NFT: FF Help: Keepers

Yes, Cousins at round 12 is great value but I would keep Cooks over him.

Cooks
Howard
Johnson

You lock up a really good core with 4th, 6th, and 7th picks. But if you can draft Cooks in the 1st instead than maybe your original list works.

I don't agree for the following reasons
1 new system
2 not # 1 option Gronk and Edelman are 1-2. Tom gets I. Trouble he looks to Gronk or Rb check down.
3 Tom spreads the ball around to everyone which means less targets.

.

He is a no brainer unless you have pick 1 overall.

I understand but evidence to support my point were the joint practices with the Jags where Brady and Cooks were killing them. The Jags couldn't stop the connection.

Cooks 4 +0
DJ 9 +1
Howard 7 +2

I would be looking to hold off on accelerating DJs round value as long as possible.
Cooks is still a value in 4.
Howard is still a value in the 5th. To me he is the least likely to maintain value in the next 2 years, so I don't mind bumping his rounds up.

Edelman has been top 2 because they haven't had anyone better. Cooks is better and they gave up a 1 for him. They didn't do that to make him the 3rd option.

Can keep between 2-4 players from the following in a 12 team PPR - start 2 RBs, 3WR, 1 flex:

Jordan Howard 15th
Hunter Henry 14th
Cam Meredith 13th

Tevin Coleman 10th
Paul Perkins 12th
Isaiah Crowell 7th

For sure keeping the first 3, especially since they are essentially free picks.

Any of the last 3 is a value at the price so I'll keep one. Can't make trades before I lock keepers on Sunday, so that's not an option.

and can only choose one more, I'd go with the best player, for me that would be Crowell. A 7th rd value for arguably a #1 RB is well worth it.

I play in a 14 team PPR league. I can't keep any players from the first 2 rounds, and only get to keep a player for two years. My choices this year are between Powell and Coleman (9th and 10th Rd), not sure who i want to lean on. Coleman the better player and in a better system, but with Freeman ahead of him. Powell should get fed a ton, but its the Jets which is an offensive waste land, don't know how successful he will be.

Also, I'm trying to figure out who i should target with my 6th pick. Elliot suspension hurts fantasy wise, I was probably looking at Julio before the suspension. I will have to choose between McCoy, Evans, Green, Freeman. Any suggestions?

I'd keep Crowell because when you consider everyone else keeping 3 (at least), etc. your first round is at best 4th round, so Crowell in the 7th is good value. I could go either way on Coleman, he splits carries at best, and Perkins is stuck behind a sieve OL that can't run block, do they figure it out? It wouldn't hurt to keep him, he should be drafted before the 12th round so it doesn't cost you anything to keep him too.

Plus Crowell catches pass too.

I have the 2nd pick and the draft is non-snake. So I'll be grabbing Bell in the first round and hoping for a decent WR in the 2nd

Keeper cost is round +2, so the normal first 2 round picks will likely be available.

I am basically between cooks and cousins

Thanks to all
