Draft Overview
Can Anyone Duplicate The
Browns’ Success?
A year ago in this space, we noted that, for a change, a team was the story of the draft. It was the Cleveland Browns, coming off of the league's second-ever 0-16 season, coming into their first draft with new General Manager John Dorsey, in a highly unusual situation with two picks in the Top 5 (1,4). Dorsey made the most of the circumstances, landing a franchise QB in Baker Mayfield and top-flight CB Denzel Ward and even grabbing a huge value in superstar RB Nick Chubb in the second round -- resulting in the team's best draft since the vaunted Class of '78 with Ozzie Newsome and Clay Matthews. Once albatross head coach Hue Jackson was jettisoned at midseason, the team went on the kind of roll that justified taking them out of this year's first round in a monstrous package deal with the Giants that brought legendary WR Odell Beckham, Jr and impact pass-rusher Olivier Vernon to town.

Whilst irrelevant to this year's first round barring a last-minute pick acquisition, the Browns still loom over the proceedings, this time as a role model after having been a joke for about 98% of the time since 1989. That same year, the Cowboys bottomed out and shortly thereafter Jimmy Johnson set the modern standard for quick and impactful turnarounds that Dorsey is amazingly on pace to better. It's long been a truism in the league that winners are built in the trenches and those GMs seeking to replicate Dorsey's franchise-building are blessed with perhaps the greatest DL class in history at their disposal. The best of the best in this class (keeping in mind that some are possibilities at both OLB and DE depending on a team's given system) include Ohio State's Nick Bosa, Alabama's Quinnen Williams, Kentucky's Josh Allen, Houston's Ed Oliver, Mississippi State's Montez Sweat, Michigan's Rashan Gary and the Clemson duo of Christian Wilkins and Clelin Ferrell. Unlike last year, there is no storied group of QBs threatening to clog the Top 10, leading the media to speculate, erroneously as always, that Silly Season won't bump one or more of the passers much higher status. This year, Oklahoma's Kyler Murray made the swift journey from "too tiny to matter" to "just barely tall enough and the object of Kliff Kingsbury's obsession" and predictably vaulted to contention for the top pick notwithstanding Arizona having filled the same spot in the first round last year. Ohio State's Dwayne Haskins, who put on one of the most spectacular aerial shows in Big Ten history last year, also should land in the Top 10, if not the Top 5, if any team is induced to trade up. Murray and Haskins stand head and shoulders above this class notwithstanding the almost non-existent history of rapid success for QBs with only one year starting at the NCAA level. Missouri's Drew Lock and Duke's Daniel Jones are the only other passers thought to have more than a trace of breakout ability right now. Other candidates for the Top 10 include breakout combine star WR DJ Metcalf of Mississippi, OL Jonah Williams of Alabama and Jawaan Taylor of Florida, CBs Greedy Williams of LSU and Byron Murphy of Washington, LSU LB Devin White and positional prototype TE TJ Hockenson of Iowa.

First Look Ahead to 2020 Pro Football Draft
In another sign that the goofy excesses of NBA Culture have bled over to other sports, teams such as the Giants and Dolphins are thought by some in the media to be engaged in a Tank For Tua (Tagovailoa, Alabama QB) strategy. Whether they are or aren't, quarterback is not an all-or-nothing dynamic at the top of the 2020 NFL Draft -- not with Georgia's Jake Fromm and Oregon's Oregon's Justin Hebert potentially challenging for the #1 overall pick. Unusually for these times, there are two RB candidates for the Top 10 a year out: Wisconsin stud Jonathan Taylor and national champion Travis Etienne of Clemson. There are also two very noteworthy WRs as well: Alabama's Jerry Jeudy and Colorado's Laviska Shenault. In the trenches, Auburn DL Derrick Brown and Nick Coe loom large, along with OL Andrew Thomas of Georgia, Tyler Bladasz of Wisconsin, Mekhi Becton of Louisville and Walker Little of Stanfod, Ohio State DE Chase Young, Alabama DL Raekwon Davis and Michigan State DL Kenny Willekes. Other candidates for the Top 10 include DB Grant Delpit of LSU, Isaiah Simmons of Clemson and CJ Henderson of Florida and Alabama LB Dylan Moses.

We at FantasyDrafthelp.com have devised a contest to help you and your friends measure your acumen on Draft Day. It’s the FantasyDrafthelp.com Mock Draft Game (credit to Fantasy Drafthelp.com contributor Bob Benak for inventing the game). Each participant submits a mock draft before the proceedings … and then all parties compete in a separate “live draft competition.”
Each board is scored separately, but the scores of the two are compiled to crown the Grand Champion of Draft Day. Here’s the scoring system:
Picks #1-4 are weighted at one point apiece. Picks #5-8 are weighted at two points apiece. Picks #9-12 are weighted at three points apiece. Picks #13-16 are weighted at four points apiece. Picks #17-20 are weighted at five points apiece. Picks #21-24 are weighted at six points apiece. Picks #25-28 are weighted at seven points apiece. Picks #29-32 are weighted at eight points apiece
Players may “roll over” their picks from the completed mock draft to the live draft if a player remains on the board … or they may cover themselves with another pick. Example: a player has Tampa Bay taking Ed Oliver with the #5 pick on the mock draft they turned in at the outset. That would count for two points if the pick is correct. If Oliver is still on the board when the Broncos are on the clock, the player is not obligated to pick Oliver during the live draft. He may “roll over” the pick, choosing to try to win two points in both the live and completed mock draft categories. Or he may try to cover himself with another pick. For example, should he correctly pick Devin White in the live draft part of the competition, he would gain the two points in the live draft but win no points in the completed mock draft part of the competition, in which he incorrectly picked Oliver. So strategy is at a premium during this competition. This game also puts great emphasis on correctly making picks later in the first round, when chances for success are the most difficult. Picking a player accurately in the later part of the first round on both the completed mock draft and the live mock draft can ensure a thrilling, come-from-behind victory. If you and your friends want to take your enjoyment of Draft Day to the next level by competing and strategizing along with the wizards of the NFL, try our game and enjoy!

2019 Rookie Class Fantasy Analysis
A strong class of WRs accounts for the overwhelming percentage of projected 2019 fantasy football production from the rookie class. Mississippi's deadly duo of DJ Metcalf and AJ Brown could thrive very early depending on where they land, as could Marquise Brown of Oklahoma, N'Keal Harry of Arizona State and Kelvin Harmon of North Carolina State. Those getting drafted a bit later who could become sleepers as early as this year include Stanford's JJ Arcega-Whiteside (who will be worth so much more if he switches to TE) and Ohio State's Parris Campbell. Speaking of TE, Gronk's retirement coincides with a strong incoming crop eager to grab the baton from him, including Iowa's TJ Hockenson and Noah Fant, the two Smiths (Kaden of Stanford and Irv of Alabama) and Jace Sternberger of Texas A&M. As is generally the case in this day and age, there are no immediate projected #1 fantasy RBs in this class, which makes Alabama's combo of Josh Jacobs and Damien Harris the poster children in that they split carries at the last level and will at the next level. Others of note include David Montgomery of Iowa State, Darrell Henderson of Memphis, Rodney Anderson of Georgia, heavyweight RB Elijah Holyfield of Georgia and Miles Sanders of Penn State. Few if any project as immediate fantasy #2s regardless of circumstance. Later-round sleepers of note include Trayveon Williams of Texas A&M, Mike Weber of Ohio State and Travis Homer of Miami. As one-year starters on Saturdays, the only candidates to come in and immediately start on Sundays at QB, Dwayne Haskins of Ohio State and Kyler
Murray of Oklahoma don't even profile as good fantasy #2s in 2019.

Why Value Matters In
Fantasy & Pro Sports Drafts By Rick Morris On our FANTASYDRAFTHELP.COM INSIDER webcasts, we’ve discussed this point many times, but we’re continually reminded of the need to readdress it: the very real link between fantasy sports drafts and the so-called real kind. 13 years ago, when the Buffalo Bills selected Donte Whitner with the eighth overall pick at a time when he was considered a fringe Top 20 player at best, FDH Senior Editor Jason Jones and I ridiculed the pick in a real-time webcast. We explained that Marv Levy, who was new to the Buffalo front office, clearly had no concept of value. Top10 picks must become franchise players at their positions. If, for whatever reason, you are fixated on a player unworthy of the draft slot, trade back and obtain the value collectively, through the desired player and additional picks, but always get value for your pick. And if a Top 10 pick must become a franchise player, then a Top 5 pick must become one of the elite players in the league. For a team like the Browns that squandered numerous draft picks in the last dozen years under the auspices of such luminaries as Dwight Clark, Butch Davis, Shoebox Pete Garcia, Eric Mangini, Mike Lombardi, Ray Farmer and Sashi Brown, the fourth overall pick in the draft has to be a home run and cannot be used on a player not deemed safe enough by the collective brainpower of NFL personnel people. There is no margin for error. We at FDH don’t have to educate skilled fantasy sports owners on the concept of value. This is something they know, or at the very least intuit, as they go through their draft or auction preparation. We always say that you win by obtaining value with every pick. While that ideal is almost impossible, you have to come as close as you can. That means that your high picks have to perform at the level forecasted and your mid-round and lower-round picks must outperform their draft slots. We have always emphasized that the same precept holds true in professional sports drafts. Winning organizations make the most of their draft picks and they know how to proceed in a measured fashion. They do not panic.
