Summary

Looking back at last week's 3-WR, 0.5 PPR mock draft, the guys have to justify their selections! We know who they picked, but why did they make those picks? We present them with alternatives and see if there were better strategies available. We start with Heath (5:00) justifying his selections of players coming off disappointing seasons, Breece Hall over Tyreek Hill in Round 3 and Alvin Kamara instead of a WR in Round 4 (11:15) ... Jamey (16:25) is justifying De'Von Achane over Kyren Williams and Derrick Henry. Will Achane get more carries next season? Jamey also passed on Josh Allen at the 3/4 turn for a couple of wide receivers (20:30) and that leads us to a long quarterback discussion. Finally, Jamey talks about picking Mark Andrews 61st overall ... Dave has to Justify It (26:15)! Amon-Ra St. Brown ahead of a number of running backs, Allen over George Kittle in Round 4 and his picks and strategies in Round 6-8 ...
