***EDITED WITH A DIFFERENT OPTION***

I have to make a decision before noon (CST). Would you rather have Gronk for a 1st round pick or Stefon Diggs, Allen Hurns or Blake Bortles for a 12th round pick? Standard league.

Look at it this way. If Diggs hits, you'll feel like a monumental idiot for sticking with Bortles, no matter what.

If Diggs sucks, you only feel slightly idiotic for sticking with him.

Depends on if you're thinking Bortles would be your starter or backup. Diggs could breakout this year, but I'm not putting too much stock in any WR in that offense.

Diggs has an ADP of 104 according to FantasyPros. Brotles has an ADP of 84. So you are getting the better value with Brotles.

I also personally thing Brotles is the better keeper here.

Alright. At the end of the day, I really wanted to keep Bortles so that's what I did. We can keep five keepers in this league so this is what I have.

Allen Robinson (4th round pick)
Carlos Hyde (7th round pick)
CJ Anderson (11th round pick)
Blake Bortles (12th round pick)
Jordy Nelson (13th round pick)
 
Good luck with Hyde....

I'm counting on volume to hopefully help me. He COULD be a good runner this year. We'll see. But I'll have other options available just in case.

Plus, RB's have diminished value in this league because you can't use them in the flex position...only TE's and WR's.

The value you got for Jordy Nelson, Blake Bortles, and CJ Anderson is really solid. All 3 of those guys are arguably top 10 at their position and you got them in the 11, 12, and 13 rounds.

Figured it would be interesting to see where Jordy Nelson went off the boards in keeper league's last year. Obviously worth losing a guy for the season to have Jordy the following year at a ridiculous value (I woulda gone after him for sure) but trying to gauge which round was appropriate and when others may have the same idea would have been tough.

Good job not going with Diggs, value will be way down now.

I had him last season, problem is SD is such a pass happy offense, River's is going to get his stats first.

Minny defense may be on the field a lot.
