On the clock, who should I take? WHIR

Postby FantasySportsMaven » Thu Feb 19, 2009 9:34 am

I am on the clock to pick in a New 12 Team Dynastly League. Scoring standard plus PPR=1.
We start QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR, FL(QB/RB/WR/TE), TE, K, DST
We have the option to start 2 QBs each week if we want.

After this pick, my next pick will be after 4 more players are selected, so I have the next pick and the 6th pick out of the remaining players.

So far here is my roster:
QB: Schaub, Warner, Garrard
RB: Gore, MJD, De Williams
WR: White, DeSean Jackson

Here are the best available players:
RB: Ward, E. Graham, L. Washington, F. Jackson, R. Torain, S. Morris, L. Maroney, Faulk, R. Williams, Rhodes, Charles, Choice
WR: Mark Clayton, Matt Jones, M. Jenkins, J. Gage, Camarillo, L Coles
TE: Olsen, Shiancoe, Scheffler, Fasano, H. Miller, Z. Miller, D. Keller, V. Davis

Based on 2008 stats, the top scoring starters still available are in order:
Eagles, Titans, Orton, Flacco, Delhomme, Bucs, Giants, L. Coles, Ward, Faulk, Jets, Dolphins, Vikings, Muhammad, Rhodes, T. Edwards, L. Washington

Who should I pick now?
Who should I try and target with the 6th pick from now too?

Being that it's a dynasty I like Choice with one of these two picks, he's going to be really good even if you have to wait a few years for him(ie Michael Turner)...You need some WR depth but I don't really see any solid options from who you posted there but I would definately look for some young WR's with upside once you get a few more rounds in(Avery, Morgan, Austin, Rice, just to throw out a few).


I'd also keep your eye on Olsen, I really love his upside in dynasties and Scheffler will probably come off the board before him.

Thanks LS2.

Avery and Morgan are already gone.
Choice is tempting, but he is probably gonna end up 3rd string behind Barber and Felix and kinda fell off a bit in the last game against Philly when everything was on the line?

Maybe, if he is still around, Olsen is a good choice for my pick after this one? According to the 2008 stats, he is the top remaining scoring TE on the board so he might not make it to my next pick after this one?

Thanks for the help!

Yes, those three were my first 3 picks in the draft and that is why I ended up being so thin at WR.

If I take Ward, who should I target for my next pick which happens after 4 more players are chosen? Olsen? Or Torain?

There is a lot of quality left at TE, I would hold off until the following round. I think you have to go WR as you are very thin but the RB's are very tempting. WR's are fairly easy to find during the season. Coles is the best pick of the bunch but it ain't a great pick.

I might consider starting the season weak at WR and look to deal a RB at some point for the Wr upgrade.

Thanks.

Derrick Ward was my gut pick, and so I guess I'll go with him.

I'll repost when my next turn is due.

Thanks again!

Ward would have been my pick also, just wondering why you drafted 3 qb's in the first 8 rounds.

We can start 2 QBs each week if we want.
