Fantasy football mock draft: Puka Nacua, Jeremiyah Love drop due to recent news - ESPN

Editor's note: This draft took place prior to news that Jordyn Tyson could miss two months due to his hamstring injury.

The first full week of NFL preseason action was a little too eventful for fantasy football managers.

Early in the week, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported potential suspensions for many players, including stars Puka Nacua and Josh Jacobs. Then, after flashing the special ability that made Jeremiyah Love the No. 3 pick in the NFL draft, the Arizona Cardinals announced he suffered a high ankle sprain that will keep him out for at least the remainder of the preseason.
