1.01 Seriously Crabtree??????????????

Postby packers140 » Fri May 15, 2009 8:35 am

I want to take a RB but my need is definately WR. I have picks 1.01, 2.06, 2.11 and 4.06. I guess I still can take Moreno or Well then take WR's with 2.06 and 2.11. Or Take Crabtree then RB or WR at 2.06 and then QB at 2.11 depend on where Stafford and Sanchez go. They are the only QBS I'm looking at this year. What should I do????????????????????????????????????

I would personally take Moreno or Wells before Crabtree. But, if you are sold on Crabtree then take him. I know plenty of people who think Crabtree is the best rookie. You are going to have this player for years, so go with your gut.

Trade down. 1.03 may be looking for a RB. IF you can trade dwon and pick up an early 2nd and still get Crabtree... perfect.

I have been giving this same advice. I think #3 is the best rookie pick to have this year. I would even trade down to #3 and see if you can pick up a first rounder next year.

Yeah my thoughts exactly.

But if you aren't able to get fair value by trading down, I would take either RB first. I understand that you need help at the WR spot, but you have some questions at RB as well.... so staying at 1.1 and drafting Wells or Moreno is your best option IMHO. I personally like Wells a little better.

Good luck.

I wouldn't say WR is much more of a need than RB actually. MBIII, Addai, Brown and McGahee all have question marks. How many do you start at each, and is it a PPR?

I guess what I'm saying is you could use both spots, so depending on your starting requirement and scoring system, I'd probably go with the RB at #1. If anything, it'll have more trade value than Crabtree. I'd rather have Moreno or Wells and a WR like Britt, Robiskie, etc. at #2.06 than Crabtree and whatever RB is left at 2.06. If you can trade down to #3 and get something good, that's a good play as well.

Yea, you almost have to take a RB, see what you have and then move one for a WR later if you feel the need...Once you see Wells/Moreno play you could move them for a young established WR, or Barber if you think he'll lose his job, same with Addai, you probably need another runner and then figure out which RB you'd rather ship off for a WR upgrade.

Yeah I've been trying to move down but the guy who has 1.02 has 1.03 also. So he doesn't really care to have the 1.01 because he knows he is getting 2 of the top 3 no matter what.

I know it's already done, but I don't know about that trade. I would have tried to stay in the top 3 and would have gotten a younger WR than Housh. But, you should still get Donald Brown at #4. I hope it works out in the end ;-D
