Some players (that seem to be more available) that really stand out to me are Isaiah McKenzie, Jared Goff, George Pickens, Zay Jones, and Josh Reynolds. I'm seeing these guys available in a lot of leagues, so they are targets of mine. Hopefully some of these other players are available to you. Good luck!
