    Default Keeper league draft WR help

    Bit of a continuation of a recent earlier post.

    I play in a keep 5 PPR league (we start 4WRs) and I own the 1st two picks in the draft. Keepers are Julio, OBJ, Lamar Miller, David Johnson, and Golden Tate. Obviously I am taking Elliot #1.

    My question is with respect to the number 2 overall pick...I am likely to draft my 4th WR in that spot and just wondering about peoples take on who that should be....don't know all players available yet but I do know that both Devante Parker and Donte Moncrief will be available (I am dropping them) as well as the entire rookie WR class.

    Between those two and the incoming rookies....who would guys grab?

    Also really open to dropping down a few spots and picking up an extra pick later on...but for now let's assume I don't do that.

    I prefer Moncrief of the two with a healthy Luck set to come in this year. Tough to gauge them against the incoming class for me until camps open up and depth charts become a little more clearer. Is Kevin White available? He would likely be #1 WR to target for me if he wasn't stashed last season.

    I'm kind of with Golden, at this point, other than Elliott, I'm going for proven. Moncrief is my choice too, but I couldn't blame you for rolling with Parker.

    I roll Parker, his last 4 or 6 games when he was finally healthy were good. Figure in the freshman learning curve as a WR too. Throw in an actual HC who was an actual OC. Old baldy didn't call plays in green bay that was chubbys job.

    I like Moncrief over Parker, but not at the second overall spot. Given you have the first overall, entertaining trade talks in an effort to move down in the first and pick up an additional pick is a solid idea. Try for another first in 2017.

    As mentioned above, I would try to trade down. But if I had to choose between the two, I'm going Moncrief. Really think he breaks out this year in a big way

    I would go Moncrief over Parker, but I would be interested to see who other teams drop, then we can analyze this again.

    I actually stashed Gordon last year so I own him. Had sort of written him off as a guy worth keeping but obviously time to reassess. I have been burned by him before but if he returned to form, a Julio, OBJ, Gordon WR group would be scary good.

    Worth keeping over all Tate/Parker/moncrief as my 5th keeper? Or drafting as my 4th WR at #2 overall?

    If you know he’ll be there at 2nd ya. But think, you’ll get 2 of Moncreif, Parker, Tate, Gordon. I’d likely keep the highest ranked and go from there. Maybe try and see who the 1st overall guy is keeping, maybe he’ll keep a lot of WR so he won’t draft one.

    Personally, I’d keep Gordon if he stays clean throughout the offseason. He’s allowed to play in the pre-season I do believe so if you can wait, wait to see him play.

    I am also the "1st overall guy" and will be taking Elliot with that pick. So I can get 2 of those 4 wrs (one as my 5th keeper and one at #2 overall).

    Oh ya, forgot he was O-Ranked 7th. You’ll be fine getting Gordon unless he drafts out of left field, then you can grab Elliot.
