Fun draft everyone.  The first round was fun.  I was in "Best Player Available" mode and ended up with 3 receivers and a QB. I really wanted to add a RB but the way the picks fell I didn't see the value there in round 1. Ended up with another WR at the end of round 2 but I thought the value was there for JSN.  Finally grabbed a RB in round 3 in Spears.  Hopefully the split with Pollard is close to 50/50.
 
I needed to piece together Defenses.  Hopefully LAC can get me past weeks 1 and 2 then I can ride KC the rest of the way.  I know almost nothing about Jacksonville DEF.  I just took them with the hope they bounce back this year and make the playoffs.  They will probably be my first cut for waiver.

Here are my favorite picks in each round:
 
Rd 1:  1.06 - Malik Nabers - Has potential top 10 WR talent.  Will get tons of targets in NYG offense. Would be clear WR1 most years.
 
Rd 2:  2.09 - J.J. McCarthy - Will need to wait a year but he is a first round pick if he isn't injured. Potential top 20 QB at 2.09 is great value.
 
Rd 3:  3.10 - Austin Ekeler - Top 30 RB at the end of the third round.
 
Rd 4:  4.01 - Christian Watson - Could easily be WR2 if the targets roll his way in crowded WR corps.  Should see most of the red zone action.  His upside is worth the risk here.
 
Rd 5:  5.08 - Dalton Kincaid - Listed as TE but plays the slot.  Could be Allen's favorite target.
 
Rd 6:  6.10 - Spencer Rattler - Only David Carr stands in his way to becoming a starting QB.  
 
Rd 7:  7.07 - Ja'Lynn Polk - NE #1 WR in round 7.  May be the steal of the draft.
 
Rd 8:  8.04 - Jermaine Burton - Million dollar body, 10 cent brain. Ultimate boom or bust, but the Boom could be loud!
 
Rd 9:  9.05 - Ricky Pearsel - Gets shot in chest, takes thug's gun and shots him with it.  Nothing more needs to be said.

Funny, when Jordan Addison was the best pick of the draft!

Or Derek Carr. David Carr never had a good enough o-line to stand anywhere, much less in someone's way!

Well, my favorite picks are different then Genes.  Here is what I see:
 
Round 1 - 1.03   Jayden Daniels
I mean it is the first round, all decent picks.   I think he has a large upside with rushing yards.
 
Round 2 - 2.02  Xavier Worthy
I actually had him as pick 10.   However, I didnt need another WR.  With Rashee Rice's long suspension/jail time and his ability to go deep, he could be the deep threat Hill used to present.   Honorable mention o JJ McCarthy who will be starting next year.
 
Round 3 - 3.04 Rico Dowdle   The dude is competing with Ezekiel Elliot whose good for about 2 yards a carry.    
 
Round 4 - 4.08 Jordan Addison coming off a 911 yards and 10 TD year.   Not sure why he was sill on the board.    
 
Round 5 - 5.05 Jordan Mason -   He looked good filling in last year and with Elijah Mitchell out, he is the clear #2 in SF now.  
 
Round 6 - 6.05 - Jacoby Brisset - Starting QB in the 6th round.  That is value!
 
Round 7 - 7.06  Jamieson Winston - What the hell is wrong with Deshaun Watson?   Does anyone think he will regain his form and/or not be hurt?
 
Round 8 - 8.03  Joshua Palmer - value pick with both Keenan Allen and Mike Williams gone, someone has to be the #1.    
 
Round 9 - 9.09  Mike Williams - if he is healthy, and Aaron Rodgers is healthy, could be in for a pretty good year easily outperforming 9.09 pick
