![]() In a class full of wide receivers with elite athleticism, Burks stands alone as the outlier. Treylon Burks falling to me at this spot was the best-case scenario. 1.06 – Treylon Burks, WR Arkansas 6’3″225 Justin Hulsey Credit: Arkansas Athletics He reminds me a lot of his former teammate David Montgomery just a little less shifty but with more speed to make up for it. Big and athletic with a proven record as a bell cow, there is a lot to like about the Iowa St. I was tempted to take one of the talented WRs in the class, but with that position being far deeper than the RB crop, I chose to go with Hall. However, with the top 3 QBs off the board, I chose to pivot and take my RB1. Generally, in a Superflex league, I always go QB in the top half of the 1st. Matthew Mitchell Credit: Orlin Wagner | AP 1.05 – Breece Hall, RB Iowa State 6’1″ 220 Dr. Corral blossomed under Lane Kiffin, and he brings strong tools as both a passer and rusher and is a solid candidate to be the top offensive skill player drafted in April. Nail your pick at QB, and you can get any RB you want. But I once made the “mistake” of taking Swift over Herbert in a Superflex league, an anecdote I’m using to highlight the positional premium that exists with this league format. If a team was already set at QB, Breece Hall makes a lot of sense, as I think he can contribute on a fantasy roster from day 1. I was shocked both my QB1 and my RB1 were available at this point, making this decision difficult. ![]() 1.04 – Matt Corral, QB Mississippi 6’0″ 200 Jeff Abercrombie Photo by Joshua McCoy/Ole Miss Athletics He has an NFL-ready cannon for an arm, and he has more than enough mobility to boost his fantasy rushing totals. Who wants to draft a quarterback prospect like Malik Willis when you’ll be fired within two years without showing results? No, I’ll draft the cool and consistent Kenny Pickett here and play the odds for a top landing spot. Why? I believe he is the most NFL-ready prospect in the 2022 class. I believe when all is said and done, NFL teams will see Pickett as the top quarterback amongst this group. By “mock” drafting Pickett here, I am playing a hunch. We have a long, long way to go until the end of April. None of us do, and anyone in the dynasty community who tells you otherwise right now in January is lying to you. I do not pretend to know how NFL teams will view any of the quarterbacks in this class. 1.03 – Kenny Pickett, QB 6’3″ 220 Pittsburgh Keith Ensminger Credit: Michael Miller | The Eagle Spiller is the next in line in the turnover at the top of the fantasy RB landscape. He’s got burst, soft hands, and movement skills that remind me of Alvin Kamara, capable of turning nothing into something. Spiller has done nothing other than shred defenses for the past three years, despite playing on often sub-par A&M offenses. But at this point, not knowing where the QBs will land or who’s getting draft Round 1 capital, I’m more comfortable taking my RB1 or WR1 than a QB, and I’m opting for Spiller over Burks. It’s not likely that I’m taking Spiller here a few months from now. 1.02 – Isaiah Spiller, RB Texas A&M 6’1″ 215 Erik Kortz Credit: Orlin Wagner | AP He has the arm to make all of the throws in the NFL and 38 games of starting experience. He lost his top four weapons to the NFL and had a down year in 2021, “only” throwing for 3056 yards and 24 touchdowns with more than 800 yards rushing. ![]() Sam Howell broke out as a freshman with over 3600 yards and 38 touchdowns. 1.01 – Sam Howell, QB North Carolina 6’1″ 220 Dennis Bennett (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images) Let’s see how they shake out in this draft.
