Owner Replacement Draft in Dynasty League - Who to take?

Postby FantasySportsMaven » Thu Jun 11, 2009 7:10 pm

This is a three owner, replacement draft in a 12 team H2H Dynasty League with PPR=1 and All TDs = 6.
Start QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR, FL(QB/RB/WR/TE), TE, K, D/ST

I took 2 QBs with my first two picks since we can start 2 QBs each game, top ones were most rare among positions and they were among the top scorers last year in this league.

Current Roster:
QB: Romo, Rivers

I will be OTC in one pick and am wondering who to take with my next two picks since I pick on the turn. I also have the 3rd pick in the future rookie only draft.

Who would be the top 4 players, ranked in order, you would take out of these players?
RB Brian Westbrook, Phi
RB Darren McFadden, Oak
RB Ronnie Brown, Mia
RB Larry Johnson, KC
RB Willis McGahee, Bal
RB Felix Jones, Dal

WR Randy Moss, NE
WR Terrell Owens, Buf
WR Roy Williams, Dal
WR TJ Houshmandzadeh, Sea
WR Santonio Holmes, Pit
WR Jerricho Cotchery, NYJ
WR Devin Hester, Chi
WR Derrick Mason, Bal
WR Donnie Avery, StL
WR Nate Washington, Ten
WR Justin Gage, Ten

TE Chris Cooley, Was
TE Visanthe Shiancoe, Min
TE Zach Miller, Oak

Personally I like Moss and Felix Jones for you...I think Felix will finish as a guy with 1100 or so total yards and more then a handful of TD's and gives you some youth at that spot, Brown I think has one more good year left, same with Westy if he even makes it the whole year, and I always have liked Felix more then McFadden and he should and can out perform him.


I'd go Moss with the other pick because he has more value then the rest of the players available and should provide you with a staple at the WR position...I was looking at Avery there also but Moss could be a top 5 WR 3 more years maybe so he's worth it...Just m/o, but I like those two the most.

I like Felix, but Barber is young too and was having an very good season last year until he got hurt. He'll be in the mix in Dallas for possibly years even if his role is more of that of Lendale White in Tenn.

My only thought about taking Westy was that since I have the 3rd pick in the rookie draft I could also take McCoy and then have Westy and his supposed handcuff?

What if the owner who is OTC right now takes R. Moss? Then who?

Since there is one guy picking right now, I need to see top 3-4 options for my 2 picks since I have no idea who he will take?

Thanks for the help!

Don't take McCoy #3. The top tier is 4 players - Moreno, Wells, Crabtree, Brown - and I wouldn't sway from that. If you really believe in Eagles RB = PPR gold, trade down to #5 or take one of the high valued guys and trade with the guy who takes McCoy.

I would add Moss + either R. Brown or McFadden. If Moss is not there, I'd add Brown and McFadden, and get a WR later cause there are a lot of decent ones there in the replacement draft and you should be able to add Robiskie or DHB at 2.3.

I'm pretty scared to take Westy in dynasties nowadays... but I also think you have to keep a RB or be at risk to fall way behind really quick. If I had more faith in DMac I'd say him... but from what I can see I would take Randy Moss and Brian Westbrook at the turn and then start building for the future after getting some veteran guys in there to help you get in the win column now.

I would stay away from the older players like Moss and Westbrook and I would take either DMac or Jones and in that order.

It really depends on your philosophy. if you want to build a young team go with DMac or Jones if you want older players for a run this year then go with Moss and Westbrook.

Again though I would go you while you can and stay away from the TE for a while.

1. Moss
2. Brown
3. DMac
4. Roy Williams

Moss is the best available talent on the board, and one would think he can offer you several more years of quality production.

Brown is the best available RB IMHO.

DMac is intriguing as there are reports he is seeing time split out at WR -- he could be a Reggie Bush type guy, which is big in PPR.

Roy is a bit of a gamble as he has never quite met the lofty expectations set upon him.... but he is the undisputed #1 WR in Dallas with TO gone. Even though Witten will probably see a ton of targets, Williams should still see what a #1 WR would see. In a high-powered DAL offense, that gives Roy a lot of upside. I know he posted very meager numbers after being traded to DAL, but he will now have an entire offseason to learn the playbook and work on timing with Romo.

Damn, the other owner took Moss.

I'm OTC for two picks.

Now what? Should I go with 2 RBs and hope to pick up some WR sleepers and Crabtree with my 1.03 rookie draft pick?

BAPs right now are:
Westy
R. Brown
McFadden
Felix Jones
TO
Roy Williams
Housh
Holmes

I am leaning towards taking R. Brown and McFadden.
Which 2 of these should I take?
