My dynasty player the last few years was Dalvin Cook but I'm changing it to Jonathan Taylor going forward. I might still be able to get Cook with my first round pick.

Jefferson & as much as I want to say Lamb I'm going to say Murray. I'd rather have the get it and forget QB and stream my WR2.

Murray/JT/JJ gives you the foundational pieces for your roster at QB/RB/WR that truly allows you to take best player available at the RB/WR/TE.

Unless it's a 2QB or super flex league, Lamb is worth more draft capital than Murray

Clearly it can go either way. For me, Lamb leaves a lot to be desired. He finished as WR22 and only surpassed his season average of 14 twice in his last 9 games. It sounds good that Cooper is now gone but that could easily go the other way as well. He will now be double teamed constantly. For that reason I don't think Lamb is a top 10ish WR thus easier to replace than a topish 5 fsntasy QB. You will find several WRs late and on WW that will come within a couple FP/PG of Lamb. Whereas to get within a couple FP/PG from Murray you likely will have to get lucky and pick the right late QB to avoid the musical QB stream.

I'm not a fan of keeper leagues. I'd rather do full on dynasty or full on redraft. Keeper leagues are somewhere in the middle and never liked it because it's hard to formulate a game plan because you don't know who/what is available. Which is another reason I'd rather have Murray over Lamb.

Murray/JJ/JT

he likely could go Dalvin in Round 1 and Lamb in round 2 to keep his team together and look like this. Even if Lamb is gone in round 2 there would be a bevy of WRs to choose from. Murray almost certainly wouldn't be there.

Murray likely gone by his pick in round 2 so what does he look to draft in round 2? Reach for next QB? Add Flex? TE?

Murray is going 2-3 rounds after Lamb . My logic is going by ADP . Sure , I'll reach for someone I like higher than their ADP . But I haven't seen a draft where Lamb goes after Murray

Good points from you both, I'm glad I have a few more weeks to make up my mind.

I have yet to mock anything up. So with your info and my lack of experience in a keeper leagues may change my mind.

In the end, I still feel the value of Murray over his replacement will likely be greater than Lamb or his replacement. Though I say all of that without know who or what may be available so...

Correct, it's all relative to who everyone else's keepers are and the positions that are the most thinned out .

Week 1 is best week to play DFS as players prices are low. For those of you that play who is your week 1 bargains?

rate my team. 1st time I'm playing fantasy. 10 man, .5 ppr, 2 flex spots

qb - Jalen Hurts
wr - Tyreek Hill, Diontae Johnson
rb - Johnathan Taylor
te - Dawson Knox
flex 1 - Najee Harris
flex 2 - Leonard Fournette

Bn - Dameon Price, Darnell Mooney, Robert Woods, Kareem Hunt, David Njoku, Ryan Tannehill

did I do ok for a noob?

You are a little weak at wr especially for a 10 team league, however you have a stud fantasy qb. Hurts was one of the top scorers before he hurt his ankle last year.

Youre fine at QB. Without seeing other teams, your strength at RB should offset your mediocre WR, if they perform as projected. Confused how your league let you get both JT and Najee. Im assuming you picked top 3, if not #1, to get JT and so if Najee and Fournette both made it to the 2-3 turn, then you turned lemons into lemonade to get the WR you did unless your league is terribad with people just picking their favorite players from their favorite teams.

just drafted my 12 man ppr squad, how is it? Where can I improve most? I want to get another stud by packaging a few good players

qb-burrow
rb-Ekeler, Barkley, Elliot, Pierce, Gordon, mattison, allgheir
wr- waddle, juju, aiyuk, nico collins, isaiah mckenzie
te- Kelce
def 49ers
kicker- succop (tb)

I'm really feeling like I should package a couple players for a higher tier rb or wr?

Like one guy is loaded at the wr position with chase, lamb, godwin and andrews but scrubs are rb.

another guy missed first 10 minutes ago of draft and he auto picked Najee Harris and Deebo, rest of his is Elijah Mitchell, aj brown, Higgins, Mooney and ertz really.
