I landed the 3rd pick in Snack Draft for a non-PPR, Keeper league. You give up 1 round to "keep" i.e. a 5th round pick that is kept, forfeits a 4th round pick this year.

I drafted Gibbs in the second round last year so planned to "keep" him to effectively ensure a Top 5 pick but am now second guessing.

Other options:

• Josh Jacobs - forfeit 2 round pick
• George Pickens - forfeit 5 round
• Kyler Murray - forfeit 6 round (6 PT passing TDs)
• David Njoku - forfeit 6 round
• Jameson Williams - forfeit 10 round
• Quentin Johnston - forfeit 10 round

I am leaning towards giving up Gibbs for one of the Top 3 guys then shifting my Keeper to Josh Jacobs or Jameson Williams

From a draft value perspective, I think Jameson is the only big value adding player. I realize with keepers Jacob's might not be there at your round 2 pick, but id rather a Bucky, JT or Chase Brown.

Now if you know who is being kept there may not be any running backs as Bucky and Brown are likely keepers. At which point you might need at least 1 of Gibbs/Jacobs so you dont have to reach for a running back.

how many keepers is each owner allowed?

in non-PPR...I think I would keep Jacobs

especially if this is a 12-team league and your 2nd round pick would be #22

1 Keeper. Very competitive 12 team league.

Quite torn between Jacobs or Jameson Williams. Need to decide by tomorrow.

Jacobs is a 2nd round ADP you can keep in the 2nd. Jameson is a 5th round ADP you can keep in the 10th.

I'd be tempted to keep Jacobs if your league is RB heavy, can prob get Gibbs, Barkley or Bijan with that #3 pick anyway or you may get lucky with Chase in that 3 spot. Either way you've got a top 10 RB in the late 2nd rd of a keeper league which isn't bad
Only other one I'd consider is Jameson. Great value

How I would look at it:
With pick 3 will I get Chase, Gibbs, Bijan, Barkley or Henry? If yes then keep Jameson
With round 2 are you willing to take Kyren williams and or with 3rd round pick will you be comfortable reaching for Henderson? Maybe round 7 and 8 take Ford and Skattebo.

If you aren't okay with those running backs then maybe you need to keep Jacobs

Agree with the thought processes.

Yes. With the 3rd pick, I am effectively guaranteed to get one of Chase, Gibbs, Bijan, Barkley or Henry,

Jacobs seems like the safer pick. Secure a top 10 RB / Top 20 Overall with pick ~20.

Williams is attractive because of the value of the keeper but in general is more of a risk / reward player.

I am leaning towards Jacobs at this point.

All fair.

Would you trade Josh jacobs plus Skattebo / Golden /Higgins
For
McBride / Kyren / JSN plus Jameson Williams?

Can you maybe trade one of those guys to someone to upgrade a draft pick?

Jamo, all day.

Confirmed no one has the consensus Top 5 guys (Chase, Gibbs, Bijan, Barkley or Henry) as Keepers so will be able to grab one with the #3 pick.

I am going to play it safe and keep Jacobs to sure up my RB position.

The value maximizer in me want to keep Jameson but playing it slightly safe with Jacobs. Guaranteed touches, etc.

Wise move.

in non-PPR...two stud RB's win the league

as my Saquon-Henry team would confirm from last season

Jacobs is the clear answer in that league…good call.

Gonna just piggy back here instead of starting a new thread...

I get to keep 3, which 3 would you take (PPR league):

Jahmyr Gibbs - Keep with Pick #20, can keep up to two more times
Devon Achane - Keep with Pick #110, this is last time I can keep him
Chase Brown - Keep with Pick #100, can keep up to two more times
Brock Bowers - Keep with Pick #80, can keep up to two more times

Chase and Bowers are automatic yes.
I think id lean Gibbs over Achane. That is one more year of value and you dont have to worry about that calf injury. Also with keepers pick 20 is more like pick 30 or 35 in a regular draft.

I'd go Gibbs, Achane, and Bowers.

I think Gibbs and Bowers are locks. Coin flip between Brown and Achane.
