  1. This is a dynasty question w/ a look to 2026. We have 225 team cap and every yr you keep a player their salary increases by $3. Anyways, I have Walker at $22 and drafted Zach Charb last year for $9 as a handcuff since Walker is always hurt. I want to throw him back in the pot, but am worried he’ll get bid up past $12 and I do not want to lose him. I see no way the Seahawks resign or franchise Walker which gives me ZC as a lead back at a very reasonable $15 next year.

    Also, draft Ray Davis last year for $5 and I don’t have Cook. I want to throw him back as well but the Cook owner will very likely go over $8 for him. My thought process is the Bills will not sign Cook or tag him and I get Davis as the lead back next year at $11.

    I can absorb keeping both guys this year but I always like to go into the auction with the fattest wallet I can.

    Thoughts?

  2. I’m not sure that either of those guys is a lock to even be the eventual heir apparent to alpha duties in their backfields. I’m not sure I’d want to galaxy-brain away almost 10% of this year’s cap to do that with those guys. You know your league best, but I’d personally probably toss em back.

    1. Thanks. As we get closer to the draft I’m reconsidering my position to hold and leaning more towards dumoing them. Appreciate the response.

  3. Hey guys, thanks for the great content as always. Quick question for my home league. This year, we are keeping three players. The format is PPR, and passing TDs are worth 6 points. I’m keeping Nabers and Bijan. Who do you recommend between JD5 and McBride? I am leaning toward JD5 because QBs are valued in this league. I also have the #1 pick. Would you take Jeanty or Brian Thomas JR. These will be the two best players available.

    1. Great options, make sure to use the cheat sheet. I would keep McBride and I’d draft Jeanty. Gonna be a monster roster in PPR.

  4. Hey guys, I have a keeper question, format is 1 PPR, cannot keep players drafted in first 3 rounds. As you keep players throughout the years you double up on the rounds you can draft them, for example first year you move up 1 spot, next year 2, after that 4 and so on . I am able to keep 2 players I believe my best value is Bucky Irving in the 10th. But am struggling deciding between Higgen’s in the 5th or Jameson Williams in the 8th. I could also keep Kamara in the 4th but don’t think that value is quite where I would like it. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    1. Bucky and J-MO for me!
