Carr is fine as a fill-in when he’s got a favorable matchup. Guess I’ll punt on receiver again and land my QB3. I didn’t want to reach for Laviska Shenault in Round 9, only to see him go off the board shortly after my Dillon pick. I can’t catch a break at receiver in this draft. Dillon should be the goal-line guy and has a ton of upside if Aaron Jones gets hurt. He’s got a very clear skillset as a bruising back, and he should have a more defined role in Green Bay’s offense this season. I’ll take the shot on a player I believe in.ĭillon is one of the rare high-upside backs I’m willing to take over a receiver late in drafts. Granted, Denver’s offense may not take as many deep shots with Teddy Bridgewater under center. However, Sutton is a baller when healthy and is amazing at making contested catches. Landing Sutton here is obviously a risk, as he’s coming off a torn ACL. With only Metcalf on my roster, it’s time to start targeting wide receivers. Pitts may very well buck the trend of rookie tight ends struggling to transition to the pros, but history is not on his side.


However, I feel much more comfortable getting Pitts in Round 7, as it leaves me a little more room for error. That’s because I’m not willing to pay the price he usually costs. This is the first time I’ve ever drafted Pitts, real or mock. Although he may not be Denver’s lead back immediately, I’m betting on him taking over this backfield down the road. He was a battering ram in college, but I’m curious to see if Williams will have similar success running through NFL defenders. While I planned to go receiver here, Williams was too enticing to pass up. I’m confident Jacobs will still lead this backfield by a wide margin. Drake isn’t a great player and has durability issues.

Kenyan Drake joining the Raiders is annoying, but overestimated. He’s a touchdown machine and a really balanced running back. I’ve always been a fan of Jacobs’ talent. Meanwhile, there are a ton of receivers I’d happily draft later. I took Jacobs because of the looming dropoff at running back. Round 5 presented the choice of Robert Woods, Cooper Kupp, Julio Jones, D.J. This is where the draft gets tough, and I mean that in a good way. He’s a fantastic prospect, so we’ll see if he shows off his potential in his rookie season. Lawrence, however, offers a much higher ceiling on what could be a decent Jaguars offense. Matt Ryan was still on the board, but we know who he is by now. While CeeDee Lamb tempted me, I’m taking an upside shot as my QB2. My decision to take Metcalf cost me a little bit, as Tom Brady, Joe Burrow, Matthew Stafford, and Jalen Hurts all went between my third and fourth-round picks. Metcalf has a legitimate chance to finish as the WR1 this year. That’s the beauty of Superflex leagues if you get that first QB early, you’re setting yourself up for great values as the draft progresses. Yet with so many guys I feel good about still around, I opted to take the incredible value on Metcalf. The first nine quarterbacks were gone by this pick, and I was tempted to secure my QB2. Yes, the Browns may throw the ball a little more than last season. Russell Wilson was on the board, but with Allen on the roster, I couldn’t pass up the chance to land a true RB1. Sometimes you have to take what the draft gives you. I expecting to end up with Kyler Murray or Lamar Jackson, so I’ll gladly take Allen, who could be an MVP candidate this season. With 15 picks between my first and second-round selections, I couldn’t risk missing out on an elite starting quarterback. Getting Allen with the fifth pick feels like stealing, but I would’ve gone quarterback here no matter what.

The worst thing you can do is be left with Baker Mayfield and Jared Goff as your starters. Unlike other formats, quarterbacks fly off the board in Superflex drafts. Then, I wait until no later than Round 5 to secure my second starter. My Superflex game plan is to land my first quarterback within the first two rounds, depending on my draft position. Quarterbacks matter most to actual NFL teams, so it should be that way in fantasy, too. I love Superflex because it puts greater importance on quarterbacks, which is more aligned with real football. In Superflex leagues, you designate a FLEX spot to either a running back, wide receiver, tight end, or quarterback. Superflex is one of my favorite fantasy football league formats.
