Good call.

Here is an interesting read over at Sharks on RB v.s. WR

I still think the way to go is RB-WR-RB-WR-WR-TE in a PPR 12 man draft

I personally think it's a poor way to draft to have a "pattern" like that pre-draft that you try to stick to...it's a good way to reach for guys you shouldn't and end up with really bad depth. If you get to the 7th round and you still only have 2 RBs you're going to be in sad sad shape...PPR or not you have to get some good RBs...it might even be MORE important to grab the ones that are better pass catchers so I don't think that pattern would lead to a great team in a PPR league.

You are exactly right, it is just at 1.9, I feel RB-WR....was about the way it might go, judging by ADP and my own rankings. I mean if I get a good #1 RB at pick 9, then at pick 16, one of the big 3 WR are there, it would be very hard not to take one knowing that when my pick rolls around again, pick 33, odds of getting a top notch WR in a PPR, will be slim IMO.

Well I don't have a problem going RB/WR for the first two rounds to secure a top WR in PPR but it's the 4-6 rounds that I disagree with. I think if you get out of the 6th round with less than 3 RBs, you're not going to be in very good shape...I like the WRs you can grab in the 6th round more than the RBs you can grab there so I'd probably shoot for RBs in 3 of the first 5 rounds as long as the value isn't just awful.

I think you can wait on a TE until later than the 6th if you're already planning on waiting until that point anyway.
