One last keeper question....WHIR

Postby hammertoes » Tue Aug 04, 2009 7:35 am

I just want to say thanks to everyone that has helped me out so far.

I just have one last keeper question......

I am keeping AJ, Portis, and MB3. Who should my fourth keeper be?

Romo (10)
Witten (13)
LJ (16)
Warner (16)

I've been agonizing over this decision because you can make a case for/against all of them.

Any help will be appreciated. WHIR as always!

(standard scoring, no ppr, 6pts for passing TDs, 2RB-3WR-1RB/WR)

I think I would go with Romo. Warner could have another big season or he could hurt or just plain suck, and that's too big a risk for a keeper. LJ isn't worth it when you are already keeping Portis and MB3. Witten is an option, but I think he is over-valued by a lot of people. TE looks deeper this year than in the past, so you should be able to win with the 6th or 7th best TE.

i'd go with LJ. 16th round pick is too good of a deal to not take a risk on him. he's a nice RB3 play, and it looks like you can start 3 every week.

romo just lost his best target, the cowboys are going to run the football more this year, and you can pick up comparable QB talent in rounds 8-10 like cutler, palmer, cassel or roethlisberger.

I would keep LJ in this scenario. I think you have a greater chance in picking one of the others back up in the draft.
good luck!

I assume you lose the round's pick next to their name, so I think LJ is a value in the new offensive scheme in KC, even though they suck, but he seems like his head is back in the game. You can't go wroing suring up the RB position and you could draft one of the rookies who may pan out, Brown, McCoy, Wells, Moreno to give you more assurance at a solid RB3. Romo, who I think will have average QB numbers is solid at 10, then Witten, who the no PPR drops his stock a bit. I think LJ will catch 40-50 out of the backfiled this yeart which should help his yardage totals a bit.

thanks for help with mine!

I like LJ. For losing a 16th round pick in order to keep LJ who can definitely be a lower-end RB2 it's well worth it. Keep LJ.
A win next week and all is forgotten.

id have to go with LJ hear just cause its a 16th round pick. i mean thats crazy for a guy that could be a top 5 runningback. i think he will be better this year since alot of the off the field stuff has seemed to die down.
