RB help

Postby krnrpide 92 » Tue Sep 01, 2009 7:58 pm

My pick is coming up soon, might take an rb. Our league format is 2 qb, 3 wr, 2 rb, 1 wr/rb, 1 te, 1 k, 1 def. default settings with .5 PPR. My draft so far:
1st round- fitz
2nd round- deangelo
3rd round- steve smith

and i might take another RB with my next pick. How would you rank these players?
Kevin smith
pierre thomas
thomas jones
ryan grant
marshawn lynch

or should i take a qb with this pick?
matt ryan or matt schaub

I like smith/grant more than the others (I dont like pierre cuz of mike bell, but am I just overreacting?)
so there are 2 picks before mine, 10 picks before my 5th rounder. one of the rbs is bound to drop to 5th round cuz almost all the teams between my 4th and 5th have rbs already. but if two rbs are taken before my 4th rounder, should I go rb with my pick, or wait till the 5th?

This one is tough since you are in a 2 QB league. You should almost go with a QB because as it stand now you don't have any however, looking at the 2 choices you listed all the good QB's are probably all ready taken so whether you get a QB now or later I don't think it really matters!

I would pick up another RB since you might as well be strong in some CATS since QB is most likely not the CAT you'll be strong in!

I would rank them:

Ryan Grant
Kevin smith
Marshawn Lynch (after returning)
pierre thomas
thomas jones

So......I personally would go Grant/K.Smith with the next pick and either scoop a QB or 2 (not sure on who all the QB's available are?) in the next rounds or another RB if one of these are still available or the next best WR/TE.

Good Luck!

Thanks! I was leaning that way, but just needed someone else to concur.

Other qb's are mcnabb, cutler, big ben, palmer (now we are really getting down the list)

im pretty high on both ryan and schaub.

Thing is, if both smith and grant are available at my pick, im 95% sure they will be available for my 5th rounder since 4 of the 5 teams picking between the two picks have 2 rbs (no WR) already, and the other team has 1 (so unlikely to take two).
So any logical prediction of draft order would be a WR run, but a qb or 2 might be taken... That's my only concern. like a rb that I like might still be there for my 5th round, but ryan or schaub might not...
