2019 Updated Mock Draft
1st Round Predictions
I wasn’t planning on doing this since I did my Way Too Early Mock Draft back in March but it’s a Friday, I handled my shit at work this week, and I feel like thinking about Dynasty, so here I am! Lucky you guys.
Pick 1, Bunger — Josh Jacobs, RB (OAK)
Josh Jacobs has jumped up draft boards after being selected in the 1st Round of the NFL Draft, solidifying himself as a Top 2 rookie pick depending on team need. We all know Bunger loves his RB’s so Josh Jacobs it is.
Pick 2, Kevin — David Montgomery, RB (CHI)
N’Keal Harry would be the consensus choice here but Kevin’s stacked team needs a young RB slightly more than he needs additional WR talent in my eyes.
Pick 3, Jeff — N’Keal Harry, WR (NE)
Landing Harry at 3 would be a gift from the Dynasty Gods for Jeff’s rebuilding roster. If not, a choice between Montgomery and Sanders would still be a nice addition to his team.
Pick 4, Anton — Miles Sanders, RB (PHI)
Anton uses his newly acquired pick to keep addressing his unproven RB situation. Sanders was completely off the original mock draft but his athletic profile and 2nd Round NFL selection has catapulted him up Dynasty rankings.
Pick 5, Marlo — DK Metcalf, WR (SEA)
Despite doubt around dynasty circles about Metcalf’s ability to be a well-rounded receiver, he’s held strong in the top 6 of rookie rankings. The NFL Draft paired him with an ideal QB match in Russell Wilson who has arguably the best deep ball in the league.
Pick 6, Josh — TJ Hockenson, TE (DET)
This is a tad aggressive, especially considering Josh drafted Gesicki in the 2nd last year, but Hockenson is considered to be the best TE prospect since OJ Howard. If Hock and Gesicki both pan out, well, Josh can just trade one later.
Pick 7, Joe — AJ Brown, WR (TEN)
Tennessee wasn’t the ideal landing spot most people were expecting for Brown but Joe follows the Titans lead and pairs AJ with Corey Davis on his own fantasy team as well.
Pick 8, Josh — Deebo Samuel, WR (SF)
Another aggressive pick for Josh compared to most rankings but he is a 49er fan so it can’t be ruled out. Besides, you could swap players between Picks 5 through 12 and it wouldn’t be surprising for this draft class.
Pick 9, Jason—Noah Fant, TE (DEN)
Like Josh, Jason grabbed a TE in last years draft in Mark Andrews but with only a 3rd Round investment. Noah Fant is a much higher rated prospect and a worthy selection at Pick 9.
Pick 10, Anton — Kyler Murray, QB (ARI)
Anton played around last year talking up Lamar Jackson as his 1st Round D|League pick but with a much murkier QB situation these days, he decides it’s time to take the plunge on a rookie QB and hope it turns out as well as Josh’s decision to grab Baker.
Pick 11, Binh — Darrell Henderson, RB (LAR)
This just makes too much sense. Binh’s a Rams fan and he has Todd Gurley on his roster.
Pick 12, Bunger — Parris Campbell, WR (IND)
Bunger gladly ends Campbell’s mini fall here in this mock draft. Parris is another player who wasn’t on the original mock but his athletic traits, pairing with Andrew Luck, and 2nd Round NFL pedigree has moved him up draft boards.
Pick 13, Kevin — Marquise Brown, WR (BAL)
Brown and Metcalf have polar opposite body types but Brown is another WR getting doubt around the dynasty community. The last time Kevin drafted a WR that most people stayed away from was JuJu Smith-Schuster so he gladly takes the risk here again.
Pick 14, JR — Damien Harris, RB (NE)
JR could use some RB depth and although Harris will start his career behind Sony Michel, Michel dealt with injuries his rookie year and had a knee scope this offseason. Harris should be at worst, a viable fantasy option if Sony misses games and at best, he takes over the starting job completely.
Pick 15, Anton — Mecole Hardman, WR (KC)
Who knows what’s going on with the Tyreek Hill situation but Hardman clearly looks to be the Chiefs contingency plan after making the fairly unknown prospect the 5th WR taken in the NFL Draft. Anton takes the chance at a slice of the Chiefs offense.
