RB
THEN WR… HOPEFULLY)

 Keep Rob Gronkowski, the #21 best player according to the rankings we are going by,
thus taking away my third-round pick, which is perfectly fine with me as he is valued
greatly with my original pick at (what would be) #29.
TE is set 100%... do NOT draft any other TE the whole draft. 😊

 The Rd. 4 Pick is extremely vital as it will be an early Rd. 4 pick (#42), so, either pick up
the top 4 QBs, top 8 WR, or top 12 (approximately) RB out of these lists. If minimal QBs
have been selected, then a top 12 RB or top 8 WR is the way to go; otherwise, Rd. 4 will
have to be a QB as can’t miss out on contention. If feel can wait on QB, look for top 8
WR, then, if none available, go for top 12 RB. If minimal QBs selected and
aforementioned listed RB and WR are ALLLLLL gone, get that QB now because I am
almost 110% sure there will be a run on QBs following before I get to my Rd. 5 pick at
#59. If take Howard, Miller, or McKinnon at #42, will need to for sure pick QB in Rd. 5
HOPING VISCIOUSLY that one of my top 7 is still available.

o Basically, NEED one of these QBs to be successful in this league since pass TD is

 Rd. 5 & Rd. 6 go off list for Best Available RB/WR to fill out WR and Flex Positions.

Thus, in Rds. 1 - 5, really, really, really think about going:

Top 6 RB, Top 4 (5-ish) WR, TE, (Top 3-7) QB, Best RBs/WRs
