Hey everyone, it’s your boy back at it again with another post. Today, we’re diving deep into my draft strategy, specifically about snagging Nick Chubb. Now, I know some of you might be scratching your heads, thinking I’ve lost it, but hear me out.

So, picture this: it’s draft day, and I’ve got the first overall pick in my non-PPR league. Everyone’s expecting me to go for one of the big-name wide receivers or maybe even a top quarterback. But nope, I’m eyeing Nick Chubb.
Why, you ask? Well, let’s break it down. This guy’s been a beast for the Browns. Four Pro Bowl nods? That’s no joke. He’s the real deal when it comes to running the ball. Sure, he had that nasty knee injury last year, but he’s back and ready to roll.
- First off, I started digging into Chubb’s stats. Even with the injury, the dude’s been putting up numbers. We’re talking about a guy who’s averaged over 1,000 rushing yards per season. That’s consistency right there.
- Then, I looked at the Browns’ offense as a whole. They’ve had their ups and downs, sure, but Chubb’s always been a bright spot. He’s the kind of player who can carry a team on his back.
- Next, I started thinking about the future. Word on the street is that Chubb might be a free agent after this season. Now, that could be a gamble, but I’m willing to bet that he’s gonna ball out to secure that next big contract.
I spent hours watching game footage, analyzing plays, and crunching numbers. I even started comparing Chubb to other top running backs in the league. And you know what? He held his own. In fact, in some areas, he even outperformed them.
Now, I know there are some concerns. He hasn’t exactly been lighting up the stat sheet this season, and that touchdown count is looking a little sparse. But I’m chalking that up to a slow start after coming back from injury. Plus, the Browns’ offense as a whole hasn’t been firing on all cylinders.
I also started considering the “what ifs.” What if Chubb does leave the Browns? What if he ends up on a team that doesn’t utilize him as much? Those are valid concerns, but I’m a firm believer in betting on talent. And Chubb’s got talent in spades.

Making the Pick
After all that research and deliberation, I made my decision. When draft day came around, and I was on the clock, I took a deep breath and made my pick. “With the first overall pick, I’m taking Nick Chubb.” You could hear a pin drop in the room. Everyone was stunned. But I stood by my choice, confident that I had made the right move.
So, there you have it. That’s how I ended up drafting Nick Chubb first overall in my non-PPR league. It might seem crazy to some, but I’m convinced that it was the right move. Only time will tell if I’m right, but I’m feeling pretty good about it. What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments!
