I have it Edelman-Boyd-Brown-Cooks, with little difference between the first three and a big drop to Cooks. My guess is some of the ADP takes into consideration the pre-Cam days, but yeah, I have him above all those guys. That said, other than Cooks, it's roughly the same range. Don't discount how much Brady meant to Edelman's production, even with Cam.

Darren Waller and Raheem Mostert vs JuJu ? Keeper Standard
Dan Harris
1:32
I like JuJu, personally. There's uncertainty with Mostert and Waller has plenty of others with whom he'll be sharing targets.That said, I'm pretty bullish on the Steelers and JuJu, so take that for what it's worth. A fair deal either way

how should I value Cobb in Houston? He got paid, but it seems like he’s going undrafted except for in deep leagues
Dan Harris
1:33
I have him at WR74 in 1/2 PPR leagues. If you judge people by how much Bill O'Brien thinks they're worth then your evaluations would probably be pretty off! Just not sure there's reason enough for optimism there.

10-man PPR league. Made a trade last season and now have Picks 1, 10, and 20 in the draft. Because of the trade I no longer have a 3rd round pick. I am strongly considering going RB with my first 3 picks and then going WR after that. Any thoughts or advice?
Dan Harris
1:35
Zero issues with it, assuming you like the players there. WR is very deep, RB is not, so I have no issues with loading up on RBs early, even with your first three picks.

Josh Jacobs or Miles Sanders? Which do you take if given the choice and why?
Dan Harris
1:37
You're going to hate this answer but I don't have a strong lean on this - they're back to back in my rankings, I have nearly full faith in both. If there's a tiebreaker, it would be that the Raiders keeping Jalen Richard makes me doubtful about their claim that Jacobs will get more work in the passing game. With nobody really to challenge Sanders, I'd lean him. But you can't go wrong.

Is Johnathan Taylor going to step into that featured role from the start?
Dan Harris
1:39
I honestly would just be guessing at this point, but I don't think so. Mack hasn't been awful, there's a weird training camp, there are no preseason games. I can't see Taylor jumping in and just taking the full backfield load right away. I think they'll split until Taylor eventually runs with it.

How much value does goedert have? both with and without Ertz
Dan Harris
1:41
With, I have him just outside TE1 range. With Alshon likely starting on the PUP, Desean Jackson dealing with off the field issues, and Reagor not having preseason games, you figure both tight ends will figure into the mix often. Without Ertz, Goedert is a top-5 play for me.

PPR: Better to keep Joe Mixon or Lamar Jackson?
Dan Harris
1:41
Mixon for me.

Hey man, what are your favourite late QB's?
Dan Harris
1:43
Suppose it depends on the type of league. I have certainly been grabbing Aaron Rodgers is standard-sized leagues since he is mostly being ignored. Cam has great upside. Joe Burrow could overcome the lack of preseason games. And give me some Gardner Minshew in deeper formats.
George
1:43
Dan, i have a keeper question.  12 team, half ppr, 2 WRs. I can keep 2 of the following, who do you recommend?  Zeke (1st), Godwin (3rd), DJ Moore (5th), or Sanders (7th). Thanks!
Dan Harris
1:43
The running backs.
Ryan

I recently had the number 9 pick in a half ppr 12 man league and i took Kenyan Drake over the likes of Joe Mixon and Nick Chubb. Hill, Jones and Hopkins were also available. Do you think this was a reach? I think alot of people are high on him in my league and he wouldn't be there for my second round pick.
Dan Harris
1:44
I believe I have Mixon-Chubb-Drake b-2-b-2-b and all over Hopkins so no issue with it. Certainly not a reach, and he should not have made it back to you in that format anyway!
Ryan
1:45
Qb seems to be so deep this year. In a half ppr redraft league with 15 rounds I was thinking of waiting as long as the 12th or 13th round to draft a Qb, or possibly even later and just stream all year. What do you think about this strategy?
Dan Harris
1:45
Absolutely good with it. Waiting is never a bad strategy, it's a particularly deep position this year, and you can load up elsewhere.
Guest

What do you think about rookie RB`s this year? Which one would you peak at his ADP ?
Dan Harris
1:48
I think they'll all (as in the ones we're really thinking about) provide value. There's probably no chance i'll end up with CEH and only a small chance I'll end up with Taylor, just because there is someone in every draft who is willing to pull the trigger early (though I have no issues with where Taylor is in ADP). I'm good with both Swift and Akers where they are going in drafts. Vaughn and Dobbins, too, but I haven't really been seeking them out in redraft.

Standard 2 QB league. Top picks in our draft will most likely be CMC Barkley Mahomes. I pick 4 do I grab Lamar or a RB?
Dan Harris
1:49
Lamar or Zeke is fine. I'd lean Lamar but wouldn't argue.
Diego

In ppr format... You are higher on Carson than Conner, what scares you about Conner or Pittsburgh offense knowing that Big Ben is back and the Steelers have been always a productive team in fantasy.
Dan Harris
1:52
This is one where Conner is likely going to continue to move up my board as we get closer to the season and there are no negative reports about Big Ben. But yeah, you have to proceed at least somewhat cautiously with that situation at this point, given Ben's age and injury, not to mention Conner's own injury history. But this is not one where I'm planting a flag to say Carson>Conner in PPR. Will depend how things shake out over the next month.

why is there not more buzz on Chase Edmonds? He was a stud before injury.  Is there a possibility he is a 1B to Drake?
Dan Harris
1:54
Is there a possibility? Sure. Is it likely? I don't think so. Remember, the Cardinals gave up picks to get Drake in a meaningless year, then signed him. Especially given how dynamic he was last year, there's every reason to think the team gives him a big workload. Edmonds is in a good situation and should be a high-end handcuff. But I don't see him being the 1B with Drake healthy.

At what point in your draft do you start taking lottery tickets? (Alexander Mattison, Tony Pollard, etc.)
Dan Harris
1:55
There's no one size fits all answer to this. Really depends on your team composition. But I'm at least in the double-digit rounds when I feel I've fortified by teams enough to begin taking shots.
Ryan
1:56
Who do you like from most to least in half ppr? McClaurin, Chark, Metcalf
Dan Harris
1:56
Chark>McLaurin>Metcalf with little difference between them.
Mike

When it comes to Tier-based drafting, how should drafters value players in the same Tier across different positions? For example, is a Tier 3 RB the same "value" as a Tier 3 WR? Is there ever a point that a lower Tier in one position out-values a higher Tier in another?
Dan Harris
1:58
Of course! That's not really what tier-based drafting means, at least not to me. You don't run through your top tier at each position, then your second best tier at each position, then your third. Your second tier tight ends are probably going to be closer to your fifth tier running back for example. It's really about using tiers in conjunction with your overall rankings and that when you've got players close to each other but perhaps one ends a tier and the other doesn't, use it that way.

Hi Dan, who are some of your favorite late round RB and WR flyers to look at?
Dan Harris
2:02
I mentioned Chase Edmonds before but I have a lot of shares of him. Damien Harris, Chris Thompson (for PPR), Tony Pollard, etc.  For WR, I've been grabbing a lot of Steve Sims this year, Jalen Reagor with Alshon's injury, and Allen Lazard (someone else needs to catch Aaron Rodgers' passes, darn it!)
Ok, guys, my time is up. I'm sorry I couldn't get to all the questions! Still plenty in the queue. Thanks for stopping by!
