2017 dynasty superflex rankings11/18/2023 He’s a quick, big-bodied receiver who could easily push for 100+ targets. With Doug Baldwin out the door, Metcalf should immediately start opposite Tyler Lockett. Metcalf has one of the best opportunities available to a rookie wideout this season. I am thrilled to land him at this point of the draft. Montgomery looks like an immediate RB2 and could very well be the most valuable running back from this draft class when all is said and done. He has soft hands and offers significantly more passing game upside than Jordan Howard ever did. A tackle-breaking machine with elite open field ability, Montgomery can both punish and elude would-be defenders. The only player standing in his way is former Seattle Seahawk Mike Davis, a back who may have been an upgrade on the 2018 version of Howard but is an inferior talent to the rookie from Iowa State. With 250 carries vacated by Jordan Howard, David Montgomery could reach workhorse-like touches as a rookie. – Mark Leipold David Montgomery (RB – CHI) However, with more competition for touches, I’m taking the slight unknown here with a more locked in workload, and I am willing to assume both that he can handle a full workload and that he is atletic enough to operate with relative efficiency. Sanders would be a fine pick as well because he is a more known commodity in terms of his resume as a workhorse at the college level (once Saquon Barkley left, anyway), his athleticism, and the context of his offense, which is likely better than Oakland’s. Jacobs also has the benefit of a less crowded backfield, so he should enter as a workhorse from day one. All we know for sure is that he’s generally a favorite of the film grinders, and the NFL scouting complex was infatuated by him as well, resulting in him being the only first-round RB taken in 2019. Jacobs is much more of an unknown, given that he didn’t carry a full workload at any point during his college career, and is a relative unknown in the atleticism department. This is a pretty easy choice between either Joshua Jacobs or Miles Sanders, and it’s razor thin between them for the 1.01 in a 1QB setting (both over Harry because early-round RBs almost always accrue value in their rookie season whereas WRs are much less certain). Harry is a cornerstone piece who can anchor my dynasty team for years to come. The Patriots should have no trouble utilizing his skills. Harry is a versatile receiver who can play inside and out. He lands in a prime spot in a New England offense that should offer him opportunity to get on the field early as the receiving corps is pretty thin behind Julian Edelman. I am happy grabbing Harry here as I have him as my top wide receiver in the class. I was hoping to see Haskins drop one more spot (I know Kyler Murray isn’t realistically sliding here if my leaguemates know what they are doing). While I can’t predict the future and wish nothing but the best for Murray, I’m happy to get an above average pocket passer as my first selection. Happy to see Haskins here as I worry that Murray’s style of play and size could lead to injury issues. The Cardinals also showed he is the future of the franchise by selecting him first overall and shipping Josh Rosen to Miami, so you can also make him the future of yours. Murray’s ability to utilize Rich Hribar’s “Konami Code” - his rushing ability - is just icing on the cake for fantasy purposes. While Murray didn’t have a large body of work to draw from in college, he showed his amazing playmaking ability in his sole year as a starter. In Superflex or 2QB formats, Murray should be the consensus top rookie selected. Here are their picks and reasoning over two mocked rounds.Ĭomplete early rookie fantasy football mock drafts with our free simulator Round 1 With the growth in popularity of 2QB and Superflex leagues, we thought it was important to show readers where our writers feel the incoming class of QBs will come off the board in 2019 dynasty rookie drafts. We’ll follow that up with a look at the first two rounds of a rookie draft in 2QB formats. Last week we asked our writers to mock two rounds of a rookie draft in 1QB leagues.
