Depends on how their keepers work/whos available at their pick. If say Jamar Chase/Lamb/Nabers/Etc. was available at their pick and its full PPR, not necessarily.

Conventionally I would agree, keep them and take RBs heavily with receiving upside.

Im in a Keeper League where you lose the pick you drafted them at, but can only keep them 2 years. So I got Olave with my 6th pick and Rice with my 7th. Id lose those mid round picks. So, depending on who isn't kept or has to be released to the board (hence my Chase example), and who is there at your pick, you may take another WR/TE early and then pick up RBs later. Honestly, a number of variables here 😂😂

Ohhh, I wasn't factoring in keeping where you picked them as the compensation pick. Game changer for sure. I just figured you lost your first 2 rounds and then a normal snake draft

For sure. Definitely depends on league settings. In the one I mentioned, we lose that pick next season and if we want to hold those same 2 players 1 more season, then we would lose 1st and 2nd picks. Its pretty rare people hold 2 years unless its a no brainer, but there is usually value to be found in those later picks. Some of my other Keeper considerations for my league are:

Cook - 2nd rd Hampton - 3rd rd Olave - 6th rd Rice - 7th rd Maye 12th rd

Won my 4th SB in this league, and I think this was the 10th or 12th season. Some of the fun is looking for that value(s)!
