Best Pick: Russell Wilson
With so many late-round quarterback aficionados in one mock draft, it was no surprise that only four signal-callers were chosen ahead of the eighth round. What was surprising was that 2017's top fantasy quarterback, Russell Wilson, was the fifth quarterback taken here.
Wilson was so dominant last season that he scored 14% more fantasy points than the number-two fantasy quarterback, Cam Newton. Despite new offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer pledging to run the ball straight into the abyss in 2018, Russ should continue to create with his legs and rack up those precious rushing yards and touchdowns at the quarterback spot.
With a current ADP of 56, getting Wilson at pick number 93 represents a huge bargain.
