16 Team PPR New keeper (keep any 3)

[Rodge]

First of all I would like to thank everyone who took the him to read this Thread.

I'm trying to figure out my draft strategy for an upcoming Keeper I'm in. The break down is as follows

16 team PPR everything else standard.

1 QB
1 RB
2 WR
1 TE
1 K
1 D

I have the 3rd overall pick and am thinking about take Luck or Rogers because of the 3:1 ratio of RB/WR to QB, is this silly, should I get an Elite RB (Bell) or WR (Dez) because of how high I am? Any advice would be amazing.

Elite RBs are few and far between, there will only at max be 32 QBs taken so I would hold until Rd 3.

I would also grab an elite RB at 3rd overall. There should be plenty of excellent QBs in the 3rd - 4th round.

If Bell or Lacy are there for you at 3rd, take one of them and smile.

I like the high end QB here. In a keeper league, I want to select a rock for my franchise and QB's are my preference. There is SOOO much variance on RB's from year to year including wearing down, injuries, talent around them, etc. In a 1 year draft I probably take the best RB. In this format, the top QB's are rarely available post draft in the leagues I've played in, however there will be new RB talent coming in every year.

RBs careers are so short I would go for QB with your earliest pick. They have much longer careers and way more stable/consistent year to year for me.

[Rodge]

I'm still unsure. If Bell is still there i might have to take him, if not. Do I take Luck? IS there someone ahead of Luck as a keeper / franchise QB?

In a dynasty, durability is a big factor, so I, too, would go QB. If this was a 1 year, RB would be the way I would go. You need to get more bang out of your buck here long-term.

Don't go QB at 3rd overall, this is a recipe for a down year.

You have to go with an RB that is a 3-down back than can get some catches. Bell, Lacy, Charles, Peterson, Lynch....you get any one of those 5 (in order) and you should be laughing.

Is this a basic league scoring? If it does. take Luck and don't look back. If there is different scoring that rewards RB/WR touchdowns for 6 and QB touchdowns only worth 4... take the top RB.

I would go Luck because I think he could be a dominant QB for the next decade or more. But taking him may well mean a down year for you because you aren't going to like what's left for RB/WR at 30 and 35. If you go Luck, you might just punt the year (sorry) and draft for young high-upside WRs and RBs. One of Evans, Benjamin, or Hopkins could will be there; Watkins and Cooper should certainly be. I would also load up on RBs with long-term upside.

If you don't go Luck, I think your other choices are Bell, Lacy, and if you are a gambler, Beckham. If you go this route,you may want to grab Bridgewater, Winston, or Mariota as your back up QB.
