There’s been a lot of talk about how there’s not a clear number one skill position player in this draft, but I disagree. Now imagine if he’s good! Wesley Hitt/Getty Images While another quarterback in this class may end up being better for longer than Willis in real or fantasy terms, if nothing else, Willis will get you fantasy points as long he plays. Beyond that, the Combine revealed that teams love his brain, too. It’s possible Willis is more Hurts than Allen, but I think he’s better than Hurts, and that being the case, he’s worth the risk because his floor as a starter should be extremely high. Long story short: value points now over points later. It’s cheaper and easier to roll with a find-and-replace system for QB2s than to try to find two long-term guys the benefits someone like Willis brings can help you win a title during the Biden Administration what he’s doing in a decade.
#2021 DYNASTY ROOKIE RANKINGS SUPERFLEX FULL#
Some important context here is that I think your window should be a full season away at most, and you shouldn’t worry too much about whether the quarterback, in particular, is still going to be a star 10 years later. Allen is a unicorn, but Jalen Hurts is not, and he’s a good fantasy quarterback whose only real problem is that he might not be a decent enough real one to start actual games, but as long as he does, he’s gold. To wit, I didn’t draft Josh Allen, but during his rookie year I traded for him, and then traded Allen and two first round picks for… Sam Darnold. The lesson of the last few years of dynasty football is to draft and stick with the running quarterbacks. As someone who has the first two rookie draft picks in his main league, I’m currently taking Willis first and I’m done trying to talk myself out of it. Then, 20 minutes later, I just bit the bullet and put him 1. After the combine, I initially put him at 2. On the first draft of this list I had Willis at 7. Follow these rankings instead: Icon Sportswire via Getty Images I’m already guessing most of the quarterbacks I have listed will go higher than I listed them, but that’s not my problem. I could see 3 or 4 these 10 guys going with the first overall pick, and beyond that, I could see this shanking out in virtually any order. The top two guys you see are the top two guys I’d take.Īnd that’s the main story of this year: It’s good but not great, with ample room for interpretation. And just know I have the top 2 picks in my main league and 5 of the first 13, so this is not purely an intellectual exercise. I’m still learning about all these players, but I’ve had my eye on the first round for a long enough time that I’m as confident as I can be before the NFL Draft, which will necessarily change parts of this list around, perhaps even drastically. Since I’m agnostic about players and teams, I’m focused only on projected NFL production and I’m not swayed by much else.Īnyhow I’m starting small, with my top 12 prospects for Superflex Rookie Drafts. Wait, what? Am I not supposed to say that? Too late, but you should know that it doesn’t seem to hurt me come rookie draft time-it helps, if anything. I’m starting small, with just the first round, because I’m not a college football guy.
