I just traded up to get the first overall pick in the redraft of my keeper league. I am currently keeping Andre Johnson, Clinton Portis, Marion Barber, and Larry Johnson (or I might keep Warner instead of LJ--haven't decided yet).

The reason I traded up was because I wanted to snag Calvin Johnson, which I can now do. However, I recently found out that Westbrook will also be available, which I was not expecting.

I'm still leaning towards taking Calvin, since stud WR's are going to be a rare commodity, and I can get good RB's later in the draft.

Am I doing the right thing? I just want to make sure... :-?

If that's why you traded up in the first place, don't over-think it / second-guess yourself. Keeper? Westbrook is an injury-prone, 30-year-old (in Sept). CJ has many seasons left, and is far from his pinnacle.

Megatron. ;-D

Yeah, Megatron is the keeper to take.
Do reach for some rookies RBs though, you have some old talent in your backfield. B. Scott of the Bengals could take the starting job this season and he could slide past some peeps. GL
