Fantasy Football mock draft: 15 rounds for 10-team PPR league
By Jon Dove
Team 1: Dan Bailey, K, Cowboys
Bailey has a big leg which could give Team 1 some extra points. He’s also very consistent and won’t miss opportunities to score.
Team 2: Wil Lutz, K, Saints
Here’s another kicker on a strong offense that should be able to keep pace with the rest of the league.
Team 3: Nyheim Hines, RB, Colts
Hines hasn’t looked great during the preseason and may need some time until he’s able to contribute. Maybe the biggest issue is his four fumbles. Most NFL coaches have no patience for that type of carelessness.
Team 4: Philip Rivers, QB, Chargers
This is an absolute steal here for Team 4. Rivers has consistently put up strong fantasy numbers and is surrounded by some impressive talent. I wouldn’t be surprised if he kept pace with quarterbacks drafted several rounds earlier.
Team 5: Jake Elliott, K, Eagles
Elliott emerged last year as one of the more clutch kickers in the league. He has a big leg and Doug Pederson isn’t afraid to give a chance at a long field goal.
Team 6: Matt Bryant, K, Falcons
Consistency is the name of the game for Matt Bryant. He’s a reliable source of fantasy production from the kicker position.
Team 7: Matt Prater, K, Lions
Prater is known for his big leg which hasn’t lost any power after leaving Denver’s thin air.
My Team: Chris Boswell, K, Steelers
Boswell doesn’t get enough credit for having to play half of his games in Pittsburgh. That stadium is a nightmare for kickers, but he finds a way to put it through the uprights.
Team 9: Mason Crosby, K, Packers
Aaron Rodgers always gets his offense humming which puts Crosby in position to wrack up fantasy points.
Team 10: Giovani Bernard, RB, Bengals
This is great value for Team 10 as Bernard is one Joe Mixon injury away from being the featured back in Cincinnati. However, he still has a role in the Bengals offense with a healthy Mixon.
