I feel the Steelers, Ravens or Texans will upset KC in the playoffs. Could the Bengals get in? Will Tua turn around the D'awphulins?

The Ravens and possibly the Texans would be favored over KC. The Ravens look like the #1 team in the NFL. Derrick Henry is just wild. Most overused back in the league for years, and aside from the freak accident broken foot, I don't think I've ever even seen a Q by his name. How is he not a first ballot HOFer?! To me he's the current heir in the Barry-LT-AP line of generational RBs, but PFR seems to think he has a long way to go.

Henry at his size and age is breaking off huge runs. At his pace he should get to 12,000 yards and over 110 TDs, which could help get him in first ballot. A championship--though I dont believe Jackson will pull it off--would be icing on the cake.

Now that Henry has just broken 10,000 yards I can’t help but ask, but do you think there are any other active running backs who could run for 10,000 yards?

Its tough but maybe Chubb?, Barkley ... Elliott may not get there and Cooks if he can ever be activated? Kamara, if he can stay healthy ...

What about CMC? Don't think any of those guys except Saquon have a shot, all except Zeke are too far out and he looks done.

Yep CMC ... think of how many people put him on their fantasy rosters? The 49ers might have known he would miss time but kept it under wraps?

I drafted Jordan Mason on all my teams...

Playing FFB for the first time in over ten years. Also, the first time ever for money as well as with people who I see and actually know (all of them coworkers). I was the #1 draft pick and picked CMC. I also picked Pacheco as well. It's not an excuse, I think I'd be struggling anyway, but I am at the bottom at 1-6 thus far; everyone else 3-4 or better, 6 of 10 teams make the playoffs. Of course me being old-school, I asked the LM ahead of time that it be 4-of-10 instead, but I should be glad its what it is (my only chance to rally at this point).

It's simply an example - Fantasy of Reality - that having the #1 draft pick isn't "everything". I, honestly, was leery about CMC given his injury past (maybe he hit his ceiling). But I simply could not try to get "cute" and assume something that may never even happen. But it did and that's that. Yes, picking 10th and (snake draft) you pick #11 right away is maybe not so bad (as opposed to not picking again until #20).

Going Derrick Henry over Tyreek at the 7th pick has done wonders. Can't say the same for any other picks besides Joe Mixon.
