Re: 2023 DobberHockey Fantasy Football League Tier I: Season 13
1.9 - Nick Chubb - I was looking at one of Bijan Robinson, Saquan Barkley or Nick Chubb here. Considering the other two went just before my pick, that made this choice easier. I considered Cooper Kupp here as well, who went right after my pick, but I try to avoid a WR in the 1st round unless it's Jefferson.
2.20 - Garrett Wilson - I was really hoping for Henry to fall to me in the 2nd round but when that didnt happen, I didnt really like the other RBs in this area so I went with my BPA and that was Wilson.
3.37 - Breece Hall - Again, I got sniped on my target just before my pick when Stevenson went a couple before my pick. It was down to Hall or JK Robbins (who coincidentally went right after this pick) for me. I prefer Hall, who I know has some competition but to me he's still a legit starter on what should be a very good offense this year.
4.48 - Joe Burrows - I figured the QB run would start soon and I wanted one of the better ones so I grabbed JB while he was sitting there.
5.65 - Darren Waller - IF he can stay healthy, he could be money for me here. He's already fitting in well in his new offensive system. Health, as always, is the concern.
6.76 - Mike Williams - See Darren Waller as far as the health concerns. I think Herbert is going to take a big step this year with his new offensive coordinator and Williams could be a big benefactor of that.
7.93 - George Pickens - I considered AJ Dillon here but felt Pickens upside was just too high pass up. I am at that stage in the draft when I am looking for upside and breakout status. Pickens could be that guy this year.
8.104 - Tank Bigsby - We are into that bench player area/bye week guys and looking for upside still. I was going to snag Achane but as usual, he went a couple picks before mine came up so I went with the next guy I like a lot for potential to have a big rookie season. FWIW, this is the one pick in my Yahoo grade that Yahoo didn't like at this point in the draft LOL! We'll see.
9.121 - JuJu Smith-Schuster - Has the potential to be a big steal at this point in the draft if they can get him the ball.
10.132 - Dalton Schultz - At this point, I am looking for insurance for Waller if he goes down. Schultz could be a nice security blanket for Stroud, especially in the red zone.
11.149 - Tyler Boyd - Looking for a bit of a match with Burrows. Boyd's a 3rd option in that offense but he's still money for 750-800 yds and 5TDs. Good insurance at this point in the draft.
12.160 - Roschon Johnson - Honestly, at this point in the draft, I am just looking for depth and potential for a surprise. I dont know what will happen with the Bears backfield this year but the research I did had Johnson as RB2 on the depth chart there over Foreman. At this point, it may work out.
13.177 - Miami D - Grabbed the best available D to work on completing the starting roster.
14.188 - Jake Elliot K - See 13.177
15.205 - Jordan Love - Figured I'd grab a backup QB for insurance purposes, and to me he was the best available, but wont surprise me if this turns into a streaming spot for me.
Surprsingly got an A+ from Yahoo grades for this draft. I cant say I was happy with all my picks. There was lots of times I had my eyes on guys I really wanted, only to see the gone a pick or two before it got to me. Probably happened to most of us in this draft a few times. Time will tell how this roster works out. Fantasy football is such a gong show from week to week. I draft not to get relegated as much as to win.
