Adam Clanton
Best pick: J.K. Dobbins, 5th round
Worst pick: Bills D/ST, 8th round
Where to begin. First off, I philosophically disagree with taking a QB in round 1, even given we are a 6-point touchdown league. Then you follow that up with another QB in the 10th and ANOTHER QB in the 15th? Three QBs? Defense in the 8th? Also not a huge fan of Hill in the 3rd considering others on the board but Godwin and Sutton should steady the WR room. A healthy Dobbins in the 5th will produce value if healthy but other than that, a lot of questions about these picks. Of course I must note that Adam is the reigning champion of the league so he’s definitely got the scoreboard there. I must also note I very much dislike this draft.
Grade: D-
Joe George
Best pick: DK Metcalf, 6th round
Worst Pick: Darnell Mooney, 5th round
I’ll give Joe a break in that the 5 spot makes it tough to make the rest of your picks, especially when you decided to go WR. Swift was a good value in the 2nd but after that I have a lot of questions about every other pick. I think Mooney could produce but feels like a Bears homer pick with other safer WR options on the board. Metcalf was radioactive in this draft but picking him up in the 6th is good value even though he’s got nothing at QB. I assume his baby was spitting up on him during rounds 8-11.
Grade: C-
Adam Wexler
Best Pick: Jahan Dotson, 13th round
Worst Pick: Russell Wilson, 9th round
Once again I’m philosophically opposed to QBs in the 1st round but who’s to argue with Pat Mahomes in a 6-point TD league. I like Gabe Davis and Dameon Pierce. They are both players I like but slight reaches relative to ADP and rankings. Wilson in the 9th is fine- if you didn’t already go QB in the 1st. The TE situation is shaky but you can stream there so I won’t complain too much. Picking up Dotson in the 13th is the perfect type of dart throw that can eventually pay dividends. A lot to like but a lot to question here.
Grade: C
Ross Villarreal
Best Pick: Miles Sanders, 6th round
Worst Pick: Kenny Golladay, 12th Round
I didn't really want to take a WR at #7 but it was an awkward spot and Kupp is pretty high on everyone's boards. Etienne and Barkley are big rolls of the dice that could pay off or could underperform due to injury history. I like the pick of Ertz late at TE, especially with DeAndre Hopkins missing time at the beginning of the season. Going all-in on the Giants WRs late is certainly a curious move, and the Mike Davis pick could just be a wasted throwaway depending on Dobbins health. Overall it feels like an uneven squad with question marks all over the place.
Grade: C+
Michael Connor
Best pick: Marquez Valdes-Scantling, 10th round
Worst pick: Breece Hall, 4th round
The talent is there but I have reservations about Najee Harris’ production due to a lack of competent QB and offensive line play. Same with Breece Hall. I do like the WR picks and picking up Valdes-Scantling in the 10th could pay off huge, and Nyheim Hines is an instant RB1 if something happens to Taylor. Hunter Henry and Russell Gage are sneaky late round picks. RB could be an issue but a mostly balanced draft and a competent draft overall.
Grade: B-
Trey Campbell
Best pick: Terry McLaurin, 4th round
Worst Pick: Rex Burkhead, 13th round
There’s really not a lot to complain about here. I can see logic in every pick and like the late pickups of a couple of young WRs who could produce. I could nitpick the QB spot but Trey Lance could easily be a top 5-10 QB with his run production, but with a 6 point TD scoring system that doesn’t matter as much. Kyler Murray comfortably at value. He went a touch early on Kicker and Rex Burkhead was just lighting a pick on fire but overall, a good draft from Trey.
Grade: A-
Matt Thomas
Best pick: Adam Thielen, 9th round
Worst pick: Kareem Hunt, 6th round
To take a WR with your first pick and still end up with solid RBs was quite a feat by Mr. Thomas, as both Montgomery and Fournette should produce. Kittle is good value too, as is Adam Thielen who is an absolute steal in the 8th round. I’d rather not take a running back who’s 2nd on the depth chart in the 6th round but if Chubb goes down you’ve got a top 10 RB. Taking a 2nd QB in the 10th feels like way too much missed value at other spots but overall, solid team and a solid draft. I’m very sad Dr. Roto has coached Matt into a competent fantasy player. See you in hell, Doctor.
Grade: B+
Chris Gordy
Best pick: Cook/Mixon, Round 1/2
Worst Pick: Ravens D/ST
First off, the guy nabbed two stud RBs at the turn that could easily run the league. But then you start reading the rest of the roster and start getting a craving for some red beans and rice with andouille. Not surprisingly, Gordy went all in on the Saints who are projected by Vegas to win 8.5 games. I actually do like Jameis as an insurance policy and do think Michael Thomas will bounce back with a big year. Two defenses doesn’t make sense and Lamar Jackson may have been taken a touch early, but overall not too shabby.
