1.4 & 1.8 IDP Dynasty League Rookie Draft

[l337ninja]

This is the 4th year of my dynasty league.

My team took a dump on me last season in the Championship game, so I'm looking to get back into the mix and reclaim my title. I made some trades last season that worked out in my favor (most notably, getting rid of Tim Hightower for a 1st--which ended up being 1.4), but I'm stuck on what to do with these picks. Here's my roster:

QB - Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, Matt Schaub, Matt Leinart, Tyler Thigpen
RB - Steven Jackson, DeAngelo Williams, Reggie Bush, Michael Bush, Pierre Thomas, Willis McGahee, Ray Rice, BenJarvus Green-Ellis
WR - Larry Fitzgerald, Brandon Marshall, Wes Welker, Santonio Holmes, Domenik Hixon, Mark Clayton
TE - Kellen Winslow Jr, Greg Olsen
K - Neil Rackers
DEF - Titans
DL - Tamba Hali, Justin Smith
LB - Patrick Willis, Ray Lewis
DB - Adrian Wilson, Brandon Meriweather, Chris Harris

If the owner who has the 1.1 takes Beanie, then I'm going to trade up to 1.2 and snag Moreno (I've already discussed this scenario with the owner of the 1.2).

The owner of the 1.2 pick wants Crabtree, but doesn't want to take him with either Wells or Moreno on the board.

I know that the owner of the 1.3 pick is going to take the top RB that falls to him.

Do I just draft best available--Donald Brown at 1.4, Maclin/Greene/Hey-Bey at 1.8?

I like Moreno a great deal more than Brown personally so I'd probably make that move if you don't have to give up too terribly much to get to that pick. I think Moreno would be a great pickup for you as you could use another "feature back" and I think that's what you'll end up getting with him. What are you having to give up to get up there?

The talks are about giving up the 1.4, 1.8, and 2.11 for 1.2 and 1.10. He also threw out the idea of 1.2 for 1.4 and 2.1.

Sadly, this is all assuming that the guy with 1.1 takes Beanie, so if he takes Moreno, all this talk is for naught.
