2023 IDP Superflex Rookie Mock Draft 1.0

February 23, 2023 by Bob Miller

2023 IDP Superflex Rookie Mock Draft 1.0

By Bob Miller (@DynastyBobFF)

 

The SuperBowl is behind us, and Dynasty season has officailly begun. Everyone is gathering information on these upcoming rookies to get the advantage on their opponents this offseason. Last week I posted my Superflex Rookie Mock Draft. Now let's take a look at my first 2023 IDP Superflex Rookie Mock Draft of this offseason, so you can get an edge in your IDP league.

 

1.01: Bryce Young, QB1, Alabama

Like I said in last week's Superflex Rookie Mock Draft, Young's size and arm strength are two things that concern me a little, however his potential to be a star can't be denied. He has that unteachable skill of making something out of nothing when a play breaks down. If all goes well he could be a combination of Jalen Hurts and Russell Wilson. He has a super high ceiling and a pretty high floor. For that reason I'm taking him with the 1st overall pick.

 

1.02: Bijan Robinson, RB1, Texas

I’m gonna go with Bijan Robinson here at 1.02. I could give you a list of reasons to draft Bijan here, but I'll just say this.. He looks like the best running back prospect we've seen since Saquon Barkley. No matter the landing spot, he will be a top three dynasty running back when drafted. Pick him with confidence.

 

1.03: CJ Stroud, QB2, Ohio State

I've been pretty high on CJ Stroud all year, and nothing has changed. He's a incredibly smart quarterback with great instincts. More of a pocket passer, but he has the moves to get away from pressure. What really sticks out is his excellent arm and ball placement. There's not a throw he can't make. He is a proven winner and is NFL ready right now. Depending on where he is drafted, there's a chance he could be my 1.01 by traning camp.

 

1.04: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR1, Ohio State

Personally I would absolutely consider taking Jackson Smith-Njigba over Bijan Robinson, but that’s not going to happen in most rookie drafts. JSN is the clear cut WR1 in this year's draft to me. I want you to think of Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave, his former teammates at Ohio State. Guess what, Jaxon Smith-Njigba is better than both of them. He could/should be a top 8 dynasty WR as soon as next season. Cross your fingers that he's available at 1.04 or 1.05.

 

1.05: Jahmyr Gibbs, RB2, Alabama

Jahmyr Gibbs is a weapon, and should be a top 5 rookie pick. He is a big play threat that has been often compared to Alvin Kamara. That comparison may be a little aggressive. With exception to Christian McCaffrey, Alvin Kamara is the best pass catching running back in the NFL. We can't put Gibbs there just yet, however he is going to be an asset in PPR leagues. I see a lot of Austin Ekeler with him. Draft him with confidence, as he has the potential of being a Top 10 dynasty RB for years to come.

 

1.06: Jordan Addison, WR2, USC

At 6’0” and 170 lbs, Jordan Addison is being compared quite often to Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith. This is a very good comparison. Addison is not quite as polished as Smith, however he is an incredible route runner with good speed. This former Biletnikoff Award winner is my WR2 in rookie drafts. He's an absolute playmaker.

 

1.07: Anthony Richardson, QB3, Florida

Wherever Richardson ends up, he should be a high end pick in superflex rookie drafts. He has the potential to be the next Jalen Hurts, or some would say the next Malik Willis. With his experience playing in the SEC, I see Richardson being NFL ready. A lot of analysts have Will Levis ranked ahead of Richardson here. Not me.. Richardson's rushing ability is what separates him from Will Levis for me in fantasy.

 

1.08: Zay Flowers, WR3, Boston College

At 5’10” and 173 lbs, there are several who doubt Zay Flowers NFL potential. I’m not one of those doubters. This speedster posted 1,077 yds and 12 TDs this past season for Boston College. His fantastic body control helped him catch 50% of his contested catch targets as well. If he lands with a good coordinator that moves him around, he could be a stud in PPR leagues.

 

1.09: Will Levis, QB4, Kentucky

Levis is a 6’3” 230 lb quarterback with a rocket for an arm. He is a great athlete who runs well to pick up those extra yards. Please forgive me for saying this, but he looks a lot like Josh Allen coming out of college. I’m not saying he is the next Josh Allen, but potential is certainly there. If he ends up with a good offensive coordinator, the sky is certainly the limit for this rookie quarterback.

 

1.10: Quentin Johnston, WR4, TCU

At 6’4” 215 lbs, Johnston has the looks of the next Superstar wide receiver, however I'm not sold on him. He has good burst and acceleration for his size, however his route running is lackluster at best. I'm not sure how he is going to match up against NFL caliber cornerbacks. They could eat him alive. A lot of rankings have Johnston listed as their WR1 or WR2.. not me. Even though I'm not the biggest fan, it's crazy to let him slip out of the first round of a rookie draft, so I'll take him here with the 10th pick.

 

1.11: Jalin Hyatt, WR5, Tennessee

This year’s Biletnikoff Award winner is flying up the draft boards, both in fantasy drafts and the actual NFL draft. Hyatt has phenomenal speed and acceleration, and is a big play ready to happen at any time. Posting 1,257 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns in the SEC cannot go ignored. Hyatt could potentially end up in my Top 3 rookie wide receivers before the NFL Draft in April. He is a big-time talent.

 

1.12: Zach Charbonnet, RB3, UCLA

The more I see of Zach Charbonnet, the more I like. He’s not going to blow you away with any numbers at the Rookie Combine, he’s just a damn good running back. At 6’1” and 220 lbs he has the build to be a three-down back in the NFL. He’s a north/south runner with great vision and good burst. He’s also shown that he has good hands as he caught 37 passes last year at UCLA. He’s projected as a 2nd round pick in the NFL, so he should be a starting RB sooner than later.

 

2.01: Hendon Hooker, QB5, Tennessee

If Hendon Hooker doesn’t suffer a season-ending injury, he would have won the Heisman Trophy. If that were to have happened, he quite possibly would have been the top quarterback in this year's draft. At 6’4” and 210 lbs Hooker has the size that you’re looking for. He is extremely intelligent, and does not turn the ball over. There's no denying his athleticism as Hooker was fantastic rushing the ball as well. He has all the tools to become the next star quarterback in the NFL. Get as much of his stock as you can.

 

2.02: Zach Evans, RB4, Ole Miss

Zach Evans could be a steal here in the 2nd round. He is a high upside running back with incredible elusiveness. He’s not much of a pass catcher, which will limit his production in PPR leagues. Regardless, he has all the tools to be great. He could be this year’s Kenneth Walker.

 

2.03: Tank Bigsby, RB5, Auburn

(AP Photo/Butch Dill)

Tank Bigsby has been an incredible talent dating back to high school, when he was one of the top recruits in the nation. At 6’0” 215 lbs, he possesses all the tools you’re looking for in a running back. He’s a one-cut runner with explosiveness and posted an impressive 4.16 yards after contact last year for the Auburn Tigers. I’d be very happy to get him here at the 2.02. It won’t take long for him to take over an NFL backfield. Tank Bigsby is this year’s Dameon Pierce.

 

2.04: Will Anderson Jr, EDGE1, Alabama

Our first IDP comes off the board here at 2.04. Will Andrson Jr is an absolute freak of a talent that could be the 1st overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft. He has been hyped for years now, and he has not disappointed. He has elite speed, power, and an incredible spin move that will keep those offensive tackles guessing. He should be an elite IDP asset immediately. He could rise up my board the closer we get to training camp.

 

2.05: Michael Mayer, TE1, Notre Dame

With Tight End being so thin in fantasy football, Michael Mayer has been rising up my board. There's only a rare few tight ends who have surpassed 2,000 receiving yards during their collegiate career, and Mayer happens to be one of those players. He is NFL ready as a pass catcher and a blocker. He's not as athletic as Kyle Pitts, but I see more of a Dallas Goedert/Zach Ertz type of player here. The desperation for a productive Tight End in fantasy football pushes Michael Mayer’s value up the board.

 

2.06: Kayshon Boutte, WR6, LSU

Boutte possesses all the tools to be a top-tier wide receiver, however he was wildly inconsistent following his freshman year at LSU. A lot of folks out there see that LSU jersey and immediately want to refer to Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase. Let's get one thing straight, Kayshon Boutte is not in the same class as either of those two wide receivers. I see him being more of a complimentary WR2 in an NFL offense. He should still be fairly productive.

 

2.07: Josh Downs, WR7, North Carolina

Josh Downs has limited upside in the NFL due to his size, however I could see him being a very good slot receiver moving forward. Similar to Zay flowers, Downs needs to land in the right system to be a productive fantasy wide receiver. The New England Patriots will most likely be losing Jakobi Myers to free agency, so this would be an ideal landing spot for Downs.

 

2.08: Kendre Miller, RB6, TCU

Thing best that happened to Kendra Miller was Zach Evans transferring to Ole miss. With Evans out of the picture, Miller excelled as a rusher. In fact, this past season he rushed for an impressive 1,399 yards and 17 touchdowns. That production can't be ignored by NFL Scouts. Miller has the potential to be a lead back in the NFL, and for that reason I have no problem selecting him in the middle of the second round.

 

2.09: Sean Tucker, RB7, Syracuse

Similar to tank Bigsby, Sean Tucker possesses the tools you're looking for in an NFL Running back. He has solid size and power, but his speed and quickness is what makes him the most attractive. He needs a lot of work with his pass catching and pass blocking. If he can improve in those two areas, he could be a steal here in the middle/late of the second round.

 

2.10: Tyree Wilson, EDGE2, Texas Tech

A quick, powerful edge rusher that’s built for the NFL.. that’s what Tyree Wilson is. He’s a strong tackler with a high motor. He has all the tools to be an extremely productive IDP for years to come. Position eligibility in your league will affect where you draft Wilson. If he is defensive end eligible on myfantasyleague.com, then he should be drafted right after Will Anderson Jr. If you are on Sleeper with dual eligibility, then this is a good spot to take him.

 

2.11: Drew Sanders: LB1 Arkansas

Sanders projects to be a true linebacker in the NFL. He has great instincts and fantastic sideline-to-sideline speed. He was also quite successful as an edge rusher as well. Unfortunately he is undersized to be a true EDGE in the NFL, but he has great speed that will help him get to a QB when he is needed to do so. He was an abslute nightmare for opposing offenses as he just reaked havok. He's someone I'm very excited about drafting this year.

 

2.12: Lukas Van Ness, EDGE3, Iowa

At 6’5” and 275 lbs, Van Ness is a monster of an edge rusher. Nicknamed “Hercules” by his teammates, he has the power to overwhelm NFL offensive lineman. He will need to rely on his power as he doesn’t have elite speed. He’s still a little raw due to only playing college football for 2 years. The talent and strength to dominate is there, so I’m taking him here at the end of the 2nd round. I’ll put him on my taxi squad to give him time to develop.

 

3.01: Devon Achane, RB8, Texas A&M

Devon Achane has world-class speed. Aside from being a running back, Achane also ran as a sprinter for the Texas A&M track team and has a verified 10.14 second time in the 100-meter dash. He has consistently broken the 4.3-second mark in the 40-yard dash in training for the scouting combine. He ran for over 1,100 yards and caught 36 passes in his one season as the lead RB for Texas A&M. Achane also has two kick return TDs in his three-year collegiate career. I think he could be the next “Isiah Pacheco” type of player, however I could also see him ending up as nothing more than a kick returner.

 

3.02: Kenny McIntosh, RB9, Georgia

Okay, I am higher on Kenny McIntosh than most fantasy analysts out there. Reports out of the Senior Bowl is that McIntosh stood out more than any other running back. He's a fantastic pass catcher, and for that reason he will have value in PPR leagues. If he ends up in a system that gives him touches as a runner, he could be an incredible value here at pick 3.02.

3.03: Rashee Rice, WR8, SMU

I'm going to be honest, Rashee Rice may not make it to pick 2.11 in my mock draft 2.0. The more I see of him, the more that I like. At 6’2” and 205 lbs he has the size and speed to excel in the NFL. He had an impressive 2022 finishing with 96 receptions with 1,355 yards and 10 touchdowns. He's a well-rounded receiver that could end up being an NFL team's WR2 for years to come.

 

3.04: Israel Abanikanda, RB10, Pitt

“Izzy” Abanikanda may not be the most talented RB in the class, however he is a smart, patient runner who always picks up positive yards. This past season he had an impressive 1,431 rushing yards and 20 touchdowns. He’s a north/south grinder that could really help a team like the LA Chargers or Arizona Cardinals. I’m grabbing RBs at this point with the hopes of hitting on one.

 

3.05: Cedric Tillman, WR9, Tennessee

Tillman has great 50/50 ball skills and is a very physical WR. He is a very good blocker in the running game and in the screen game as well. His ability to track the deep ball is borderline elite, but his lack of gamebreaking speed will cause issues in separation. He sustained a serious ankle injury this past season at Tennessee and underwent surgery. He has incredible talent, but he will have to prove his durability at the next level.

 

3.06: Stetson Bennett, QB6, Georgia

This 25 year old QB is big game tested, and he has the arm strength to make most NFL throws. He’s a confident player that sees the field very well. He especially stands out if a play breaks down with his high football IQ and quick-thinking. With as many injuries at the quarterback position as we’ve seen in the NFL, Bennett could very well be a starting QB by mid-season. To grab him in the 3rd round of a Superflex draft could be highway robbery.

 

3.07: Marvin Mims, WR10, Oklahoma

Marvin Mims is one of those receivers who had success straight out of the gate in college. A blemish on his chances in the draft is his smaller stature, but he plays bigger than his frame suggests. He will not blow defenders away off the block, but he is fantastic at gaining momentum as he runs. I do worry that teams will want to utilize his ability as a returner and ignore him as a receiver on normal downs, but if they don’t make that mistake he’s sure to be an incredible value in the draft. We’re banking on the right situation uncorking his full abilities.

 

3.08: Jalen Carter, DE1, Georgia

Jalen Carter could be one of the best interior pass rushers we’ve seen in recent years. Please forgive me for picking him at 3.08, but his tackle numbers will probably be low. Just like most edge rushers, if he doesn’t get a sack, he may only score a few points. However, with the Dynasty Pros IDP Scoring System rewarding tackles-for-loss, I’m sure he will rise up my draft board multiple times before training camp begins. He is a stud, there’s no getting around it. I’d be perfectly fine if you grabbed him at the top of the 3rd round to be honest.

 

3.09: Trenton Simpson, LB2, Clemson

Trenton Simpson is a prospect that has all the tools to be a productive LB in fantasy leagues. He’s a sure and violent wrap-up tackler with sideline-to-sideline range. He’s an excellent tackler in space, showing loose hips and the ability to break down and contain runners. We need to see where he’s drafted, because a good system will certainly help. Keep in mind that he is a prospect, and he will need some time to develop. 

 

3.10: Dalton Kincaid, TE2, Utah

Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports

Kincaid is a former basketball player who plays tight end. A bit of a raw prospect but has excellent ball skills and some scary upside. Dalton Kincaid would be best suited to a team where he does not have to block a ton and can be used in a “big-slot” role in the early stages of his career. He will obviously have plenty of usage in the red zone with his skill set. He still has a long way to go as a blocker and might be a little smaller than we like at tight end but to get this upside in the third round has me thrilled.

 

3.11: Darnell Washington, TE3, Georgia

 

At 6’7” and 280 lbs Darnell Washington is an absolute specimen.There's no denying that. With all that size, Darnell can also run. His 4.63 40-yard dash puts him better than average for any tight end prospect; let alone one as big and as strong as him. Washington is still a bit raw, but with his blocking ability, and short to intermediate pass catching ability, he will be a useful tool in fantasy football; especially at a position that lacks options. He is worthy of being picked here in the 3rd round.

 

3.12: Roschon Johnson, RB11, Texas

If not for fellow Longhorn Bijan Robinson, Johnson would have been a very productive starter at Texas.. or anywhere else in the country for that matter. Our head Devy writer Tommy Harvey loves Johnson. In his opinion, Johnson is the most underrated RB in this draft class and could be an absolute steal in the 3rd round.

 

4.01: Tyjae Spears, RB12, Tulane

With running back being deep in this year's class, it’s unfortunate that Tyjae Spears doesn't stand out. Due to his size of 5’10” and 195 lbs he lacks the bulk to be a 15 touch guy. However, I can see him being a third down/complimentary type of back because of his skills in open space. If he lands on a good offense, he should be useful in PPR leagues.

 

4.02: Brian Branch, S1, Alabama

Brian Branch is hands down the best safety in this draft class. He’s excellent in zone coverage and super versatile as he can play in the box as a strong safety, corner, nickel or even deep free safety. He's an outstanding tackler who is a physical run supporter. All of this tells me that he should be very productive in fantasy. He's not as good as Kyle Hamilton from last season's draft, but he should be a nice addition to your IDP stable.

4.03: Eric Gray, RB13, Oklahoma

This is the point in the draft where I start grabbing RBs with the hopes of getting this year’s Dameon Pierce/Isiah Pecheco. I grabbed Gray here due to his potential. He is a violent runner with a rare blend of balance, agility, and instinct. He may be drafted as depth to start, but he could take over a backfield sooner than later. Dallas or Carolina would be a great spot for him to land.

 

4.04: Parker Washington, WR11, Penn State

Washington has a way of getting open as he showed last season at Penn State. He’s an absolute catch-and-run threat, as he is dangerous in the open field. He has strong hands and isn’t afraid to work the middle of the field. At 5’10” and 215 lbs he is projected to be a slot receiver in the NFL. His pro comp to me is Randall Cobb. If your fantasy league gives you points for return yards, Washington may help you there too.

 

4.05: Myles Murphy, EDGE4, Clemson

Myles Murphy has everything you want in an edge rusher. Speed, Power, Skill, Instinct, and a high motor. I really have had a hard time waiting to pick him in drafts. His skill and lower body power is phenomenal. He has great bend and a fantastic spin move that will give quarterbacks nightmares. He should be an assett in IDP leagues and will rise up my board in my upcoming mocks. He's a player that you need to target in  your draft.

 

4.06: BJ Ojulari, EDGE5, LSU

I'm sure you are familiar with his older brother Azeez Ojulari. He was drafted in the second round by the New York Giants in 2021. BJ Ojulari has a high football IQ with great instincts. He has an arsenal of pass-rushing moves, including an elite spin move. BJ Ojulari is just another example of how deep edge rushers are in this class. However, he's not a three-down player and will likely be drafted as a pass-rushing specialist, limiting his opportunties to score points in IDP leagues. 

 

4.07: Xavier Hutchison, WR12, Iowa State

Hutchison isn’t the best athlete, but he’s a very good football player. At 6’3” 210 lbs he has the frame to be a solid outside wide receiver in the NFL. The 2022 first team all-american Has the size, length, and strength to defeat press coverage. He’s a great 50/50 ball guy as well, as he made multiple spectacular catches over his career at Iowa State. Don't blow you away with his speed, however he's a good open-field runner with enough agility to break tackles in the NFL. He’s absolutely worth a grab here in the 3rd round.

 

4.08: Nolan Smith, EDGE6, Georgia

There's no denying that Nolan Smith is an elite athlete at outside linebacker. The former five-star prospect has the speed of a corner, combined with the strength of a middle linebacker. His potential is huge, however, he's never been a consistently dominant player on the field and relies on speed and power to mask a very limited skillset of pass-rushing moves. If he ends up in a pass-rushing friendly system like Philadelphia or Pittsburgh, he could turn out to be a valuable assett in most IDP leagues.

4.09: DeWayne McBride, RB14, UAB

Super productive as a runner at UAB, McBride was not utilized in the passing game very often. That is my main question with him. He has good size and is very violent at the point of contact. He also has decent, but not great speed. I think the 3rd/4th round turn is a solid spot to draft him.

 

4.10: Rakim Jarrett, WR13, Maryland

Rakim Jarrett has one of the traits that can make it easier for him to get on the field sooner, and that is the ability to run after the catch. NFL offenses love simple plays to get the ball in space in the hands of guys who know how to move with it. He is a bit undersized and I am not sure about him making contested catches or being a threat downfield. If he can find the right spot, he can produce.

 

4.11: Keion White, DE2, Georgia Tech

White has freakish speed for a near 300 lb man. He also possesses a fantastic spin moves and a high motor. He doesn't project to be a big time scorer in IDP, however if your playing on myfantasyleague, his defensive line elegibilty could prove to be useful.

4.12: Isaiah Foskey, EDGE7, Notre Dame

Isaiah Foskey is a violent pass-rusher that is only going to improve in the NFL. He doesn't have elite pass-rushing skills, however he makes up for a lot with his attitude you could say. He plays angry and nasty and doesn't give up on plays. He uses his size and strength very well. Only time will tell how he does in the NFL, but I'm willing to take a shot on him here at the end of the 4th.

2023 Superflex Rookie Mock Draft 2.0

February 17, 2023 by Bob Miller

2023 Superflex Rookie Mock Draft 2.0

By Bob Miller (@DynastyBobFF)

 

The SuperBowl is behind us, and Dynasty season has officailly begun. Everyone is gathering information on these upcoming rookies to get an edge on their opponents this offseason. Rookie picks are being traded all over the place, so let's take a look at my latest 2023 Superflex Rookie Mock Draft, so you can get an edge in your league.

 

 

1.01: CJ Stroud, QB1, Ohio State

How about a little controversy to start things off? Most everyone has Bijon Robinson as their chalk 1.01 no matter the format. Not me, I just can’t fall victim to drafting a RB at 1.01 in Superflex again. I keep thinking of 2019 when I took Clyde Edwards-Helaire with the first pick. What a bust he’s turned out to be. Some others actually took Jonathan Taylor at the 1.01. Looking back, I'm not sure any of us would prefer to have either of those running backs over the likes of Joe Burrow or Justin Herbert. For that reason I’m taking CJ Stroud with the first overall pick.

 

1.02: Bijan Robinson, RB1, Texas

I’m gonna go with Bijan Robinson here for two reasons: First, because I have some concerns about Bryce Young’s size and durability. Second, Bijan Robinson looks like the best running back prospect we've seen since Saquon Barkley. No matter the landing spot, he will be a top three dynasty running back when drafted. Pick him with confidence.

 

1.03: Bryce Young, QB2, Alabama

Like I said previously, I do have some concerns about Bryce Young. His size and arm strength are the two things that concern me the most, however his potential to be a star can't be denied. He has that unteachable skill of making something out of nothing when a play breaks down. If all goes well he could be a combination of Jalen Hurts and Russell Wilson. He has a super high ceiling and a pretty high floor. For that reason I wouldn’t blame you if you draft him ahead of Bijan Robinson at 1.01 or 1.02.

 

1.04: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR1, Ohio State

Personally I would absolutely consider taking Jackson Smith-Njigba over Bijan Robinson, but that’s not going to happen in most rookie drafts. JSN is the clear cut WR1 in this year's draft to me. I want you to think of Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave, his former teammates at Ohio State. Guess what, Jaxon Smith-Njigba is better than both of them. He could/should be a top 8 dynasty WR as soon as next season. Cross your fingers that he's available at 1.04 or 1.05.

 

1.05: Jahmyr Gibbs, RB2, Alabama

Jahmyr Gibbs is a weapon, and should be a top 5 rookie pick. He is a big play threat that has been often compared to Alvin Kamara. That comparison may be a little aggressive. With exception to Christian McCaffrey, Alvin Kamara is the best pass catching running back in the NFL. We can't put Gibbs there just yet, however he is going to be an asset in PPR leagues. I see a lot of Austin Ekeler with him. Draft him with confidence, as he has the potential of being a Top 10 dynasty RB for years to come.

 

1.06: Jordan Addison, WR2, USC

At 6’0” and 170 lbs, Jordan Addison is being compared quite often to Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith. This is a very good comparison. Addison is not quite as polished as Smith, however he is an incredible route runner with good speed. This former Biletnikoff Award winner is my WR2 in rookie drafts. He's an absolute playmaker.

 

1.07: Anthony Richardson, QB3, Florida

Wherever Richardson ends up, he should be a high end pick in superflex rookie drafts. He has the potential to be the next Jalen Hurts, or some would say the next Malik Willis. With his experience playing in the SEC, I see Richardson being NFL ready. A lot of analysts have Will Levis ranked ahead of Richardson here. Not me.. Richardson's rushing ability is what separates him from Will Levis for me in fantasy.

 

1.08: Zay Flowers, WR3, Boston College

At 5’10” and 173 lbs, there are several who doubt Zay Flowers NFL potential. I’m not one of those doubters. This speedster posted 1,077 yds and 12 TDs this past season for Boston College. His fantastic body control helped him catch 50% of his contested catch targets as well. If he lands with a good coordinator that moves him around, he could be a stud in PPR leagues.

 

1.09: Will Levis, QB4, Kentucky

Levis is a 6’3” 230 lb quarterback with a rocket for an arm. He is a great athlete who runs well to pick up those extra yards. Please forgive me for saying this, but he looks a lot like Josh Allen coming out of college. I’m not saying he is the next Josh Allen, but potential is certainly there. If he ends up with a good offensive coordinator, the sky is certainly the limit for this rookie quarterback.

 

1.10: Quentin Johnston, WR4, TCU

At 6’4” 215 lbs, Johnston has the looks of the next Superstar wide receiver, however I'm not sold on him. He has good burst and acceleration for his size, however his route running is lackluster at best. I'm not sure how he is going to match up against NFL caliber cornerbacks. They could eat him alive. A lot of rankings have Johnston listed as their WR1 or WR2.. not me. Even though I'm not the biggest fan, it's crazy to let him slip out of the first round of a rookie draft, so I'll take him here with the 10th pick.

 

1.11: Jalin Hyatt, WR5, Tennessee

This year’s Biletnikoff Award winner is flying up the draft boards, both in fantasy drafts and the actual NFL draft. Hyatt has phenomenal speed and acceleration, and is a big play ready to happen at any time. Posting 1,257 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns in the SEC cannot go ignored. Hyatt could potentially end up in my Top 3 rookie wide receivers before the NFL Draft in April. He is a big-time talent.

 

1.12: Zach Charbonnet, RB3, UCLA

The more I see of Zach Charbonnet, the more I like. He’s not going to blow you away with any numbers at the Rookie Combine, he’s just a damn good running back. At 6’1” and 220 lbs he has the build to be a three-down back in the NFL. He’s a north/south runner with great vision and good burst. He’s also shown that he has good hands as he caught 37 passes last year at UCLA. He’s projected as a 2nd round pick in the NFL, so he should be a starting RB sooner than later.

 

2.01: Hendon Hooker, QB5, Tennessee

If Hendon Hooker doesn’t suffer a season-ending injury, he would have won the Heisman Trophy. If that were to have happened, he quite possibly would have been the top quarterback in this year's draft. At 6’4” and 210 lbs Hooker has the size that you’re looking for. He is extremely intelligent, and does not turn the ball over. There's no denying his athleticism as Hooker was fantastic rushing the ball as well. He has all the tools to become the next star quarterback in the NFL. Get as much of his stock as you can.

 

2.02: Zach Evans, RB4, Ole Miss

Zach Evans could be a steal here in the 2nd round. He is a high upside running back with incredible elusiveness. He’s not much of a pass catcher, which will limit his production in PPR leagues. Regardless, he has all the tools to be great. He could be this year’s Kenneth Walker.

 

2.03: Tank Bigsby, RB5, Auburn

 (AP Photo/Butch Dill)

Tank Bigsby has been an incredible talent dating back to high school, when he was one of the top recruits in the nation. At 6’0” 215 lbs, he possesses all the tools you’re looking for in a running back. He’s a one-cut runner with explosiveness and posted an impressive 4.16 yards after contact last year for the Auburn Tigers. I’d be very happy to get him here at the 2.02. It won’t take long for him to take over an NFL backfield. Tank Bigsby is this year’s Dameon Pierce.

 

2.04: Michael Mayer, TE1, Notre Dame

With Tight End being so thin in fantasy football, Michael Mayer has been rising up my board. There's only a rare few tight ends who have surpassed 2,000 receiving yards during their collegiate career, and Mayer happens to be one of those players. He is NFL ready as a pass catcher and a blocker. He's not as athletic as Kyle Pitts, but I see more of a Dallas Goedert/Zach Ertz type of player here. The desperation for a productive Tight End in fantasy football pushes Michael Mayer’s value up the board.

 

2.05: Kayshon Boutte, WR6, LSU

Boutte possesses all the tools to be a top-tier wide receiver, however he was wildly inconsistent following his freshman year at LSU. A lot of folks out there see that LSU jersey and immediately want to refer to Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase. Let's get one thing straight, Kayshon Boutte is not in the same class as either of those two wide receivers. I see him being more of a complimentary WR2 in an NFL offense.

 

2.06: Josh Downs, WR7, North Carolina

Josh Downs has limited upside in the NFL due to his size, however I could see him being a very good slot receiver moving forward. Similar to Zay flowers, Downs needs to land in the right system to be a productive fantasy wide receiver. The New England Patriots will most likely be losing Jakobi Myers to free agency, so this would be an ideal landing spot for Downs.

 

2.07: Kendre Miller, RB6, TCU

Thing best that happened to Kendra Miller was Zach Evans transferring to Ole miss. With Evans out of the picture, Miller excelled as a rusher. In fact, this past season he rushed for an impressive 1,399 yards and 17 touchdowns. That production can't be ignored by NFL Scouts. Miller has the potential to be a lead back in the NFL, and for that reason I have no problem selecting him in the middle of the second round.

 

2.08: Sean Tucker, RB7, Syracuse

Similar to tank Bigsby, Sean Tucker possesses the tools you're looking for in an NFL Running back. He has solid size and power, but his speed and quickness is what makes him the most attractive. He needs a lot of work with his pass catching and pass blocking. If he can improve in those two areas, he could be a steal here in the middle of the second round.

 

2.09: Devon Achane, RB8, Texas A&M

(Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images)

Devon Achane has world-class speed. Aside from being a running back, Achane also ran as a sprinter for the Texas A&M track team and has a verified 10.14 second time in the 100-meter dash. He has consistently broken the 4.3-second mark in the 40-yard dash in training for the scouting combine. He ran for over 1,100 yards and caught 36 passes in his one season as the lead RB for Texas A&M. Achane also has two kick return TDs in his three-year collegiate career. I think he could be the next “Isiah Pacheco” type of player, however I could also see him ending up as nothing more than a kick returner.

 

2.10: Kenny McIntosh, RB9, Georgia

Okay, I am higher on Kenny McIntosh than most fantasy analysts out there. Reports out of the Senior Bowl is that McIntosh stood out more than any other running back. He's a fantastic pass catcher, and for that reason he will have value in PPR leagues. If he ends up in a system that gives him touches as a runner, he will be an absolute steal here at pick 2.10.

 

2.11: Rashee Rice, WR8, SMU

I'm going to be honest, Rashee Rice may not make it to pick 2.11 in my mock draft 2.0. The more I see of him, the more that I like. At 6’2” and 205 lbs he has the size and speed to excel in the NFL. He had an impressive 2022 finishing with 96 receptions with 1,355 yards and 10 touchdowns. He's a well-rounded receiver that could end up being an NFL team's WR2 for years to come.

 

2.12: Israel Abanikanda, RB10, Pitt

“Izzy” Abanikanda may not be the most talented RB in the class, however he is a smart, patient runner who always picks up positive yards. This past season he had an impressive 1,431 rushing yards and 20 touchdowns. He’s a north/south grinder that could really help a team like the LA Chargers or Arizona Cardinals. I’m grabbing RBs at this point with the hopes of hitting on one.

 

3.01: Cedric Tillman, WR9, Tennessee

Tillman has great 50/50 ball skills and is a very physical WR. He is a very good blocker in the running game and in the screen game as well. His ability to track the deep ball is borderline elite, but his lack of gamebreaking speed will cause issues in separation. He sustained a serious ankle injury this past season at Tennessee and underwent surgery. He has incredible talent, but he will have to prove his durability at the next level.

 

3.02: Stetson Bennett, QB6, Georgia

This 25 year old QB is big game tested, and he has the arm strength to make most NFL throws. He’s a confident player that sees the field very well. He especially stands out if a play breaks down with his high football IQ and quick-thinking. With as many injuries at the quarterback position as we’ve seen in the NFL, Bennett could very well be a starting QB by mid-season. To grab him in the 3rd round of a Superflex draft could be highway robbery.

 

3.03: Marvin Mims, WR10, Oklahoma

Marvin Mims is one of those receivers who had success straight out of the gate in college. A blemish on his chances in the draft is his smaller stature, but he plays bigger than his frame suggests. He will not blow defenders away off the block, but he is fantastic at gaining momentum as he runs. I do worry that teams will want to utilize his ability as a returner and ignore him as a receiver on normal downs, but if they don’t make that mistake he’s sure to be an incredible value in the draft. We’re banking on the right situation uncorking his full abilities.

 

3.04: Dalton Kincaid, TE2, Utah

Kincaid is a former basketball player who plays tight end. A bit of a raw prospect but has excellent ball skills and some scary upside. Dalton Kincaid would be best suited to a team where he does not have to block a ton and can be used in a “big-slot” role in the early stages of his career. He will obviously have plenty of usage in the red zone with his skill set. He still has a long way to go as a blocker and might be a little smaller than we like at tight end but to get this upside in the third round has me thrilled.

 

3.05: Darnell Washington, TE3, Georgia

At 6’7” and 280 lbs Darnell Washington is an absolute specimen.There's no denying that. With all that size, Darnell can also run. His 4.63 40-yard dash puts him better than average for any tight end prospect; let alone one as big and as strong as him. Washington is still a bit raw, but with his blocking ability, and short to intermediate pass catching ability, he will be a useful tool in fantasy football; especially at a position that lacks options. He is worthy of being picked here in the 3rd round.

 

3.06: Roschon Johnson, RB11, Texas

If not for fellow Longhorn Bijan Robinson, Johnson would have been a very productive starter at Texas.. or anywhere else in the country for that matter. Our head Devy writer Tommy Harvey loves Johnson. In his opinion, Johnson is the most underrated RB in this draft class and could be an absolute steal in the 3rd round.

 

3.07: Tyjae Spears, RB12, Tulane

With running back being deep in this year's class, it’s unfortunate that Tyjae Spears doesn't stand out. Due to his size of 5’10” and 195 lbs he lacks the bulk to be a 15 touch guy. However, I can see him being a third down/complimentary type of back because of his skills in open space. If he lands on a good offense, he should be useful in PPR leagues.

 

3.08: Eric Gray, RB13, Oklahoma

This is the point in the draft where I start grabbing RBs with the hopes of getting this year’s Dameon Pierce/Isiah Pecheco. I grabbed Gray here due to his potential. He is a violent runner with a rare blend of balance, agility, and instinct. He may be drafted as depth to start, but he could take over a backfield sooner than later. Dallas or Carolina would be a great spot for him to land.

 

3.09: Parker Washington, WR11, Penn State

Washington has a way of getting open as he showed last season at Penn State. He’s an absolute catch-and-run threat, as he is dangerous in the open field. He has strong hands and isn’t afraid to work the middle of the field. At 5’10” and 215 lbs he is projected to be a slot receiver in the NFL. His pro comp to me is Randall Cobb. If your fantasy league gives you points for return yards, Washington may help you there too.

 

3.10: Xavier Hutchison, WR12, Iowa State

Hutchison isn’t the best athlete, but he’s a very good football player. At 6’3” 210 lbs he has the frame to be a solid outside wide receiver in the NFL. The 2022 first team all-american Has the size, length, and strength to defeat press coverage. He’s a great 50/50 ball guy as well, as he made multiple spectacular catches over his career at Iowa State. Don't blow you away with his speed, however he's a good open-field runner with enough agility to break tackles in the NFL. He’s absolutely worth a grab here in the 3rd round.

 

3.11: DeWayne McBride, RB14, UAB

Super productive as a runner at UAB, McBride was not utilized in the passing game very often. That is my main question with him. He has good size and is very violent at the point of contact. He also has decent, but not great speed. I think the 3rd/4th round turn is a solid spot to draft him.

 

3.12: Rakim Jarrett, WR13, Maryland

Rakim Jarrett has one of the traits that can make it easier for him to get on the field sooner, and that is the ability to run after the catch. NFL offenses love simple plays to get the ball in space in the hands of guys who know how to move with it. He is a bit undersized and I am not sure about him making contested catches or being a threat downfield. If he can find the right spot, he can produce.

IDP Scoring: The Way It Should Be

January 25, 2023 by Bob Miller

IDP Scoring: The Way It Should Be.

by Bob Miller

 

IDP (Individual Defensive Player) leagues are growing more and more in popularity, and now is the time to get familiar with:

1. How to play

2. How to prepare

3. Who to target

4. When to target certain players

If you have never played in an IDP league, they can be confusing if you just jump into one without knowing what you are getting yourself into. Here at Dynasty Pros Football, we have devised a scoring system that is currently used by thousands of IDP Leagues today. So, if you are starting a new league from scratch or are having trouble with calibrating your scoring system, feel free to use ours.

Dynasty Pros IDP (Individual Defensive Player) Scoring Table:

How to Play

The best place to start is knowing how your league scores IDPs and what positions are designated for each player. That then allows you to understand what players are best fits for your team. For example: Joey Bosa may be designated a LB in real life, but your fantasy league may designate him as a DE. That designation can drastically change how he is valued.

 

How to Prepare

The next step is to create a ranking system that is unique for you. One website may tell you one thing and another website may tell you another, so do your research and use what is best for you. We offer a well thought out ranking system, so take a look and see if it helps you.

https://dynastyprosfootball.com/defensive-lineman-rankings/

 

Who to Target and When to Target Them

This can be tricky, that is why it is important to do your research and understand your league’s player designation and scoring system.

 

 

Defensive Lineman

Elite defensive ends are where we would recommend you start, since there are very few of them. Our recommended scoring system rewards 4 points for a sack and 3 points for a tackle for loss. This makes players like Myles Garrett, Nick Bosa, and Aaron Donald (likely listed as a defensive tackle) extremely valuable and possible league winners, so target them before you target guys at other defensive positions. One of the main focuses of an NFL Defense is pass rushing and sacks, as it should be in IDP play as well.

 

Linebackers

Linebackers are next. Make sure to rank your Linebackers in a tier ranking. This allows you to properly value them and know who you should target first. Tackles reward 1 point each and assisted tackles earn you .5 points. LBs TJ Watt and Micah Parsons are in tier one (possibly the only LBs in tier one) and is considerably more valuable than Linebackers in tier two. Obviously you'll want to target Linebackers who accumulate a lot of tackles as well. Those are mostly your inside linebackers.

 

Edge Rushers listed as Linebackers

What's one of the most exciting plays on defense? Sacks, of course. So, if you are playing IDPs, then sacks need to be rewarded. Players like TJ Watt and Matthew Judon are far more valuable in the Dynasty Pros Scoring System. Some websites that rank IDPs may not even have them in their top 20-30 overall. That's crazy. How can a player like TJ Watt, the 2021 league leader in sacks (22.5), not be ranked as an elite IDP on other websites? Why even play with IDPs if you don't reward big plays such as sacks?

So keep an eye on those Edge Rushers that are listed as Linebackers. Since sacks are, and should be rewarded, these linebackers are very valuable.

 

Defensive Backs

Defensive backs should be down on your list, unless someone like Derwin James, Jamal Adams, or Budda Baker is the best defensive players on the board. Safeties tend to be more rosterable over Cornerbacks in IDP leagues because of tackle opportunities.

Cornerbacks also have value in our scoring system as well with interceptions being 5 points and passes defended are 1 point each. Cornerbacks tend to be more "Hit or Miss" since they get less opportunities to make plays. No worries, corners still provide some value, especially when your safeties have bye weeks.

 

Be sure to keep up with defensive players in an IDP league as much as you would offensive players. There could be some studs left on the waiver wire if people aren't paying close enough attention. You could be a big time winner if you are keeping tabs.

Waiver Wire Rankings: Week 15

Waiver Wire Rankings: Week 15

By Bob Miller (@DynastBobFF)

 

Week 14 was tough. Kyler tears his ACL, Baltimore is down to their 3rd quarterback, Pickett gets hurt, etc. Ugh.. let's move on. By the looks at what's on the Waiver Wire, there may not be very much that can help you in your fantasy playoffs. Maybe a handful of guys if available. First, let's take a look at some notable injuries to keep an eye on:

 

BAL: Lamar Jackson (knee)
HOU: Dameon Pierce (ankle)
BAL: Tyler Huntley (concussion)
DEN: Courtland Sutton (hamstring)
SEA: Kenneth Walker (ankle)
CIN: Hayden Hurst (calf)
CIN: Joe Mixon (concussion)

 

Now let's check my Week 15 Waiver Wire Rankings:

28Mike WhiteNYJQB3
29Ryan TannehillTENQB4
30Odell Beckham Jr.FAWR14

Quarterback: Well.. Brock Purdy came out of nowhere. He had an impressive game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Don'e be scared to roll him out there if you're in a pinch. He's an ideal pick-up for the Lamar Jackson/Kyler Murray owner. Jared Goff had him a game as well against Minnesota. Those are your top two QB pick-ups this week. Goff's matchup is a more difficult against the Jets, however I expect Amon-Ra St. Brown to be peppered with targets in that contest. On the other side of the field Mike White should have a good game against Detroit's secondary. He can be trusted as well.

 

Running Back: I really like what I'm seeing from Jerick McKinnon. He just keeps getting it done when it comes to fantasy. Kansas City is getting the ball to him in different ways. After putting up 32.40 fantasy points in Week 14, he needs be owned in all formats. Zonovan "Bam" Knight shouldn't be available. So if he is, grab him immediately. Same goes for Cam Akers and James Cook. All other RBs are dart throws.

 

Wide Receiver: I have said for weeks and weeks to pick up Donovan Peoples-Jones. He looks like the #1 in Cleveland. If he is available, he should be the #1 priority and plugged into your starting lineups. Chris Moore is a player worth grabbing as well. He could be the WR1 in Houston moving forward. DeMarcus Robinson is a safe get as well. I like his floor for the rest of this season.

 

Tight End: Evan Engram was an absolute stud on Sunday putting up a ridiculous 39.20 fantasy points. He is a must-have if available. Chigoziem Okonkwo is becoming a go-to guy in Tennessee and should be universally owned as well. Any other waiver wire TE is just a crap shoot.

IDP Waiver Wire: Week 15

IDP Waiver Wire: Week 15

By Bob Miller (@DynastyBobFF)

 

Wow.. Week 14 is now in the past. How time flies. The fantasy playoffs are starting for some, and others are building for the future. I’m here to tell you which IDP players I'd target for Week 15 moving forward. The players listed below are shown as “available” in at least 50% of IDP leagues.

 

These players fantasy points are according to the Dynasty Pros IDP scoring system below:

 

 

Notable IDP injuries to monitor:

JAC: Travon Walker (ankle)

CIN: Trey Hendrickson (wrist)

NYJ: Quinnen Williams (calf)

TB: Joe Tryon-Shoyinka (hip)

PIT: Chris Wormley (knee)

TB: Vita Vea (calf)

 

 

 

Josh Uche: DE/LB, New England Patriots

My “cover boy” from last week’s IDP article has been on fire! After posting 16.50 fantasy points in week 13 against the Buffalo Bills, Uche followed it up on Monday Night Football by racking up 25.50 fantasy points against the Arizona Cardinals. Uche had five total tackles including four solo, and three tackles for loss that resulted in three sacks. What a game for the young defensive lineman. If you didn't take my advice last week by scooping him up, please listen to me now. If for some reason he's available on your waiver wire, he should be the #1 IDP pick-up this week.

 

Azeez Ojulari: DE/LB, New York Giants

Azeez Ojulari recorded four tackles, including three solo, and two sacks in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Those numbers were good for 17.50 fantasy points. Kayvon Thibodeaux is the rookie that has received the most hype in New York, but Ojulari looks like he could be equally as productive. In just four games this season, he has racked up four sacks, including 3 in his last two games. He’s a player you should certainly be keeping an eye on. In fact, if you are out of the playoff hunt in your Dynasty League, consider picking him up now for next year.

 

AJ Epenesa: DE, Buffalo Bills

Since losing Von Miller to a knee injury, AJ Epenesa has really stepped up for the Buffalo Bills. Averaging over 10.00 fantasy points over the last four weeks, He could prove to be useful moving forward if you need help on your defensive line. I'm not sure what the future holds for him next year when Von Miller returns, so picking him up for next season may not pay off like one would hope. He is more of a win-now type of player.

 

 

 

Deion Jones: LB, Cleveland Browns

Deion Jones took over as the team's starting middle linebacker after Sione Takitaki suffered a season-ending ACL injury. In his first game starting, he certainly produced. Against the Cincinnati Bengals, Jones had 7 total tackles, including four solo, two passes defended, and an interception. That was good for 12.50 fantasy points. Deion Jones is a fantastic pick-up for this week, as he faces the run-heavy Baltimore Ravens this Saturday. Middle Linebackers always put up strong fantasy numbers when facing the Ravens. With Baltimore missing Lamar Jackson again this weekend, they will once again be more run-heavy. That's great news if you have Deion Jones in your lineup. Start him with confidence. 

 

Willie Gay: LB, Kansas City Chiefs

Credit: Mark Konezny-USA TODAY Sports

Willie Gay is slowly turning into an elite IDP player. In his Week 14 matchup against the Denver Broncos, he had 20.00 fantasy points by putting up 5 tackles, one tackle-for-loss, a pass defended, and an interception returned for a touchdown. Each week Willie Gay seems to find a way to put up solid fantasy numbers. It either comes from rushing the passer or in coverage. One thing's for sure, Willie Gay is a playmaker. Pick him up if you have the opportunity.

 

James Houston: LB, Detroit Lions

I'll start off by saying this, James Houston is not a must-add right now. He's another player that I'm keeping an eye on for the future. Since being signed from the practice squad in Week 12, he has had a sack in three straight games. In fact, over this three-game stretch, he has 32 fantasy points with a total of 4 sacks. I'm not looking to add him if I'm in the fantasy playoffs, however if I'm out of the fantasy playoffs, he's a nice player to pick up now and stash for next year.

 

 

Marcus Jones: CB, New England Patriots

I want to tell you a secret. New England Patriots cornerback Marcus Jones is a cheat code. He is productive in all three phases of the game. Not only is he the team's primary punt and kick returner, he is also accumulating tackles on defense and the kicking game as well. Not only that, but now he is getting touches on the offensive side of the football, making him extremely productive in fantasy. In Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills, Jones had 14.10 fantasy points by posting 2 catches for 51 yards and a touchdown while also picking up one tackle and a pass defended. This past week against the Arizona Cardinals, Jones did it all. He had two kick returns for 47 yards, a punt return for 7 yards, one catch for 12 yards, 8 total tackles, including seven solo, two passes defended, and an interception. That was good for 17.70 fantasy points. He is doing all this while eligible at CB. Marcus Jones needs to be added in all IDP formats immediately.

 

Marcus Williams: S, Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore Ravens safety Marcus Williams hasn't played since week 5 due to a wrist injury. Prior to his injury he had 33 tackles, five passes defended, and three interceptions, making him an elite IDP weekly starter. Returning this past week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Williams picked up right where he left off, Finishing the day with three tackles, including two solo, one pass defended, and another interception. There's a strong chance that he's not available in your IDP League, however I have seen him dropped due to that week 5 injury. If this is the case in your league, he should be a top priority pick-up.

 

Marlon Humphrey: CB, Baltimore Ravens

Marlon Humphrey recorded six tackles (5 solo) in Sunday's win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Not the most productive game, but no worries. Humphrey has been beaten in coverage some this season, meaning opposing teams have no problem throwing in his direction. That's been good for his IDP production. Averaging 10.80 fantasy points over his past five contests, it would be wise to pick up the playmaking cornerback.

Quarterback: Jared Goff is a good start/stream for this week. He has a good matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. All Lamar Jackson owners should be spending that FAAB on Tyler Huntley this week as well. Hopefully your playoffs don't start until next week. Ryan Tannehill and Mac Jones are decent streaming options this week as well.

 

Running Back: It only took 13 weeks, but Los Angeles finally turned Cam Akers loose. He had 60 yds and 2 touchdowns this past week. That was good for 19.00 fantasy points. He is the #1 pickup for the week. Zonovan Knight and James Cook need to be added as well. They will be nice options moving forward. I'm not sure what to make of the Seattle backfield. It's a crapshoot right now.

 

Wide Receiver: There are several options here, but only a few that produce consistantly. Those players are Donovan Peoples-Jones, Parris Campbell, and DeMarcus Robinson. With your playoffs on the line, it's risky to start any other wide receivers on the above list.

 

Tight End: If Greg Dulcich is available by some chance, you should scoop him up immediately. He has become the top target in Denver and is a weekly TE1. Evan Engram showed back up in Week 13 by putting up 14.00 fantasy points. He is still a risky start. Taysom Hill is touchdown-or-bust, so be careful to not chase the points. Chigoziem Okonkwo is becoming a factor in Tennessee, and should be monitored.
