My first Round:Greg Ambrosius wrote:It's never too early to start talking about Draft Day in 2015, right?
Tom and I started the conversation last night on our STATS Fantasy Advantage as the two of us had a first round mock draft. Here's how we saw the first round for 2015:
1. Jamaal Charles 18.9 ppg in NFFC
2. Le’Veon Bell 23.9 ppg in NFFC
3. Matt Forte 23 ppg in NFFC
4. DeMarco Murray 23.2 ppg in NFFC
5. Eddie Lacy 17.2 ppg in NFFC (topped 20 in 6 of last 9 and topped 26 in 3 of last 4)
6. Demaryius Thomas 21.4 ppg in NFFC
7. Calvin Johnson 18.1 ppg in NFFC
8. Jordy Nelson 21.2 ppg in NFFC
9. Antonio Brown 24.3 ppg in NFFC (No. 1 WR in PPR this year)
10. Adrian Peterson (still a great player, just needs a new home)
11. Julio Jones 20.8 ppg in NFFC
12. Aaron Rodgers 32 ppg in NFFC (Luck at 34, Peyton at 30)
Others to consider – Arian Foster, Peyton, Luck, A.J. Green, Dez Bryant
Any thoughts on this? Of course, I gave Tom the first pick (doesn't he always get the first pick? ), so he took the odd-numbered picks and I took the even-numbered picks. Was a fun exercise. What's your thoughts on the first round of 2015? Inquiring minds want to know.
1. Antonio Brown (safest pick in all of fantasy and i know Bell is right there, but running backs are just never safe bets no matter what).. i'd rather guaranteed production no matter what (barring injury).
2. Leveon Bell.
3. D. Thomas (if manning doesn't retire)
4. Eddie Lacey
5. D. Murray if with the cowboys
6. AJ Green (just safe )
7. Matt Forte (may move him down i think bears are going to unload him getting old) just a hunch..
8. Julio Jones (atlanta, please get matt ryan a running back and OLINE)
9. Jeremy Hill
10. if AP lands with a promising team, i'd take him here.
11. L. McCoy (they are going to improve running game and run him more next year)
12. J. Charles
