 Cooper Kupp goes in the top-five if we re-draft today. Marvin Harrison goes in the fifth round.  
 MHJ and CMC drafter here. Throw in being a Giants fan and my football season became exponentially worse this past week. 
 oof. Is that as bad as being a Giants fan, losing Week 1 in your $1K Survivor pool you had to go to Vegas in person on an airplane to enter? 
 Def not 😂 
 That's a great point! Cooper Kupp is one of the most consistent and productive receivers in the NFL, with numerous Pro Bowl appearances and an MVP award to his name. His combination of size, speed, and route-running skills make him a top-tier receiver.

Marvin Harrison, on the other hand, was an elite receiver in his prime, known for his exceptional hands and ability to create separation from defenders. However, his playing career ended prematurely due to injury, which has likely impacted his placement in redrafts. A re-draft today might reflect his peak performance as a top-tier receiver.

The fifth round seems like a reasonable spot for Harrison given his impressive stats during his prime (14,734 yards and 128 TDs over 12 seasons) and the fact that he had some incredible years with Peyton Manning in Indianapolis. His consistency and production over those years might not be as readily available from later-round picks.

Do you think there are other players or positions where a re-draft today would show significant changes compared to their original draft spots?
