After my 5 keepers who to take at 2nd and 6th pick.

Postby GoldenHawk » Tue Aug 04, 2009 10:46 pm

Hey guys,

2 QB league, PPR, 10 teams

2 qbs, 2 rbs, 3 wrs, 1 te, 1 def

My keepers:

RB- Adrian Peterson
RB- Pierre Thomas
WR- Randy Moss
WR- Greg Jennings
WR- Steve Smith

I have the 2nd overall pick and 6th overall pick (as well as 19 later on). My question is who do i take with these first two picks given its 2 qbs and i am keeping none, but also considering that after this year we are adding a flex and 6th keeper (ie making rbs/wr more important).

The guys of note available are:

Jay Cutler
Kevin Smith
Antonio Gates
Antonio Bryant
Matt Schaub
Roy Williams
Vincent Jackson
Tony G
Ryan Grant
LJ
Derrick Ward
Rookies ie Beanie and Moreno
Cassel
Hasslebeck
Garrard
Orton

1- Knowshon Moreno--- Best talent here. AP, Pierre, and Moreno hard to beat
2- Kevin Smith--- You can't have enough good, young rb's in a keeper
3- Beanie Wells--- Big, strong, fast, tough as a snowflake
4- Matt Schaub--- Gets to throw to Andre on Sundays
5- Jay Cutler--- Better talent than Schaub, but no wr's
6- Ryan Grant--- I'm not convinced he's the "real deal"
7- Derrick Ward--- Should get the bulk of the carries
8- Vincent Jackson--- Youngest of the 3 wr's here
9- Roy Williams--- Can he be a true #1?
10- Antonio Bryant--- I'm better than Josh Freeman
11- Matt Cassel--- Now we find out if it was all Randy and Wes
12- Antonio Gates--- TE has very little positional value
13- Tony Gonzalez--- People forget he averaged 4 td's in the 3 seasons before last year
14- Kyle Oton--- Bad qb with good receivers
15- David Garrard--- Good qb with bad receivers
16- Matt Hasseleck--- Should have 1 or 2 good years with Housh
17- Larry Johnson--- Old and washed-up

Ideally you take a RB and a QB with your first 2 picks: Schaub/Cutler and KSmith/Moreno/Grant.
I'd target the QB first since you have none, and the dropoff from Schaub to Cutler to Garrard/Cassel is pretty steep. I see Smith, Moreno, and Grant as being relatively more equal in production. All young and talented and in good situations. Hopefully you snag one of them with the 6th pick.

Thanks guys, any other thoughts?

Most people prefer Schaub to Cutler? and Moreno to Smith?

YES 100%. Since you start 2QB's take one at 6th. I would think to lock up Moreno at #2 if he is there. You have an amazing start with 2stud RB and 3 stud WR's. Thats huge! If you can get Cassel,Cutler,Schaub your golden. So I would take 2 of them with 2 of your 3 picks.

Good luck!
