My pick: Mark Andrews was my third-round pick during our 10-team mock in July, and he once again lands on my team. Javonte Williams could also turn out to be a steal in this range if he can separate from Melvin Gordon, who's dealing with a foot injury. Alvin Kamara continues to be a risk worth taking at the Round 2-3 turn, with his legal troubles likely to remain unresolved until next year. Round 3: We're still early enough in the draft that there aren't any egregious picks to discuss. The Bolts' line came in eighth in our recent Offensive Line Rankings. He's also getting even more reinforcements up front in the form of first-round guard Zion Johnson. The Chargers star tied for the league lead in total touchdowns last year with 20 and finished as the RB3 in average fantasy points per game. My pick: Austin Ekeler was an obvious selection at fourth overall. However, you can make an argument for it given the new pass-heavy scheme Jefferson will benefit from in Minnesota and Matthew Stafford's lingering elbow issues putting a sliver of doubt into Kupp's outlook. Seeing Justin Jefferson go above Cooper Kupp is the only real surprise. I expect him to be a check-down option just as often given the relative hodgepodge at quarterback and to still get the volume to easily be a 1,200-yard rusher again, so I’m banking on that as the cornerstone of this roster.Round 1: This is about what you should expect an opening round to look like in a 10-team half PPR league this season. At the same time, he still had 1,200 rushing yards and 74 receptions for 467 yards to finish with 10 total touchdowns. He averaged only 3.9 yards per carry last season and the offensive line isn’t improved all that much.
I understand the downside of Najee Harris. More importantly, though, Cook has already been nicked up in training camp, which has been an annoying trend for fantasy managers in recent years. For starters, there’s the volume that the wide receiver should get in Kevin O’Connell’s offense and we’re talking PPR. Jefferson, to me, has more of an argument to be the pick here than Cook. Going into this pick fully aware of the arguments against taking Najee Harris, I trusted my gut and went with the Steelers running back over either Viking, Justin Jefferson or Dalvin Cook.

So we’re going to give you that with a bit of insight as well. You can see how fellow managers are drafting and what players might be available at your pick.
