I have the 12 pick (last) in my Keeper league. Its our first year so this is a re-draft with everyone available. Im thinking Slaton and Barber back to back. Any other suggestions? This is my tipical mock draft thus far.
1 Slaton 2 Barber 3 Brandon Marshall / Roy E Williams 4 Marshaw Lynch 5 Dallas Clark / Greg Olsen 6 Lee Evans 7 Jay Cutler / Matt Ryan 8 Running Back or WR Value
Any other suggestions??
'12 Team QB: Brady, Cutler RB: Ridley, Sjax, BGE, Bolden, Hardesty WR: Austin, Wayne, Stevie Johnson, M Williams, A Robinson TE: Gronkowski, Miller, Cook DEF: Falcons K: Hanson

I like the Slaton pick (particularly in a keeper), but 13th overall is a tad early for Barber. I'd rather see you go with one of Gore, Jacobs, or Portis in the 2nd round.
Also, I wouldn't plan on Lynch being there in the 4th round. In a redraft league, that's about where he's going, but in a keeper league, you could easily justify him as a late 2nd round pick.

I'll agree with Jake here. The Dallas RB situation is a little too murky for my liking in an inaugural keeper. Current ADP in and around 10 to 15 is...
DWill Gore Jacobs Portis
I would move Portis above Jacobs but would take all 4 over Barber.
Slaton and Portis is my call here... i also am a little worried about the POSSIBLE 3 way of Carries in D-Town with MB3, Felix and Choice... its going to be at least a 2 headed monster and a value drop seens how its a keeper its not going to get any better as they are all 3 young backs (not an older back splitting with a younger back, where in a year or so it will be the young cat solo)...
i personally wouldn't rank DWill over Portis, Jacobs or Gore...
