The Late Round Quarterback Assumption Draft: March Edition
Fantasy fantatics have been mock drafting since the NFL season ended, but with so many player question marks, how worthwhile are these draft results? While I may be thinking that Steven Jackson is a Ram next season, another draft participant may think he’ll be a Falcon. There’s a clear difference in overall value for uncertain players.
In order to close these assumptions, the Late Round Quarterback crew has decided to stop all potential beliefs with the first ever Assumption Mock Draft. The draft, as the name says, is based on assumptions: We know where players will play in 2013, and we know where rookies will land as well.
What happens when Wes Welker is on the Bears? Or what about Greg Jennings in a Browns uniform? Do their ADPs change, or do they simply remain the same?
For our March draft, the Late Round Quarterback writers have joined up with six other fantasy obsessors, making a 12-team mock. You can view the draft here. The draft will begin Monday, March 4th and will be updated here on LateRoundQB.com with commentary. Each participant is listed below:
