Another Westbrook Question

[macdona1]

In a PPR league, after LT/Steven Jackson are off the board would you take Westbrook? I was just wondering how much value he gains in a PPR league. Same for Reggie Bush.

This isnt a specific Draft question, I was just wondering how much value these backs gain in a PPR.

simple solution. project the stats and each and determine how many fantasy points you think he'll get.

for example

westbrook 1000 yds 8 td 70 catches 600 yds 5 tds compared to
alexander 1400 yds 12 tds 25 catches 200 yds 1 td

1600 vs 1600 13 td vs 13 td....then the difference in catches obviously leans you toward westbrook. this was just an example...project your own numbers an d make your own conclusions.

In a PPR I'd say LT, Sjax, Gore, LJ and probably Addai are all better than Westy. That being said, I'd gladly swipe him up at the 6-7 slots. As for Bush, I'd say realistically he will get around 70-75 catches. That still puts him in the top 10 in my books. I'd be willing to take him as early as 7th (assuming Westy was gone) because of his incredible potential.

westbrook or b-west please. god i hate westy!

WESTY is a ppr beast. I'd rank them in ppr:
LT
Sjax
Gore
WESTY
Addai
Bush

I'd say WESTY is falling into the 6-7 slots tho, which anyone should be glad to swoop him up there. I think with DMac coming back and hopefully wanting to "prove" he can stay healthy, WESTY should have a great year IMHO.
Good Luck!
