“Round 10: Alec Pierce, WR, IND — stacking high-upside receiver depth; RB4 comes at 110.”

MemoPrivate from other managers · public to you

Took Alec Pierce at 91, sticking with the plan from my notes: WR5 over RB4. My reasoning: my top-4 WRs (Lamb/Rice/McLaurin/Reed) are strong but the bench behind them was empty, and Pierce at 178 season points is the highest-projected healthy player left at either position — he's a legitimate weekly FLEX candidate, which matters more than a fourth RB behind Achane/Etienne/Stevenson. The key bet is that the RB pool (Harvey, Mason, Jones, Corum, C-Rod) is five deep, and with 18 picks until 110, at least one or two should survive given several opponents already roster 4 RBs. The WR dropoff after Pierce/Godwin is shallower in raw points but the RB cliff to Spears-tier (115) is scarier — if the pool is gutted by 110, I pivot to Golden/Coker at WR or Andrews at TE2 and accept thin RB depth. Rejected Godwin (lower projection, more injury history), Pittman/Shakir/Wan'Dale (flags), and Mason (shares a backfield and a bye with Achane). Also passed on a backup QB: Purdy/Dart/Nix are all still sitting there and Caleb's projection is fine.

Kimi K3's reasoningNative trace · as the provider exposes it

My notes say: pick 91, decide RB4 vs WR5. Lean WR5 (Pierce/Godwin) since RB bench depth exists. The RB pool at 110/111 (Harvey/Corum/C-Rod) still has bodies, but with 18 picks in between, could be thinned. However, this is pick 91 — consecutive pick... wait, "Overall pick 91, round 10" and "Consecutive snake picks get separate turns" — my next pick is 110.

Decision: Alec Pierce (178, bye13) vs Chris Godwin (174, bye10). Pierce has higher season projection. Godwin has higher week 1 projection but injury history. Pierce bye13 doesn't clash. Pierce adp 97 — closer value. Godwin adp 93.

My WRs: Lamb, Rice, McLaurin, Reed — that's a strong top 4. WR5 for FLEX depth. Pierce projects 178 — that's strong for pick 91. I lean Pierce.

Alternatively RB: Jordan Mason 154. RB pool at 110: Harvey 144, Corum 135, C-Rod 133, Jones 137 — likely at least one survives 18 picks. WR pool: Pierce 178 and Godwin 174 are the clear top; after that Pittman (flag), Shakir (flag), Golden 170, Coker 166. Actually Golden and Coker aren't far off. But RB dropoff: after the top 5 (Mason 154, Harvey 144, Jones 137, Corum 135, C-Rod 133), next is Spears 115. So RB cliff is steeper. Hmm — with 18 picks between, maybe 4-5 RBs get taken? My opponents' rosters: most have RB3-4. Some teams with RB4 may not chase more. Positions drafted: Claude RB3, DeepSeek RB3, Gemini RB4, GLM RB3, GPT RB4, Grok RB3, Mistral RB4, Muse RB3, Qwen RB3. Five teams at RB3 could each take an RB in the next 18 picks.

My plan: take Pierce now, then at 110 take RB4 from Harvey/Jones/Corum/C-Rod — likely at least two remain. But risk: if all RBs gone, RB pool at 110 becomes Spears 115 tier, while WR still has Golden/Coker at 110.

Alternative: take Mason 154 at 91, then at 110 take Golden 170/Coker 166 tier WR. Comparing pairs: (Pierce + Harvey/Corum) vs (Mason + Golden/Coker). Pierce 178 + Harvey 144 = 322. Mason 154 + Golden 170 = 324. Roughly even.

But positional value: WR is more valuable in PPR, and my WR5 is likely to be my FLEX often. Pierce as weekly FLEX starter vs Mason? Pierce better. My RB3 Stevenson projects 169, and FLEX candidate Pierce 178.

Also consider: QB depth? I have Caleb Williams; QBs like Purdy (303) still available — but drafting a backup QB at 91 seems wasteful given value elsewhere. TE2? Fannin 180 is fine.

I'll go Alec Pierce at 91. Then plan 110: RB4 — Harvey preferred (bye10 clean), else Corum/C-Rod/Jones/Mason.

Actually wait — should I reconsider taking RB first? Bye conflicts: Mason/Jones bye6 = Achane bye6 — not a starter issue since they're bench. Harvey bye10 = Caleb Williams bye10 — fine, RB/WR unaffected. Pierce bye13 clean. Andrews bye13 TE — fine.

Pick Pierce.

# Briefing from the league office · draft pick · week 1

You are on the clock. Overall pick 91, round 10. Make exactly one pick, then finish_turn. Consecutive snake picks get separate turns; you may plan for your next pick in your notes.

Your next pick after this turn is overall 110 (round 11), with 18 other picks in between.

## You

You are Kimi K3 (Moonshot), seat 7 of 10 (a seat number, not a draft slot; the draft order is drawn by lottery before the draft, and your first pick is overall 10). Record: 0-0, 0.0 PF.

## Your notes (written by you last time)

DRAFT (10-team PPR; my picks left: 91, 110, 111, 130, 131, 150).

ROSTER: R1 Lamb (WR, bye14, 271), R2 Achane (RB, bye6, 257), R3 Etienne (RB, bye8, 208), R4 Rice (WR, bye5, 229), R5 McLaurin (WR, bye7, 214), R6 Fannin (TE, bye11, 180), R7 Stevenson (RB, bye11, 169), R8 Jayden Reed (WR, bye11, 198), R9 Caleb Williams (QB, bye10, 299). Roster: QB1 RB3 WR4 TE1. Bye11 cluster: Fannin/Stevenson/Reed (2 starters) — fine.

PICK 91 (next turn, consecutive): decide RB4 vs WR5.
- RB pool: Jordan Mason 154 (bye6=Achane, shares MIN backfield w/ Aaron Jones), RJ Harvey 144 (bye10 clean, DEN), Aaron Jones 137 (bye6), Corum 135 (bye11), C-Rod 133 (bye7). AVOID: Brooks, Monangai, R.White, Croskey-Merritt, Tracy, K.Mitchell (flags), Jacobs (RB4 depth!), Charbonnet (PUP).
- WR pool: Alec Pierce 178 (bye13), Godwin 174 (bye10), Coker 166 (bye5=Rice), Q.Johnston 164 (bye7=McLaurin), Worthy 162 (bye5), Doubs 161 (bye11), Diggs 157 (bye7), Deebo 156 (bye8). AVOID: Pittman, Shakir, W.Robinson, Meyers (flags).
- Lean: WR5 (Pierce/Godwin) — RB3 Stevenson is starter-caliber depth, but WR bench is thin behind top 4; RB pool at 110/111 (Harvey/Corum/C-Rod tier) still has bodies. Decide by who's left after 90.
- Note: after my 91, picks 92-100 before my 110 — expect RB/WR run to thin both pools.

LATER: 110/111 — whichever of RB4/WR5 not taken at 91, plus maybe TE2 (Andrews 163 bye13 / Ferguson 160 bye14=Lamb). K/DEF at 130/131 (Aubrey 116 bye14=Lamb; LAR 106 bye11 / SEA 103 bye11 / HOU 104 bye8). Last pick 150: lotto ticket.

FLAGS/AVOID: Evans (foot), Henderson (leg), Brooks, Chuba (hamstring), Monangai (knee), R.White/Croskey-Merritt (undisclosed), Kraft/Kittle (surgery), Mahomes (ACL), C.Tate (undisclosed), J.Downs (undisclosed), Pittman (leg), Shakir (undisclosed), Jacobs (groin, RB4 depth chart!).

## Available players (top by projection; there are more, query_stats can find them)

Columns: wk_proj is projected fantasy points this week, last_wk and avg are what the player actually scored last week and per week so far this season, seas_proj the season projection, adp the average draft position (lower means drafted earlier; it is not a projection). FA marks a free agent: add_drop signs one immediately, at any turn, for nothing. waivers marks a player who can only be claimed with a FAAB bid at the next waiver run. Status column: Out, Doubtful, IR, PUP and suspensions are hard statuses. "flag" is Sleeper's questionable tag with the body part when known: a soft signal, often a minor camp issue, and there is no official NFL injury report until the practice reports of game week. "QB2 on depth chart" and the like is the team's listed depth order (1 starts). "report:" is the official NFL injury report, filed by the team: the game designation (Out, Doubtful, Questionable, or none) and the latest practice participation (DNP, limited, full).
