Call me crazy but I'd take Cam in round one before guys like Jordy Nelson, certainly before D. Freeman, even before Dez.

Who is going to throw Dez the football next year? Romo seems like he's about 50 years old and he's coming off an injury.
Todd Gurley? Bust written all over him. He had 5 good games this season, doesn't catch passes and plays for a bad team.

Some of these guys I don't agree with true... But Cam in the first? Theres at least 13 or 14 Qbs you can roll with as a starter and feel comfortable IMO. Truth is WRs will be the theme next year but no one likes starting at a disadvantage so they will try to find a RB (freeman, peterson) to feel comfortable. When both shouldn't be first rounders. Its why I think Brandin Cooks will jump into the first round, if the team retains Payton and Brees.

And for whoever said Hopkins was prime candidate for let down? What more could go wrong for him to have a let down?! He's succeeded with no QB, no RB and dominates.... He's the 3rd best player on the board next year.

Here's what I might be looking at:

1-3 Antonio, Julio, ODB - that will probably be most of the drafts

4-5 Leveon, Deandre - Bell is the best bet for 325+ at RB and Deandre is incredible.

6-12 here it gets dicier

Marshall (Age)
Gurley (Stud talent bad offense)
Dez (still a stud)
Peterson (age and he doesn't catch the ball)
ARob - probably the 6th or 7th pick
Gronk - need I say more?
AJ Green


The guys competing for spots in the top 12 will be Demaryius (unknown QB), Freeman (nice ppr but not a great talent, one year wonder?) ,David Johnson (depends on what he does the next 2-4 games), Cooks (but I very much prefer him in the second),

QB's will go later than ever next year. TE's will have their usual 4th - 5th round run except for Gronk and Reed. WR's will go crazy like we've never seen it before. That's just my thoughts.

All of this is fun talk but if you look at the thread predicting this yrs draft some were arguing whether Charles or lacy should go #1. If you look at last yrs predictions it will make you laugh.one thing for certain...... Things will change.

Charles was having a great season before he got hurt. Not saying he should've been the No. 1 pick but he wasn't a mistake in the first round. He was just one of the roughly 8,547 running backs who got hurt this season. Never seen a year like this one where one position was so completely and utterly decimated by injuries. Tim Hightower becoming a legit playoff star after being out of the league for four years was one of the most insane things we may ever see in fantasy.

Then again Josh Freeman looked a helluva lot better yesterday than Tom Brady so I'm pretty sure everything has gotten flipped on its head.

Interesting Gurley taken 3rd. Appears to be PPR, based upon the 1st round WR dominance and I am assuming Nikita Whitlock was a placeholder in the 3rd round, though I am not sure for who.

Not that it is completely out of line, but I believe that was Kay Adams who took Gurley, she's from St. Louis, so that might answer the Gurley question.

As far as the Whitlock pick, could only imagine it's for Ezekiel Elliott, possibly Derrick Henry.

It wasn't Kay. She wasn't in the draft.
