Welcome to Would You Rather: Dynasty Edition, a series from DLF based on the popular board game. Each week we post a poll on Twitter asking fans who they prefer between a player or a certain pick. The values used here come via the DLF Trade Analyzer. We will cover the results and discuss both sides of the poll in depth. Let’s get right to it!
JK Dobbins versus a 2023 first-round rookie pick
Last week we covered a trade involving Aaron Jones versus the 2022 1.06. We always look at players or picks that carry similar values and let you vote on who you would rather have. This one was not very close, with the 2023 first-round pick winning out by over a two-to-one margin. Here were the results:
Which do you prefer? (Superflex)
Once again voters were in alignment with the values from the trade analyzer. There still has only been one instance where the votes did not agree with the trade analyzer values.

These numbers reflect a superflex league. Dobbins's value goes all the way up to 564.7 in a one-quarterback league, making it a high 2023 first that would be needed to match value.
I expect to start to receive a slew of offers for Dobbins ahead of our draft in June. My team is full of 2019 and 2020 draft picks so I’m entering my championship window. I am holding and winning with Dobbins.
I love the series, and happen to own Dobbins in a number of leagues, so I tried to flip him to the #4-5-6-7 teams, got a no from each one. Not even a single counter
I think Dobbins could be one of the best RB’s in the NFL, but with Gus Edwards, Justice Hill (who is coming back after missing all of last year), and Lamar Jackson, I fear he will not get enough touches on a consistent basis for his full fantasy potential to be revealed. Too many cooks in the kitchen in my opinion, which is why it is hard for me to trust Dobbins on a weekly basis.
I also think that the Ravens lack of a decent passing game will not help matters either. This could be the year NFL Defensive Coordinators catch up with Lamar Jacskson.
Jeff, I gotta believe you are a Dobbins truther because how own lots of stock in him, yes?
