2nd Pick Half-PPR 10-team League
Kamara or CMC for the first round? Should I target a WR or RB at the end of Round 2? Any insight is appreciated.

CMC for sure. I have him a point per game better than Kamara.
At back-end of round 2 you're likely looking at WR Evans, RB Cook and possibly QB Mahomes. Best pick is probably Mahomes, 2nd best Evans, especially since you got an RB with 1st pick.

Drafting Mahomes in the second round in a 10 person league is wrong. I agree with CMC over Kamara though. I'd target the best overall player in the RB/WR segment at the end of the 2nd round and let that decide.

Drafting Mahomes at #19 might seem wrong, but I have run a lot of mock drafts using Value Based Drafting. These mocks show that Mahomes is worth taking as early as the #15 pick. Also, not that ADP is any real guide, his current 10-team ADP is 2.10 (#20).
Mahomes is good at that point of the draft because the drop from him to #2 QB is around 25 to 30 points. He will be taken soon in most drafts. Comparing mocks where I take Mahomes at #19 versus where I take Evans gives me an overall stronger team by almost a point per game.

Would you say Evans over JuJu if they’re both still up late 2nd?

Slight edge to Juju if he's there.

Appreciate the help! I’ll keep those three in mind.

Sounds good.

I’m leaning towards Kamara. Latavius Murray being there may scare some people away, but we still don’t know if he will fit the Saints. Look a AP when he joined them. And I like picking WR end of 2 and beginning of third and waiting for a Chris Carson or David Montgomery as my RB 2. Good Luck!
