Welcome back to the Mock Draft Series! This is a series of mock drafts that will happen throughout the 2018 NFL off-season. The drafts will have different rules, that are tailored to different league formats. This draft is Dynasty, PPR, Supeflex and does include rookies. This article provides some reaction/feedback to picks but we go into full detail on the Top2Pod, our podcast that you can listen to, or download via Apple Podcast HERE. The writers have their twitter handles linked in their comment. Each featured writer has one pick explained, and that pick is unedited and in their own words, not mine.

1.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Ezekiel Elliot

1.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 DeAndre Hopkins

1.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Todd Gurley

1.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Odell Beckham Jr.

1.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Le’Veon Bell

1.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Antonio Brown

1.7 Rick from The Checkdown Leonard Fournette

1.8 Wheeler/nflmock David Johnson

1.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Deshaun Watson

Why Watson this early? this is how I Superflex! Despite playing just 6 1/2 games he threw for 1,699 yards, 19 touchdowns and 8 interceptions. He also rushed for 269 yards and 2 more Touchdowns. If you translate that over 16 games, you get 4,180 passing yards, 46 Tds,19 interceptions, 662 rushing yards, 4 rushing touchdowns.

1.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Michael Thomas

1.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Kareem Hunt

1.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 Mike Evans

2.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Dalvin Cook

2.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Melvin Gordon

2.3 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Saquon Barkley

It feels absolutely strange taking a rookie this early. The thing that truly separates Barkley is his elite receiving floor. He’s just as talented catching the ball out of McCaffrey with far more upside as a rusher. As well he’s been getting ridiculous value in trades; the more the hype builds which will only go up after the combine.

2.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Alvin Kamara

2.5 Wheeler/nflmock Carson Wentz

2.6 Rick from The Checkdown Julio Jones

2.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Christian McCaffrey

2.8 Eric Adams/Top2 Keenan Allen

2.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks AJ Green

2.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Davante Adams

2.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Derrick Henry

2.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Joe Mixon

3.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Amari Cooper

Im sticking with my young, high draft capital template. Here is another talented former NFL draft, first round pick, laying around. Welcome aboard team TYPHOON Mr. Cooper. He had one down season and the fantasy community immediately says, Ut oh he’s a bust. One day folks will learn that most players value fluctuate from year to year especially when you have constant changes with OC/HC and GM’s. Now with Gruden in the building on a nice long contract Amari can get the stable and consistent coaching he desperately missed last year for the next 5+ years. Now he can learn and build up his game and continue to grow. Gruden will make it a priority to make Amari pop in 2018 and beyond. With his fantasy value set to make a rebound back to the mid first conversation, I already have my ticket. Bought at the 3.1 on 2/16/2018. When we look back on this exercise, watch how INSANE this pick will be.

3.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Devonta Freeman

3.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Stefon Diggs

3.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Russell Wilson

3.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Cam Newton

3.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Aaron Rodgers

3.7 Rick from The Checkdown Tom Brady

3.8 Wheeler/nflmock Tyreek Hill

3.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Marcus Mariota

3.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Jordan Howard

3.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Jared Goff

3.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 Jarvis Landry

4.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Zach Ertz

4.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Alshon Jeffery

4.3 Ryan/fntsyfbconnect Brandin Cooks

4.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Josh Gordon

4.5 Wheeler/nflmock Derrius Guice

4.6 Rick from The Checkdown Carlos Hyde

4.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Allen Robinson

4.8 Eric Adams/Top2 LeSean McCoy

I expect Shady to have another good year being the main focal point in what should be a revamped Buffalo offense. Lamar Jackson as the QB would work wonders for McCoy. Also good value here in the 4th

4.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Travis Kelce

4.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Mark Ingram

4.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Matthew Stafford

4.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Sony Michel

5.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Corey Davis

5.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Kirk Cousins

5.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks T.Y. Hilton

Hilton was my buy low and I was surprised to see him fall. Definitely could end up as my WR1 at the end of the year. Rounds out my WR room and with Luck coming back, I expect him to return to WR1 form. He didn’t have any offseason to get chemistry with Brissett so this season was a wash. The best part of the season was that he escaped injury. Felt like I got my best value so far this draft with this pick. Just missed on Cousins who I was hoping to pair with Diggs.

5.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Andrew Luck

5.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Lamar Jackson

5.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Duke Johnson

5.7 Rick from The Checkdown Adam Thielen

5.8 Wheeler/nflmock JuJu Smith-Schuster

5.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Sammy Watkins

5.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Dak Prescott

5.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Marvin Jones Jr.

5.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 Jimmy Garappolo

6.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Kenyon Drake

6.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Derek Carr

6.3 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Matt Ryan

6.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Jamaal Williams

6.5 Wheeler/nflmock Jameis Winston

6.6 Rick from The Checkdown Evan Engram

6.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Drew Brees

While others are distracted by unproven rookies or youth with lots of ups and downs, I’ll be here taking proven assets and winning a championship in 2018. I can take a rookie with my #12 pick in the 2019 first round. Yep, Brees is old. But Brees is good.

6.8 Eric Adams/Top2 Larry Fitzgerald

6.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Rob Gronkowski

6.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Patrick Mahomes

6.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Tevin Coleman

6.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Calvin Ridley

7.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Will Fuller

7.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Hunter Henry

7.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks OJ Howard

7.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Ronald Jones II

Well it was time to address running back. Waiting this long means swing for the fences in my book. Jones is dripping with upside. Can he prove to be a 3 down back or will he fill a more Sproles-esque role, who knows? However I could easily see him being what Ameer Abdullah woulda, coulda, shoulda been.

7.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Jack Doyle

7.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Dion Lewis

7.7 Rick from The Checkdown Josh Rosen

7.8 Wheeler/nflmock Baldwin, Doug

7.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Golden Tate

7.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Devin Funchess

7.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Jay Ajayi

7.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 C.J. Anderson

8.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Blake Bortles

Bortles is an absolute steal in the 8th. Bortles doesn’t sound exciting, but he’s finished as QB 4, QB 8, and QB 13 the last two seasons. More on why the fantasy football community needs to start respecting Bortles here.

8.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Demaryius Thomas

8.3 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Alex Collins

8.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Chris Carson

8.5 Wheeler/nflmock Foreman, D’Onta

8.6 Rick from The Checkdown Cooper Kupp

8.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Jamison Crowder

8.8 Eric Adams/Top2 Nelson Agholor

8.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Courtland Sutton

8.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Phillip Rivers

8.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Robert Woods

8.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON David Njoku

9.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Ben Roethlisberger

9.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Dez Bryant

Not the sexiest pick ever but for a WR entering his age 30 season he still was WR24 on the season. 8 top 24 finishes in 16 gms. What goes unnoticed is that he finished the season healthy unlike previous seasons where he continuing recovery from an injury or surgery. I do expect him to return as the WR #1 for DAL. If DAL schemes him into space or adds WR playmakers (which I expect them too) Dez should easily be top 20 which at this point in the draft I will gladly take.

9.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Lamar Miller

9.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Nick Chubb

9.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Jimmy Graham

9.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Chris Thompson

9.7 Rick from The Checkdown Mitchell Trubisky

9.8 Wheeler/nflmock Greg Olsen

9.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac George Kittle

9.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Baker Mayfield

9.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Kyle Rudolph

9.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 Michael Crabtree

10.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Jordy Nelson

10.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory DeVante Parker

10.3 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Kelvin Benjamin

10.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Robby Anderson

10.5 Wheeler/nflmock Tarik Cohen

With Nagy at the helm Cohen could turn into the next Tyfreek (spelled slightly differently), think 2016 tyfreek when he was often coming out of the backfield.

10.6 Rick from The Checkdown Marlon Mack

10.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Austin SJ

10.8 Eric Adams/Top2 Julian Edelman

10.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Mark Walton

10.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Rashaad penny

10.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Kenny Golladay

10.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Alex Smith

11.1 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Nick Foles

11.2 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Aaron Jones

11.3 Dave H/ DynastyDorks John Kelly

11.4 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Demarco Murray

11.5 Eric Adams/Top2 Christian Kirk

11.6 Marc S/ FF Addicts Equanimeous St. Brown

11.7 Rick from The Checkdown Orleans Darkwa

11.8 Wheeler/nflmock Jerrick McKinnon

11.9 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Dallas Goedert

11.10 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Sterling Sheppard

11.11 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Kerryon Johnson

The 2017 SEC Offensive Player of the Year was a monster last season for Auburn. In his two regular season games against Alabama and Georgie (defenses full of NFL talent), Johnson had his way in both matchups. If he finds a nice home in the draft (TB, OAK, MIA), Johnson could have an immediate impact his rookie season.

11.12 Matt Hicks/Top2 Josh Allen

12.1 Matt Hicks/Top2 Kalan Ballage

12.2 AZ/RedraftFootball Factory Sam Darnold

12.3 Rysn/fntsyfbconnect Mark Andrews

12.4 PKRipper/Pyromaniac Joe Williams

12.5 Wheeler/nflmock Chris Godwin

12.6 Rick from The Checkdown Pierre Garcon

Steal of the draft. Locked for 90 catches with Jimmy G under center.

12.7 Marc S/ FF Addicts Eli Manning

12.8 Eric Adams/Top2 Auden Tate

12.9 Josh P/Top2/Dorks Ameer Abdullah

12.10 Dave H/ DynastyDorks Ryan Tannehill

12.11 Derek Brown /FFB 24/7 Cam Meredith

12.12 THE FANTASY TYPHOON Delanie Walker
