What is up with the espn ranking?
Right now doing mocks it looks like it is just Mike clays rankings. Anyone out there who has drafted already know if it changes in a real league or is it the same as the mocks?

They have Marlon Mack at like 130, which is ridiculous. i get that JT is the new hotness, but as of this moment Mack is still slated to get a good amount of work behind an awesome o-line. That ranking makes no sense at all.

Last year he was a fringe RB2.
This year JT will take half his touches, and remember NH is still taking the passes. There are 3 RBs on that committee. If Mack has a nice week or two to open the season, sell high.
I agree 130 is probably a bit low, but honestly the upside is minimal.

Yeah, but Mack last year had no QB to support him. Also reports from camp are that he's been getting more involved into he passing game. Couple that with the other reports of JT having fumbling issues and mack looks like a great pick up to me.
Rivers should be better then Brissett, Mack should get some passing work, and JT hasn't earned coach trust yet. TY is healthy, Campbell is healthy, and Pittman is a solid hands receiver. With that trio I don't think you can stack the box

If there were changes, they were very minor, like within one or two spots. Gibson was at 120 something, mixon at 14

Its all the RBs in a tier and then all the WRe in the tier making them pretty lopsided. The rankings wouldnt be so bad if it wasnt 15 WR then 10 RB flip flopping

Yes

In my experience with pretty much exclusive ESPN drafts, the actual draft plays out completely different than any of mocks on there. People generally take who they want and it usually leads to some people falling and such.
I know that's probably the same on most draft sites, but I just don't put too much stock into what I see in my mocks.

Honestly I try not to go off of ESPNs alone. I use Fantasy Pros
Personally I make my own rankings to use, but we draft in espn. The rankings on there have a huge influence on how the actually draft will go.
Which gives you a huge advantage to cut through the BS
Yes, but the first 2 rounds are terrible to get through since they have every single rb going.
Sounds like how it should be
Used it to my advantage by drafting Adams mid-2nd
