... I am considering keeping Josh Allen as my QB in my keeper league.
In my league we can keep all our players, none or any number in between and we simply pick up in the draft where our rosters even out with the rest of the teams. If a guy drops everyone and every other owner keeps 2 players that guy gets the first two picks. In the third round previous year standings kick in and it goes on from there. We have a deadline where everyone sends in their keepers and once we know who is keeping how many players we send out a draft order and the list of players kept. We don't know who is keeping who or how many each team is keeping.
I have OBJ, Mike Evans, AJ Green, Alvin Kamara and Aaron Jones who I will be keeping and that will likely have me picking 23-25. Its a 12 team league and pretty much all the the top 10-12 QBs will be kept and if not they will be grabbed up long before I pick.
I just think Allen will take a step up this year and given the QBs that will be available to me I don't foresee any better options (unless I keep Stafford)
The problem is if I keep him it will probably push me back 6-7 draft spots. I could drop him, see who is there when I pick, and if its no one that excites me pick him back up but if someone grabs him before I pick I'll lose out.
I know it seems strange and in a redraft league I'd be leery about having him as my starter but in redraft leagues I have lots of better options available to me.
So there you have it. My potentially first big mistake of the 2019 fantasy season. Most people have not even started thinking about it and here I am struggling over it.
