I had a tough time letting Saquon go with pick 10.. and my first time EVER (in 20 years of fantasy football I think) where I did not take an RB with pick 1, but picking 10th the top ones were gone, and I like Adams and the separation at WR with everyone else, thought was too good to pass up.

Would have taken Barkley at 2.03. At least an Eagles fan has to root for him all season :)

Filled up on Robinsons at this turn. There is only one more Robinson out there...Demarcus...for now, I will pass on him :)

Booo -- I was hoping Lockett would be available on the swing Rich... I was torn between him and Hunt.

Blind résumé time. Player A: 19.4 fantasy PPG, 165.3 pass YPG, 72.8 rush YPG — Player B: 23.0 fantasy PPG, 229.8 pass YPG, 68.0 rush YPG. Fairly similar, right? You’d rather have Player B, obviously, but it’s within the same ballpark. Well, Player B is Jalen Hurts in the four games he was a starter as a rookie last season. Player A represents Lamar Jackson’s final four games he started as a rookie in 2018; you know, before he won the MVP (and everyone’s fantasy league for them) in 2019. :wink:

Claudio, I had 3 WR's on my sheet but went with Lockett only because of Wilson in SEA. We'll see how it plays out.

I've had Lockett before. He's terrific but has been a bit inconsistent. That being said, he was my next pick also. He's got top 10 talent.

I had Fields queued up since round 11. I just wasn’t sure when I should take him. He was one of those payers that just making it back to me and when he came back again, I knew had to take him there. I know the feeling, hanging out in the middle of the pack you get players sniped from the front and from the back.

When I heard that the Patriots released Cam Newton the first thought that came into my head was "Wrigs just got his second QB". Your patience was rewarded big time.

Wrigs you're basing a lot of "Hall of Fame" talk for guys that haven't done much in the NFL :D :D :D

I already had who I wanted, maybe I'll lose because I drafted the kicker a round early. What I can say for certain, I lost a couple of games last year, solely based on kicker and defensive points. I'm sure I'll make an adjustment or two before week one, or a week or two into the schedule.
