Round 7: Rhamondre Stevenson (ADP: 65th)

Any experienced fantasy player would tell you that the Patriots always do the running back position by committee. Stevenson is coming off a tragic performance last season with only 619 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns. This offense will be the worst in the league and he may be the only person who is fantasy-relevant. The additional concern for Stevenson is that the Patriots will be trailing in most of their games this season which means that they won’t be running the ball a lot which could spell lots of trouble for Stevenson just like last year.


Round 8: Keenan Allen (ADP: 84th)

Keenan Allen is being drafted for name value on a trending team with the Chicago Bears. However, we must remember that this is a stacked wide receiver room with DJ Moore and Rome Odunze also on this team. Keenan Allen was the primary option on the Chargers last year, but on this Bears team, he may be as low as the third option at times. This, combined with his injury history, makes Keenan Allen a concerning pick at this spot.


Round 9: Jordan Addison (ADP: 120th)

Jordan Addison has a load of problems that make him nearly undraftable. Firstly, his recent legal troubles could lead to a suspension for Addison to open the season. Secondly, his quarterback play is expected to decline as the team transitions from Kirk Cousins to Sam Darnold. Thirdly, he was insanely inconsistent last year as he had a few breakout weeks but way more weeks that he scored under 7 points. With him being unquestionably the second wide receiver option on this team behind Jefferson, Addison will be extremely inconsistent all year as managers struggle to figure out when to start him and when to bench him.
