#SUPERFLEX MOCK DRAFT UPGRADE#

QB Carson Wentz had the fifth-most drop backs last year (662) and gets a massive upgrade in Jeffery as his WR1. During that span, he had the ninth-most 100-yard games (12), the highest number of targets per route run (0.33), and finished with 13 top-12 PPR weeks over those 41 games (31.7 percent). From 2013 to 2015, Jeffery was an absolute target hog, averaging 9.5 targets per game and a 26.3 percent target market share. Jeffery looks like one of the most overlooked wideouts in this year’s market.

Every year I take a look back and compare the ADP in late August versus end of season finishes and try to find where we went wrong (barring injury). Reed leads all tight ends in PPR points per game over the last two seasons and was a nice draft selection late in the fifth by Michael Moore.įavorite pick: Alshon Jeffery.

Two full rounds passed between the TE2 (Travis Kelce, 3.09) and TE3 (Jordan Reed, 5.11), further distinguishing how large a tier gap there is at the position behind Rob Gronkowski and Kelce versus the field. Lynch carries some major question marks entering 2017, but there’s quite a bit to find alluring and behind that offensive line and his touchdown potential. Marshawn Lynch continues to creep up draft boards and Jeff Ratcliffe scooped him up at 4.05 in this draft. He forced 46 missed tackles (fourth-most) and picked up 11 weeks of top-12 fantasy production behind one of our top-five offensive lines.

Murray was a workhorse last year averaging 21.6 touches per game and finishing as the RB5. I love Dan Clasgens’ pick of Murray in the early third at RB9. Curtis Patrick selected the first rookie of the draft at 3.07 with Leonard Fournette who the Jaguars hope can bring balance to their offensive attack.įavorite pick: DeMarco Murray. The addition also rewards those patient enough to wait, as many fantasy studs slide beyond conventional ADP and allow those fantasy GMs the chance to build a strong core. The superflex addition is evidenced quite well in these two rounds with half of our drafters selecting one for their fantasy squads. He’s coming off a 12-touchdown campaign where he finished as the fantasy RB7 but ranked top-five in breakaway runs – runs of 15+ yards (16) - red-zone touches (57), and top-12 fantasy weeks (8). He was highly efficient orchestrating the short offense with Brees, particularly on slants and hitches, and culminated in the second-most receptions by a rookie wideout (92) in NFL history (Anquan Boldin ranks first with 101).įavorite pick: Melvin Gordon was the RB4. Thomas averaged 17.0 PPR points per game last year and finished as our No. Michael Thomas at WR6 caught my attention by Michael Moore. Rodgers has finished as either the QB1 or QB2 in seven of his last nine seasons played. We also saw Brandon Marianne Lee take Aaron Rodgers in the first. Luck has yet to start throwing while still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, but has shown he has weekly QB1 potential every time he laces up. The first six picks weren’t anything shocking, but at 1.07, Curtis Patrick selected Andrew Luck to kick off the quarterback drafting. Just because we’re allowed to start two quarterbacks doesn’t mean our drafters were willing to forego elite assets to start the draft. In each of the tables I included the player’s drafted position to help catalog where we are at each position with this being a Superflex draft. Walton Spurlin, Pat Thorman, Dan Clasgens, Tyler Loechner, Daniel Kelley, Curtis Patrick, Jeff Ratcliffe, George Kritikos, Brandon Marianne Lee, Michael Moore, Scott Barrett, and I all took part in this mock draft. For now, let’s dive into how the PFF Fantasy staff drafted their squads in a 12-team, PPR, superflex mock draft. I’d also highly recommend adding IDP positions to your league, but we’ll cross that bridge at a later date. It changes the whole dynamic of the draft with quarterbacks surging in value as a QB2 often far outscores traditional flex points accrued from an RB3/WR4. For those unfamiliar with the term “superflex,” it’s an additional flex spot that allows you to use either a QB/RB/WR/TE in that slot. If there’s one thing I can suggest for home leagues looking to spice up the year-after-year monotony of regular redraft leagues, it’s introducing the concept of superflex. As soon as I saw a superflex mock was on the PFF schedule, I immediately volunteered for the writeup.
