????????????????


I definitely was not decisive in knowing who I was going to pick whereas in the first three rounds, it was nearly a given. Here were my options

RB:
Lynch
Rice

Moreno

WR:
Owens
Royal
Jackson
Edwards

TE:
Gates

All of those WR’s have some sort of question mark around them and I was unsure on pulling the trigger when there were more sure players at other positions. Problem with Lynch is clearly his 3 game suspension and with Gates, the TE position is incredibly deep from my perspective, and the top guys value lessen to me when this is the case. At the end of it, I chose Lynch as I felt that he was worth the wait here and I could take my time on a TE later in the draft. I’ll separate round 5 & 6 respectively into separate posts.
