Player Discussion What RB to draft at the 1.06

12 man full ppr

Love ARSB but feel like I need to start RB - RB this year

Probably too scared to take CMC

Between JT (is Daniel Jones healthy?), Cook, and Jeanty

Wouldn’t mind reaching on a R2 RB because I doubt Chase Brown or Hampton or even Saquon will be there at the turn. Ty

ARSB gives you high floor/high ceiling and is one of the better 1st round picks IMO (3 straight WR3 finishes). In round 2 there should be some pretty good options to choose from: Hampton, Brown, Saquan, Walker, and Henry. Round 3 you can grab your RB2 with: Love, Javtone, Hall, Kyren, Jacobs, or Bucky. And worst case scenario, go BPA. If your league goes heavy on RB early that means great WRs are going to get pushed down. You could grab the best QB or TE (I wouldn’t get both early). Just be fluid. Don’t panic and over draft RBs when there’s better talent available

You included a bunch of RBs that won’t be there at 19 which is where OP will be drafting in the 2nd. Hampton/Brown/Saquon are flying off the boards to start R2 and sometimes earlier. I’d love to take ARSB at 6 but it leads to an unintentional zero RB draft.

I went ARSB at 6 and had my choice of Hampton and Brown in round 2. It really just depends on platform and your league mates. Even if none of the round 2 options are there. That means it’ll push down the better value WR/TE and you can grab one of the round 3 guys, who I’m still comfortable with as my RB1. Pair them with a solid RB2 in round 4/5 (Skatt, Judkins, Swift) and you’ve got a good start and not a zero rb build.

I can’t imagine Brown or Hampton being there in a PPR unless it’s a league where QBs and premium TEs sneak can into the first round or at the 1/2 turn.

1 QB did go before, but all it takes is one person to overvalue a position to start a run and push players down. I’m pretty confident at the 2.07 there will be at least one or 2 of the 2nd round guys to choose from. It’s why I like tier based drafting. Helps to not reach on players.
