QBs

Sleeper....Dwayne Haskins (Once he gets the reigns in Washington he will be put similar numbers to Murray at much better value) Bust.......Kyler Murray (Cardinals are a dysfunctional organization.....Why draft 2 first round QBs in a row and hire a mediocre college coach to be an NFL head coach.....no way he lives up to hype, but he may still be serviceable due being a rookie rushing QB)

RB

Sleeper....Derrick Henry (started to bust out last year, but has a bit of downside in PPR leagues due to not being a receiving threat) Bust....Le'veon Bell (17 you....I'm bitter about last season....also he plays for the Jets)

WR

Sleeper....Courtland Sutton (He will breakout eventually....might be this year, might take the Broncos getting a QB) Antonio Brown (He will still be productive, but he will miss Big Ben's arm....he will still be a good player just with a lower ceiling)

TE

Sleeper....Noah Fant (Broncos have been quietly adding play makers on offense and I think he get a decent number of targets for a rookie TE) Bust....Evan Engram (everyone on the Giant's offense not name Saquon Barkley will be bust this year)

Dont know about Engram. Hes the best receiver on that team and they will be playing from behind. Teams will stack the box against Barkley. Someone has to get those targets. I think Barkley is the most talented back in football but he is going to be seeing a lot of 8 man boxes. I'd take Kamara or McCaffery with the number one pick, especially in PPR.

Dante Pettis with the 49ers is one to watch. If you catch him late in a draft, he’s a good value.

Sleepers - Aaron Jones because I’m not keeping him and he’s in a great offense if they will give him the ball. Calvin Ridley, they are going to throw it a ton. Michael Gallup, can throw every ball to Amari.

Busts - no names yet but after my draft in the 25th I can give you a lock. My first pick (which is actually a 3rd round pick as we have two keepers) is always a bust. My one of my keepers usually fails to match his production from the year before two. This years keepers are Joe Mixon and Leonard Fournette FYI.

I think kerryon Johnson is a big sleeper this year. As for a bust, I’ll say either leveon Bell or Antonio brown. I think Antonio wants to do anything but play football right now and as a dolphins fan, I seen first hand how Gase handles running backs. He never seems to get along with one for too long. I see bell and gase clashing before the season is over.

I'm hoping Darrell Henderson is going to be a sleeper this year. Got him late and the upside is there especially if Gurley misses time.

I'm very high on Haskins since he declared, however if he's your starting QB, you won't be winning your fantasy league unless you have the #1 or #2 fantasy player at several other positions.

Dak had some good rookie games, but not good enough to carry a fantasy team to the ship.

As a keeper who would the pack choose. I'm in a PPR league.

Mahomes
Laveon Bell
JuJu Smith Shuster

I had literally this same scenario except I'm in standard scoring. I could keep 3 and out of those I chose Mahomes (12th round) and David Johnson (2nd round). The reason Johnson was 2nd round for me is because I also had Kamara and he cost me my 1st, which is fine because I'm picking 10th of 12th in each round.

Keepers in my league cost the round you drafted them last year or their round value if a previous keeper. If purely based on round value or ADP, in a PPR league I would go Johnson, Ju Ju and Bell in that order of preference. I would wait on QB until round 8 or later and take Dak, Lamar Jackson or someone like that. I'm keeping Mahomes because I get 12th round value and my league is standard scoring so I sorta miss out of Ju Ju's monster volume. Good luck.
