(S18) - PT2 - Wha-What’s your Fant-ta-tasy!

[Jay_Doctor]

Being in my first season, a lot of this is still very knew to me. While I’m a big fan of fantasy football, I didn’t think I would know enough info to make informed picks. Being a part of the DSFL, I have been paying close attention to the action thus far. I’m going to break down how I a couple key positions I would draft based on what I’ve seen in the DSFL this season, plus how I think things will finish.
My top overall pick is a no-brainer. I would take Orien Drake 1st overall if I were so lucky. Drake has been running away from the competition to this point. He is 300 yards ahead of the net closest running back and shows no signs of slowing down. Not only that, he is also tied for the most rushing touchdowns as well. Volume is a big part of his success, but if he can manage this workload expect him to finish as the top fantasy option of the season. One reason for Drake’s success is the competition he is up against. Every day he gets to practice against the best rush defense in the DSFL.

Next, I would grab my boy Rayne Gordon at WR for the Coyotes. Leaning Coyote heavy here, but I really like what they have done this far. Rayne is a guy who has flown under the radar. In an offense that is run dominant, he and Lovote have posted solid numbers early on. While Lovote has snagged more touchdowns than Gordon, I expect that to change as things move forward. I get to watch him practice every day and the dude never quits working.

Lastly, I would grab the Coyotes defense. I will be the first to admit that the Luchadores have the top defense in the DSFL this season. They hold their opponents in check and force a lot of turnovers. I’m banking on them getting drafted earlier than I feel comfortable taking a defense in fantasy football (much like the way people drafted the Bears defense this season), so I hold off and grab the second best one later on. The Coyotes have struggled against the pass so far but have been dominant in the run game. They also force a lot of turnovers and post good special teams numbers. Mason Blaylock’s punt return for a touchdown is what it’s all about in fantasy, so I would ride with them through the rest of the season.
