What do you guys think?

10 team. 2 qb, 3 wr, 2rb, 1 te.

We keep 5 guys. PPR league.

MY keepers:

WR- Fitz, Andre Johnson, Randy Moss
RB- Westbrook, Ronnie Brown

I get Chris Johnson, Housh and the 6th overall pick (hopefully to get Matt Ryan) and a 3rd rounder

for

Moss, Ronnie Brown, 10th overall and a 4th rounder

Nice ludicrous set of WR's.

I'd keep it that way. I'm pretty high on Ronnie Brown this year, so that may be affecting my decision. The 2QB makes Ryan a little more attractive, but I think you'll be able to find late-round/WW QB's that will produce similar numbers from week to week. He's a good real-game winner, not a fantasy-game winner.

Any chance he'll still be there @ #10? I don't find moving up from the 4th to the 3rd all that enticing just because when the top 50 players are already off the board, things become more of a wash.

thanks for the feedback. I know for a fact that Ryan will be gone by the 9th pick at the latest. I just thought the chance to get Johnson in a keeper is worth it especially considering Housh should be good with Hasselbeck especially in a ppr.

Sorry, didn't realize that your keepers were keepers for life, essentially. This makes CJ42 a little more attractive.

I guess I just see the opportunity to win now with that set of WR's given the PPR. What's your QB situation like? Do you think you can contend for a title or playoff money this year? I think that can dictate your movement on Moss as well.

I think it's a solid move. I'd rather have Johnson and Housh than Moss and Brown, although it's close. And the extra picks make it that much better. I think Johnson gets more love around the goalline this year.

I would make the move. You need a younger Rb to replace Westy and Chris Johnson is as good as it gets. You do downgrade from Moss to Housh, but I think it's worth it.

Thanks guys, I guess one other factor is that after this season we move up to 6 keepers instead of 5 which is a major reason I want to move up to that 6th pick to see if I can get Matt Ryan.

I have Moss ranked as my #1 WR this year. I am targeting Brown for late 3rd-early 4th round in redraft leagues, with the expectation that he will produce like a high-end RB2 or better.

I am not a huge believer in Chris Johnson while White is still around, I think he will disappoint based on many people's preseason rankings. And I also believe the same about Housh. Both are good players, but I'm not sure they will live up to projections.

That said, I like picking up an extra pick, especially in lieu of the fact that you are increasing the number of keepers. I would counter by adding Westy and deleting Brown.

keep what you have, just be sure to draft McCoy.

stay put i think brown will have a good season this year comparable to cj and moss will do at least 15 tds while housh ceiling is probably 10 and moving up 4 picks isnt that enticing i think u could nab a solid qb later in the draft i would pass
