Rookie Draft -- Take D. Brown at 1.1 -- Am I Nuts??

Postby bocman111 » Thu Aug 20, 2009 1:53 pm

I have the first pick in my rookie draft of my 10 team league (keep 7 each year -- .5ppr - start 3 WR, 2RB, Flex)

Would I be crazy to take Donald Brown first over Moreno? I feel like the Colts when they took Edge over Ricky Williams 10 years ago..

i know but i'm hesitant -- does he catch passes? I'd hate to pass on Moreno, but I just have a feeling about Brown.

Go with your gut. Moreno has already been injured and Brown is the heir apparent to the Colts running game. I've heard nothing but good things about him.

I think that this year there is no clear cut number 1 player out there to draft, actually the person with the highest upside is Crabtree. I think that in 5years from now he could be the best player from this draft, he just needs to get signed and into camp. I think that all of the rb's drafted this year have question marks and you can make a case for Brown, Wells or Morneo. So go with your gut and take the person you like best.
