Should I keep Benson or Phillips, or take the 3rd pick?

[rich.willco]

I get 1 keeper, but if I don't keep anyone I have the 3rd overall pick.
I think I can upgrade with the third pick, and still get quality later in the draft...what do you think?

[TruNinerFan]

What top players do you expect to be back in the draft?

[rich.willco]

Hard to say. The keepers are submitted tonight.
My guess of people who would be kept are:
C Johnson
A Pete
Brees
Rodgers
Turner
Moss
Steven Jackson

I guess it comes down to wether or not Benson is considered a tier 1 #1 RB. I think I can get a QB in the second round...Maybe River again? Big Ben maybe...
Thoughts?

DO NOT KEEP BENSON!!!

He is a 3rd tier RB. Don't do it. Please, for the love of god don't you will get much much much better value at #3 overall. And who is Phillips?

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=469928

Take the pick.

[srlarson]

Two things...

1.DONT keep benson take the pick....

2. DON'T EVEN THINK of taking Big Ben in the 2nd round....he is going to miss minimum 4 games....in most leagues with a 13 game season...your done before you start...ben is no better than a 8th round pick regardless of format!!!!

amen....

benson is RB3 and too many people are relying on him do some mass work this year, which won't happen. This season Ben is a kicker, take him late.

[rich.willco]

Good advise.
Thank you all.
What's a good list to use for my picks then?

I don't think I would keep Benson here either, but I think too many people are down on him. Is he a top rb, no, is he a quality low end #1 high end #2 yes. Another factor for him is that it is a contract year and he is playing for a payday next year, so he has the motivation to play hard again this year. Good luck.
